a Molecular weight (Mn,NMR) calculated from 1H NMR with an accuracy of integration of ±5%; b Minimum inhibitory concentration which prevents the visible growth of 100% of the bacteria within 20 h monitoring time; c Inoculum size = 1 × 106–2 × 106 CFU·mL−1; d HC50: concentration causing 50% lysis (hemolysis) of red blood cells (RBCs) relative to Triton X-100 (positive control, 100%), linear polyglycidol PG27 (1) HC50 >> 500 µg/mL; e Non-growth value due to turbidity of solution caused by the polymer; f 10–500 µg/mL of polymer 5 causing agglutination of RBC, and about 6% (at 10 µg/mL)–40% (at 500 µg/mL) hemolysis.
