N-LAUROYLSARCOSINE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

white adhering powder

Uses

N-Lauroylsarcosine may be used as a permeation enhancer in the transdermal drug delivery formulations since it increases the fluidity of stratum corneum lipid structure of the skin

Definition

ChEBI: N-Lauroylsarcosine is a N-acyl-amino acid.

General Description

N-Lauroylsarcosine is an anionic surfactant with an ability to denature proteins. Due to its microbicidal property, N-lauroylsarcosine is being considered as a potent anti-microbicide in topical formulations,?especially against sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).

Flammability and Explosibility

Non flammable
