This work presents the outcomes of a comparative study of molecular interactions of polymyxin B (PMB) and F12 and F13 formulations in the mole ratios of 1:2 and 1:3 of PMB:sodium deoxycholate sulfate (SDCS), respectively, and a commercial PMB formulation (CPMB) with lipopolysaccharides (LPS). Several spectroscopic and interfacial studies were performed to obtain LPS-peptide interactions at a molecular level. The fluorescence titrimetry method revealed that the F12 formulation (325 nM) exhibited a lower number of binding sites to the LPS compared to CPMB and F13 as well as PMB alone (537 nM). Similarly, in the presence of LPS, the F12 formulation (88 nm) exhibited smaller particle sizes in the dynamic light scattering study compared to PMB (116 nm), CPMB, and the F13 formulation. An interfacial study and circular dichroism spectroscopy revealed PMB and CPMB insertion into the LPS micelles to destabilize and disrupt the LPS membrane, whereas the F12 and F13 formulations may induce pseudo-aggregation. The NMR and IR studies showed that the presence of SDCS, the hydrophobicity of PMB increased by hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions and formed stabilized PMB-SDCS micelles. The PMB-SDCS formulation is likely to release PMB for easy penetration into the lipid membrane and cause disruption of the complex LPS micelles. Furthermore, the PMB-SDCS formulations neutralized and detoxified the LPS micelles with minimal toxicity to normal kidney tubular cells as well as an immortalised kidney cell line. The antimicrobial properties of PMBloaded SDCS nanomicelles were effective against a resistant strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
