Abstract

A method is proposed for imparting antimicrobial activity to phosphorus-containing cellulose and carbon materials entailing the adsorption of antibiotic aminoglycosides such as kanamycin, gentamycin, and amikacin on fibrous cellulose and carbon ion exchangers in acid and salt forms. The interaction of the polymer complexes with the base material was confirmed by IR spectral and differential thermal analysis data. The polymeric composite fiber materials were shown to be nontoxic and have prolonged strong antibiotic activity.
