Benzyldodecyldimethylammonium Chloride Dihydrate Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Benzyldodecyldimethylammonium chloride dihydrate is a quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) and can be used as a biocide to target antibiotic-resistant bacteria, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), multidrug-resistant (MDR) P. aeruginosa et. al. Benzyldodecyldimethylammonium chloride dihydrate, an antimicrobial agent, bacteriostatic or bactericidal properties depending on the concentration.
