Percutaneous absorption of an antimicrobial organosilicon quarternary ammonium chloride in rabbits.

چکیده
The percutaneous absorption of an organosilicon quaternary ammonium chloride (14C)-3-(trimethoxysilyl)-propyldimethyloctadecyl ammonium chloride (14C-Si-QAC) was studied in rabbits. Aqueous solution of 14C-Si-QAC was either applied to the intact, clipped back of animals for 10 days or administered by a single intravenous dose. Urine and feces were collected at 24-h intervals and tissue concentration of radioactivity was determined at the end of the 10-day study period. Elimination of 14C-Si-QAC after parenteral administration was slow and occurred by both urine and feces (13.5% in urine and 20% in feces). No radioactivity was found in the urine of dermally treated animals. Tissue concentrations of 14C were highest in the liver, lung and kidneys after i.v. administration. None was detected in tissues of dermally treated animals. The results showed that the absorption of 14C-Si-QAC through the skin of the rabbit was essentially zero. The potential absorption hazard of the use of this antimicrobial agent in contact with the skin is therefore considered to be insignificant.

The aim of our study was twofold: to immobilize an organosilicon quaternary ammonium salt (3-(trimethoxysilyl)-propyldimethyl-octadecyl ammonium chloride, Si-QAC) on the surface of pure titanium and to investigate the antimicrobial activity of Si-QAC-immobilized titanium against microbial adherence and biofilm formation. The results of ToF-SIMS analysis of Si-QAC-titanium suggested the possibil...
متن کاملAn Investigation into the Effect of Various Penetration Enhancers on Percutaneous Absorption of Piroxicam
Achieving a desirable percutaneous absorption of drug molecule is a major concern in formulating dermatological products. The use of penetration enhancers could provide a successful mean for this purpose. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of incorporating a few common penetration enhancers (in different concentrations) into a 0.5% w/w piroxicam (model drug) gel formulation, on th...

Abstract: Oxidizer constitute most part of propellant and ammonium perchlorate is most used oxidizer in solid propellant among other oxidizer. Coating is one method to prevent agglomeration of ammonium perchlorate or to create other desirable properties on ammonium perchlorate. Usually type of coating agent and method of coating are selected on base of purpose of coating. Target of coating per...
