Abstract

Herein, we identify Supramolecular Self-associating Amphiphiles (SSAs) as a novel class of antibacterials with activity towards Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Structure-activity relationships have been identified in the solid, solution and gas phases. Finally, we show that when supplied in combination, SSAs exhibit increased antibacterial efficacy against these clinically relevant microbes.
