Beschreibung

Cyclohexylmethanethiol is a reactive chemical that is a colorless liquid with a strong odor. It is an organic compound belonging to the group of polybasic, hydroxamic acids and has been found to be an antimicrobial agent. Cyclohexylmethanethiol reacts with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of bacteria and damages the cell wall by disrupting the cross-linking of peptidoglycan. This reaction product inhibits bacterial growth by binding to proteins in the cell membrane, which prevents essential molecules from entering or exiting the cell. Cyclohexylmethanethiol also reacts with alkylthio groups on proteins in bacterial cells, which alters their function and leads to protein denaturation.
