biocide

Dehydroacetic acid (Methylacetopyronone), a pyrone derivative, is served frequently as a fungicide and bactericide.

Benzyldodecyldimethylammonium chloride dihydrate can be used as an insecticide reagent. It can target drug-resistant bacteria, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, etc., in a concentration-dependent manner.

Chloramine-T (Chloralone) is a N-chlorinated, and N-deprotonated sulfonamide, used as a biocide and a mild disinfectant.

Benzalkonium chloride (Alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride) is a cationic surface-acting agent containing the quaternary ammonium group. It has three main categories of use: as a cationic surfactant, a biocide, and phase transfer agent in the chemical industry. This compound is a heterogeneous mixture of alkylbenzyldimethylammonium chlorides of multiple even-numbered alkyl chain lengths.

MOSLOFLAVONE showed promising anti-inflammatory activity via inhibition of TNF-α and IL-1β with IC50 values of 0.71 μM and 7.8 μM, respectively.

Polixetonium chloride is a cooling tower biocide.

Methylchloroisothiazolinone/methylisothiazolinone mixture (MCIT/MIT) is a mixture of isothiazolinone-derived biocides.1,2It is effective against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria with MIC values of 0.0002, 0.0002, 0.00005, and 0.00005% (w/w) forS. aureus,P. aeruginosa,A. niger, andC. albicans, respectively.2MCIT/MIT can elicit contact sensitization.3Formulations containing MCIT/MIT have been used for controlling microbial growth in industrial and household products. 1.Frenzel, E., Schmidt, S., Niederweis, M., et al.Importance of porins for biocide efficacy against Mycobacterium smegmatisApplied and Environmental Microbiology77(9)3068-3073(2011) 2.Lundov, M.D., Johansen, J.D., Zachariae, C., et al.Low-level efficacy of cosmetic preservativesInt.

Halazone (Pantocid) is fine white powder with an odor of chlorine. It has been widely used to disinfect drinking water.

Dodine is a fungicide used to control scab on apples, pears, and pecans, brown rot of peaches, and several foliar diseases of peaches, strawberries, cherries, sycamore trees, and black walnuts. It is also used as an industrial biocide and preservative.

Methylisothiazolinone is a powerful synthetic biocide and preservative.

Tetrachlorohydroquinone (TCHQ), a metabolite of the organochlorine biocide pentachlorophenol, is cytotoxic to RTL-W1 rainbow trout liver cells (EC50 = 1.55 μM in a neutral red assay). TCHQ increases production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), inhibits apoptosis, and induces loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and necrosis in splenocytes.

Tosylchloramide sodium trihydrate is an agent of disinfectant. It is also used as a biocide in air fresheners and deodorants.

Methylisothiazolinone (MI) is a powerful synthetic biocide and preservative within the group of isothiazolinones.

Tosylchloramide sodium salt is a N-chlorinated and N-deprotonated sulfonamide used as a biocide and a mild disinfectant.

Lapyrium is a cationic surfactant that is used in personal care products as a biocide and antistatic. It is also used by the chloride salt, lapyrium chloride, in waste-water treatment and corrosion inhibition formulations.

2-Chloroacetamide is a versatile chemical compound with several applications. Acting as a preservative and herbicide, it effectively controls vegetation in upland areas as well as paddy fields. Additionally, it serves as a biocide in diverse sectors including agriculture, glues, paints, and coatings. Notably, 2-Chloroacetamide demonstrates inhibitory properties toward very-long-chain fatty acid elongase, further highlighting its multifaceted nature.
