Abstract

Compounds, compositions, and methods comprising a polyamine compound are described, which may be used to kill, disperse, treat, or reduce biofilms, or to inhibit or substantially prevent biofilm formation. In certain aspects, the present invention relates to compounds, compositions, and methods comprising polyamine compounds that have antimicrobial or dispersing activity against a variety of bacterial strains capable of forming biofilms.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An anti-biofilm composition, the composition comprising
(i) a carrier; and
(ii) a biocidal polyamine compound of the formula:

or a salt thereof;
wherein:
each R a is an independently selected group of the formula:

each R m is —CR 2a R 2b —,
each R 2a and R 2b is a member independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, and fluoroalkyl; or, alternatively, R 2a and R 2b join to form a spirocycloalkyl ring;
each R 3 is a member independently selected from the group consisting of —Z 1 —Y 1 —R 4 and —Z 1 —Y 1 —Y 2 —R 4 ;
each R 4 is a member independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, fluoroalkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, arylalkyl, and heteroarylalkyl;
each Y 1 and Y 2 is an independently selected group of the formula:

each Z 1 and Z 2 is an independently selected NR 4 ; and
wherein the biocidal polyamine compound comprises at least four primary or secondary amino groups.

2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the biocidal polyamine compound comprises at least six primary or secondary amino groups.

3. The composition of claim 1 , wherein R m is —CH 2 —.

4. The composition of claim 3 , wherein the biocidal polyamine salt is a hydrochloride.

5. The composition of claim 3 , wherein R 4 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl.

6. The composition of claim 5 , wherein R 4 is isobutyl.

7. The composition of claim 5 , wherein the biocidal polyamine compound is selected from the group consisting of

and a salt thereof.

8. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is a wash solution, a dressing, a wound gel, or a synthetic tissue.

9. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is a tablet, a pill, a troche, a capsule, an aerosol spray, a gel, a paste, a cream, or a foam.

10. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is coated on or impregnated into a surface of a medical device.

11. The composition of claim 10 , wherein the medical device is a clamp, a forceps, a scissors, a skin hook, tubing, a needle, a retractor, a scaler, a drill, a chisel, a rasp, a saw, a catheter, an orthopedic device, an artificial heart valve, a prosthetic joint, a voice prosthetic, a stent, a shunt, a pacemaker, a surgical pin, a respirator, a ventilator, and an endoscope.

12. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the anti-biofilm composition is selected from the group consisting of a shampoo, a bath additive, a liquid soap, a solid soap, a lotion, a cream, a deodorant, a moist cleaning cloth, an oil, and a powder.

13. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the anti-biofilm composition is a paint.

14. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the anti-biofilm composition is a pipe coating, a flush solution, or pipeline flush solution.

15. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the anti-biofilm composition is a sanitizing wipe, a cleanser, or a toilet bowl insert.
