Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of metronidazole containing polymer and copolymers

Homopolymer and copolymers containing metronidazole (MTZ) drug were synthesized. Acryloyl chloride was reacted with MTZ (drug) to produce monomer containing MTZ, and then the monomer was copolymerized with various amounts of methyl methacrylate. The produced monomer, homopolymer, and copolymers were...

Zusammenfassung:Homopolymer and copolymers containing metronidazole (MTZ) drug were synthesized. Acryloyl chloride was reacted with MTZ (drug) to produce monomer containing MTZ, and then the monomer was copolymerized with various amounts of methyl methacrylate. The produced monomer, homopolymer, and copolymers were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and ¹H-NMR. The antimicrobial activities of the synthesized polymers were tested against Kelpsilic as fungal organisms, and Escherichia coli, Bacillus subitilus, and Pesudomonus areuginosa as bacteria organisms.
