Effects of quaternization on the morphological stability and antibacterial activity of electrospun poly(DMAEMA-co-AMA) nanofibers

- Quaternization endows the nanofibers with stable morphology and antibacterial activity.
- Antibacterial nanofibers can be facilely prepared from simply synthesized polymers.
- Mobility of the quaternized N+ is the necessary prerequisite for antibacterial activity.
