Cationic surfactants from lysine: Synthesis, micellization and biological evaluation
چکیده انگلیسی

Biocompatible cationic surfactants from the amino acid lysine (hydrochloride salts of Nɛ-lauroyl lysine methyl ester, Nɛ-myristoyl lysine methyl ester and Nɛ-palmitoyl lysine methyl ester) have been prepared in high yields by lysine acylation in ɛ position with three natural saturated fatty acids. The micellization process of these surfactants has been studied using the PGSE-NMR technique. The compounds were tested as antimicrobial agents against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The surfactants show moderate antimicrobial activity against the Gram-positive bacteria but Gram-negative bacteria are resistant to these surfactants in the concentration range tested. The haemolytic activity is considerably lower than those reported for other cationic Nα-acyl amino acid analogues. The acute toxicity against Daphnia magna and biodegradability was studied. The toxicity is clearly lower than that reported for conventional cationic surfactants from quaternary ammonium and the three surfactants from lysine can be classified as ready biodegradable surfactants.

Cationic Nɛ-acyl lysine methyl ester surfactants were prepared using classical synthetic methods. We were evaluated for such physicochemical properties as critical micellar concentration and also such biological properties as antimicrobial activity, ecotoxicity, biodegradation and haemolytic activity.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
