The Electroreduction of Quaternary Ammonium Compounds

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 ...

para-Substituted N-nitroso-N-oxybenzenamine ammonium salts: a new class of redox-sensitive nitric oxide releasing compounds.

N-Nitroso-N-oxybenzenamine ammonium salts with -OMe, -Me, -H, -F, -Cl, -CF3, and -SO2Me substituents at the para position of the phenyl ring constitute a new class of-redox sensitive nitric oxide (NO) releasing compounds. These compounds yield nitric oxide and the corresponding nitrosobenzene derivatives by a spontaneous dissociation mechanism after undergoing a one electron oxidation. Oxidatio...

[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...
