Anti-bacterial properties of hyperbranched poly (epsilon-lysine) peptides dendrons for wound dressing applications: molecular specie-specific effects

The present study shows that hyperbranched poly(epsilon-Lysine) dendrons can be used for wound S. aureus infection prevention, as an alternative to silver, either in soluble form or when used to impregnate the fibres of clinically-available, tulle- or hydrogel-based wound dressings.
