Product Information

• Name: Orange G, Technical grade
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Orange G is a quaternary ammonium salt that can be used for the treatment of wastewater. It has been shown to adsorb to the surface of bacterial cells and inhibit their growth by preventing enzyme activity. Orange G has also been shown to have carcinogenic potential in experimental models, although it is less potent than dimethylhydrazine or N-nitrosodiethylamine. Orange G has genotoxic effects on human serum, as seen by increased DNA fragmentation and chromosomal aberrations. The kinetic and redox properties of Orange G are still being investigated.
