Laurylisoquinolinium bromide

Description:

Laurylisoquinolinium bromide is a quaternary ammonium compound characterized by its long hydrophobic alkyl chain and a positively charged isoquinolinium moiety. This substance typically appears as a white to off-white powder and is soluble in water, which is attributed to its ionic nature. It exhibits surfactant properties, making it useful in various applications, including as a disinfectant, antimicrobial agent, and in formulations for personal care products. The presence of the long alkyl chain contributes to its ability to interact with lipid membranes, enhancing its efficacy in disrupting microbial cell structures. Additionally, Laurylisoquinolinium bromide is known for its stability and low toxicity, making it suitable for use in both industrial and consumer applications. Its antimicrobial activity is particularly notable against a range of bacteria and fungi, which has led to its incorporation in formulations aimed at infection control and hygiene. As with many quaternary ammonium compounds, it is important to handle Laurylisoquinolinium bromide with care, following appropriate safety guidelines to mitigate any potential risks.

Lauryl isoquinolinium bromide

CAS: 93-23-2

Lauryl isoquinolinium bromide is a pyridinium cationic surfactant that is used as a diagnostic agent and pharmaceutical preparation. It is also used as an antimicrobial agent in liquid chromatography, which is a technique to separate chemical compounds. Lauryl isoquinolinium bromide has been shown to be effective against Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis, and Gram-negative bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Lauryl isoquinolinium bromide has also been shown to be effective against yeast such as Candida albicans. Lauryl isoquinolinium bromide is not effective against viruses or fungi. This agent can be used to enhance the permeability of membranes during cross-linking reactions between polymers.
