The Bacteriostatic Activity of 2-Phenylethanol Derivatives Correlates with Membrane Binding Affinity
The hydrophobic tails of aliphatic primary alcohols do insert into the hydrophobic core of a lipid bilayer. Thereby, they disrupt hydrophobic interactions between the lipid molecules, resulting in a decreased lipid order, i.e., an increased membrane fluidity. While aromatic alcohols, such as 2-pheny...
