Nonidet P-40 is a nonionic, non-denaturing detergent. Its official IUPAC name is octylphenoxypolyethoxyethanol. Nonidet P-40 is sometimes abbreviated as NP-40, but should not be confused with a different detergent by the same name NP-40 , nonylphenoxypolyethoxyethanol of the Tergitol NP series of Dow Chemicals.
NP-40 (also known as Tergitol-type NP-40 and nonyl phenoxypolyethoxylethanol [1]) is a commercially available detergent with CAS Registry Number 9016-45-9. NP-40 is an ethoxylated nonylphenol for non-ionic surfactants and can act as emulsifier and demulsifier agent.
It is occasionally used for the treatment of stabilisation of joints that regularly dislocate, particularly in patients with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. [3] In the UK, Ireland, Italy, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, it is sold under the trade-name Fibro-Vein in concentrations of 0.2%, 0.5%, 1.0%, and 3%.
IGEPAL CA-630 has HLB of 13.4, similar to that of Triton X-100 (13.4) and thus belongs to the detergent range (HLB 13-15); this is significantly less than 17.8 of tergitol NP-40 or 16.7 of Polysorbate 20 (also known as Tween 20), which both belong in the solubilizer range (15-18) of HLB. [2] Ca-630 is completely miscible with water.
Polysorbate 20 (common commercial brand names include Kolliphor PS 20, [2] Scattics, Alkest TW 20, Tween 20, and Kotilen-20) is a polysorbate-type nonionic surfactant formed by the ethoxylation of sorbitan monolaurate.
XLT Agar (Xylose Lysine Tergitol-4) is a selective culture medium for the isolation and identification of salmonellae from food and environmental samples. It is similar to XLD agar; however, the agar is supplemented with the surfactant, Tergitol 4, which causes inhibition of Proteus spp. and other non-Salmonellae. [1]
Agent Orange, a defoliant used by the British in the Malayan Emergency and the U.S. in the Vietnam War, was equal parts 2,4,5-T and 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid). 2,4,5-T itself is toxic with a NOAEL of 3 mg/kg/day and a LOAEL of 10 mg/kg/day. [3] Agent Pink contained 100% 2,4,5-T (dioxin contaminates included). Additionally, the ...
4-Amino-3-hydrazino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole is an organic compound with the formula SC 2 N 3 H(NH 2)(N 2 H 3). The compound consists of a 1,2,4-triazole heterocycle with three functional groups: amine, thioamide and hydrazyl. X-ray crystallography shows that this molecule is polar but with a C=S double bond. It is prepared by the reaction of ...
