Product name: Benzalkonium bromide ; Benzyldodecyldimethylammonium Bromide
Cas No.: 7281-04-1
Benzalkonium bromide can effectively kill a variety of non-spore-forming pathogenic Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria and certain fungi.
Benzalkonium bromide has strong infiltration and permeability, which helps to eliminate bacteria that have just entered the tissue.
Benzalkonium bromide is non-corrosive and non-irritating, causes no damage to tissues, does not affect tissue healing, does not increase scar formation, and has no systemic toxic or side effects.
Pharmacological effect
Benzyldodecyldimethylammonium bromide is a cationic surfactant type of fungicide.
Benzyldodecyldimethylammonium bromide can reduce surface tension and emulsify fat, thus having a cleaning and decontamination effect.
Moreover, Benzalkonium bromide can alter the permeability of the cell membrane, causing some important cytoplasmic substances within the bacteria to seep out, hindering their metabolic processes and leading to the death of the bacteria.
Benzyldodecyldimethylammonium bromide is effective against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria (but ineffective against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, acidobacteria and bacterial spores), has low toxicity, strong and rapid decontamination effect, strong bactericidal power, and no skin irritation or corrosive effect
