Development of new wood preservative containing neonicotinoid compounds, azole compounds, organoiodine compounds and quaternary ammonium compounds

Antibacterial Activity of Some New Azole Compounds

[Quaternary ammonium compounds--new occupational hazards].

Quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs, quats) belong to organic ionic chemical agents which display unique properties of both surfactants and disinfectants. Their wide distribution in the work environment and also in private households brings about new occupational hazards. This paper reviews reports about the health effects of QACs. QACs could play a role of sensitizers and irritants to the skin...

Interactions of Quaternary Ammonium Compounds and Proteins

A simple met.hod of titration with a cationic detergent has been developed which permits rapid estimation of the concentration of urinary protein with a minimum of manipulations and time. The method depends on the formation of an insoluble anion-cation complex between quaternary ammonium ions, hereinafter referred to as the cationic detergent, and proteins, in the present instance mainly human ...
