Abstract: Provided is an antibacterial composition comprising at least one compound including a quaternary ammonium structure having an acrylate group or a methacrylate group, and having an antibacterial strength A of 90% or more against at least one strain selected from Gram-positive bacteria and Gram-negative bacteria, and an acute oral toxicity dose LD50 of 300 mg/Kg or more, where the antibacterial strength A equals (1?Asample/AReference)×100, where Asample equals an absorbance of an inoculated medium solution incubated with the antibacterial composition, and AReference equals an absorbance of an inoculated medium solution incubated without addition of the antibacterial composition.
