Popis: Polymer nanoparticles have attracted attention as antibacterial materials, but the function of the polymer itself has not yet been clarified sufficiently. To estimate the essential surface properties of antibacterial polymer nanoparticles, herein, we synthesized cationic polystyrene (PSt) nanoparticles via soap-free emulsion polymerization using 2,2'-azobis-[2-(1,3-dimethyl-4,5-dihydro-1
