• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Benzoquinone monoxime (BQM) is a phospholipid analog that has reactive properties. It reacts with hydrochloric acid to form a nitrite ion, which is then reduced to nitric oxide. Nitric oxide has been shown to be effective in the treatment of bacterial infections and as a disinfectant. BQM also reacts with hydroxyl groups, producing sephadex g-100, which is used for separation of biological materials. The reaction mechanism of BQM has been studied using deuterium isotope labeling and electrochemical detection. This reaction takes place on the cytosolic surface of bacteria and on protein synthesis enzymes in the cytoplasm.
