Informations sur le produit

• Marque: Biosynth
• Description: Chlorhexidine is a disinfectant that is used as an antiseptic and preservative. It is active against a wide range of microorganisms, including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, fungi, and enveloped viruses. Chlorhexidine binds to human serum proteins and forms stable complexes. The chlorhexidine–protein complex binds to the mitochondrial membrane potential in human erythrocytes, which may be due to the formation of hydrogen bonds with phosphate groups on the protein surface. This irreversible binding leads to a decrease in the mitochondrial membrane potential, resulting in cell death by apoptosis or necrosis. Triclosan is commonly added as an antimicrobial agent in personal care products such as toothpastes and soaps, although it has shown some resistance among Gram-positive bacteria. Chlorhexidine has also been shown to have allergic symptoms in humans when applied topically or taken orally.
