Tobramycin-based cationicamphiphiles differing in the chemical bond linking their hydrophobic and hydrophilic parts were synthesized and biologically evaluated. Several compounds demonstrated potent antimicrobial activities compared to the parent drug. One analogue exhibited a significant reduction in red blood cells hemolysis, demonstrating that it is possible to maintain the antimicrobial potency

Amphiphilic tobramycinanalogues with potent antibacterial activity against tobramycin‐resistant bacteria were synthesized. Most analogues were found to be less prone to deactivation by aminoglycoside‐modifying enzymes than tobramycin. These compounds target the bacterial membrane rather than the ribosome (see picture). The lipophilic residue of these analogues is key to their antibacterial potency
