Definitions

  • One goal in the application of antimicrobial agents is to immobilize one or more drugs that reduce the proliferation and / or infectivity of microorganisms on the surface of substrates such that the agents are not uncontrolled during use washed down the surface and thus the protection is lost. Since different surfaces are treated very differently, for example, washed or exposed to the weather, various immobilization techniques are used. These methods often also cause inactivation of the antimicrobial agents or they do not firmly bond the antimicrobial agents to the surfaces such that the contaminants are washed out too quickly and the surfaces lose their antimicrobial properties.
  • An object of the present invention is to develop the simplest possible method for immobilizing one or more antimicrobial active substances that can be used for different active substances and different surfaces.
  • the method using the cysteine-rich protein hydrophobin should also not lead to inactivation of the antimicrobial effect.
  • cationic antimicrobial agents eg the antiseptic polyhexamethylene biguanide
  • a method for immobilization on surfaces is therefore of particular interest for the class of cationic antimicrobial agents.
  • the adsorption of the antimicrobial agent polyhexamethylene biguanide on cellulose substrates was described. The active substance is applied to hydrophilic, anionic surfaces (see R.
  • antimicrobial peptides presuppose model surfaces having functional groups or introducing functional groups on inert polymer surfaces (such as silicone and PVC) (see S. Haynie et al., Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 02-1995, 301-307; Humblot et al., Biomaterials 30, 2009, 3503-3512).
  • the functional groups or the antimicrobial active substances to be immobilized have to be activated in order to form covalent bonds.
  • introducing functional groups and enabling them are additional steps that involve both technical effort and cost.
  • covalent immobilization significantly reduces the effects of antimicrobial agents such that the so-treated surfaces are not able to effectively prevent bacterial colonization (see V. Humblot 2009, Bagheri et al., Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy , 03-2009, 1 132-1141).
  • a technical alternative to the covalent immobilization of cationic drugs is the adsorption by means of polyelectrolyte layers.
  • the cationic active substance can itself be a polyelectrolyte (see US2007 / 0243237) or the cationic active substance can be embedded in a polyelectrolyte layer (see US2009 / 0258045).
  • US2007 / 0243237 describes a process for applying an anti-microbial coating in which a negatively charged polyelectrolyte component and a positively charged polyelectrolyte component are applied as a film to a substrate, wherein at least one the components have anti-microbial activity.
  • a known biocidal component can be covalently bound to a charged polymer.
  • a coated structure is described, which is coated on the one hand with a charged, anti-microbial peptide and on the other hand with a poly-electrolyte component.
  • Hydrophobins are known as small, cysteine-rich proteins, which, for. B. occur in filamentous fungi such as Schizophyllum commune. Naturally occurring hydrophobins often have about 100 to 150 amino acids. They usually have eight cysteine units in the molecule. Hydrophobins can be isolated from natural sources, but they can also be obtained by genetic engineering, as disclosed, for example, in WO 2006/082251 or WO 2006/131564.
  • hydrophobins as emulsifiers, thickeners, surface-active substances, for hydrophilicizing hydrophobic surfaces, for improving the water resistance of hydrophilic substrates, for producing oil-in-water emulsions or for water-in-oil emulsions.
  • pharmaceutical applications such as the production of ointments or creams and cosmetic applications such as skin protection or the production of hair shampoos or hair rinses are proposed.
  • WO 2006/082253 discloses formulations for coating surfaces, eg. B. of finely divided inorganic or organic particles, with hydrophobins. For this purpose, the aqueous hydrophobin solutions are applied to the surface to be coated.
  • WO 2006/103215 discloses the use of hydrophobins for stain-resistant treatment of hard surfaces, such as floors.
  • WO 2006/103230 discloses the use of aqueous formulations of hydrophobins for the surface treatment of hardened mineral building materials.
  • WO 2004/000880 describes the noncovalent binding of antibodies, enzymes, peptides, lipids, nucleic acids and carbohydrates to hydrophobin-treated surfaces.
