  • Does dodecyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride harm honeybees?
  • Dodecyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride (DDBAC) is a widely used disinfectant, yet its hazards to non-target species remain largely unknown. We are unaware of any studies assessing DDBAC’s impacts on honeybee, a pollinator species that is a useful indicator of environmental pollution essential for many forms of agricultural production.
  • Are chlorine-based disinfectants antimicrobial and anti-biofilm effective in Pou drinking water?
  • This study investigated the antimicrobial and anti-biofilm activity of three chlorine-based disinfectants (hypochlorite ions [OCl -], hypochlorous acid [HOCl] and electrochemically activated solutions [ECAS]) for use in POU drinking water applications.
  • Which disinfectants were used in the study?
  • Three disinfectants were used throughout this study: NaOCl, neutral slightly acidic HOCl and electrochemically generated acidic HOCl. The dominant chlorine species present in NaOCl was OCl -, whereas HOCl was dominant in both the neutral and acidic HOCl solutions.
  • What is the antimicrobial effect of ddbac?
  • The antimicrobial effect of DDBAC is predominantly attributable to its destruction of the lipid bilayer of bacterial cell membranes, interference with the activities of membrane-bound enzymes, and dissipation of the proton motive force ( Tezel and Pavlostathis, 2011, Gravel et al., 2017 ).
