Good antibacterial activities were observed for all tested copolymers. It was demonstrated that gram-positive bacteria were more sensitive than gram-negatives, and KFCQ agent was more active than KFB and KFC‎‎. %U https://pharmacophorejournal.com/article/in-vitro-study-of-the-antimicrobial-effect-of-synthesized-copolymer-compounds-against-staphylococcus-aureus-and-escherichia-coli-strains
