Cationic polymers are promising antibacterial agents since they have a low propensity for bacteria to evolve resistance, but they usually have low biocompatibility due to their hydrophobic moieties. Herein, we report a new biodegradable and biocompatible chitosan-derived cationic antibacterial polym...
