adminWhat does potassium oleate mean?
Potassium oil, also called Potassium cit-9-octadecenoate. C18H33KO2 is its chemical formula. Potassium oil is either a solid brown or transparent liquid. It’s a fatty acid potassium, which is found in natural soaps. This type of potassium catalyst is used primarily as a catalyst to react polyisohydrourethane with polyurethane. This potassium catalyst can be used to emulsify and deter. It kills all bacteria except MRSA and removes biofilm-forming MRSA effectively.
Is sodium oleate unsafe or dangerous?
CONSIDERED HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE ACCORDING OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1200. The material can be irritating to the eyes, nose and throat. Intentional or accidental ingestion may cause serious health problems. It is uncommon to get acute potassium poisoning from swallowing, as vomiting often occurs and renal excretion can be rapid.
Potassium Oleate is approved by the FDA for safe use in foods and the manufacturing of food components. It can also be used to “bind, emulsify and prevent caking.” Potassium Oleate may also be used in household cleaning products as a cleanser.
How is potassium oil used?
Potassium oil is both a potassium and trimerization catalyst of polyurethane polyisocyanurate. It’s widely used in PIR foam systems for polyurethane insulation board. It is used extensively in rubber adhesives, foaming agents and release agents. Potassium Oleate acts as an emulsifier for many liquid soaps. It is also used to make facial cleansers, mustache waxes and body washes. Emulsifiers are surfactants that reduce liquid surface tension. Potassium Oleate keeps these chemicals from becoming separate chemicals by preventing them from being separated.
Can potassium oleate be natural?
Potassium Oleate can be found in vegetable oils, such as sunflower oil. This ingredient is essential for soapmaking in order to create vegetable glycerin soaps. Although it can be irritating in pure form, soapmaking uses it to make vegetable glycerin soaps.
How does potassium oleate get made?
The different qualities of potassium oil products mean that potassium oleate solutions (potassium-oleate concentration is below 30%) are colorless to yellow viscous liquids, while pasty potassium oils (potassium–oleate contents is between 70 and 92%) are light yellow, soft paste solids, paste potassium oils (potassium–oleate composition is from 70% to 92%), and potassium oleate particle (potassium–oleate is greater than 95%) have light yellow powders).
The addition of potassium hydroxide, to plant oil fatty acids and animal fats, creates potassium salts. To make this active ingredient, fatty acids are obtained from the palm, olive, castor, cottonseed and coconut oils.
What’s the actual effect of potassium oil
1. Through exothermic interaction, potassium oleate and natural soap constituents inactivate the influenza virus.
The influenza virus is a serious illness that can disrupt school and work life and cause major medical bills. Influenza is believed be responsible for a significant number of deaths. It is particularly dangerous to the elderly, children and those with chronic conditions. A pandemic is possible due to new strains or variations of influenza virus. Pandemic virus 2009 (H1N1) was still fresh in most people’s minds. People are becoming more concerned that an H5N1 subtype or avian flu epidemic could occur in the future.
Anti-flu medication can also be used to treat influenza virus infections. These precautions may not prove effective because of antigenic variations or resistance. For influenza virus infections to be prevented, it is important that you wash your hands frequently and wear a mask.
Despite the advancement of anti-influenza drug and vaccines for influenza, there is still an epidemic. For the prevention of infection by influenza, it is important to wash your hands regularly.
As the main ingredients in soap for hand washing, surfactants are used. In hand soaps, synthetic surfactants are such as sodium lauryl sulfate LES (LES), and sodium lauryl sulfate SDS (SDS). These ingredients are essential components of soap as they affect the performance of your hand soap. Soap can also be used for hand soap as it is made of fatty acids salts. It is well-known that surfactants are capable of dissolving the lipid bilayer of influenza virus particles. However, it remains to be determined how this happens.
There are three main ingredients in hand soaps that can be used to wash hands: sodium lauryl sulfate, potassium oleate, and sodium Laureth sulfate. Infectivity was decreased by four logs for a strain of human influenza virus (H3N2) by using C18.1, whereas SDS and LES reduced infectivity by one log. Similar results were also obtained using an H5N3 strain of the avian flu virus. Itothermal temperature calorimetry then examined the interactions between surfactant and virus. The LES-virus system displayed a positive value in enthalpy change (H) which indicates an exothermic interaction that is hydrophobic. Both the C18-virus and SDS-virus systems had negative values for H. These indicated endothermic interactions that were indicative of an electric interaction. C18-virus systems had a higher H than SDS. Similar negative H values were seen for mixtures of C18:1- and HA protein.
These data indicate that the inactivation of influenza virus via hydrophobic interaction with a surfactant is not sufficient to protect against infection. Inactivation using an electric interaction of surfactant to HA proteins, however, is enough to stop infection.
2. Fatty Acid potassium had Beneficial Bactericidal effects and removed Staphylococcus aureus biofilms. It also showed reduced cytotoxicity towards mouse fibroblasts.
Wounds can become infected and contaminated with bacteria. C18-K (a form of potassium fatty acids) caused >4 log reductions in Staphylococcus Aureus and Escherichiacoli numbers within 10 minutes and >2 log CFU/mL decreases in Clostridium difficile number within one minute. C18.1K (proportion taken: 90.3%) performed significantly better in eliminating Staphylococcus Aureus biofilms compared to synthetic surfactants detergents sodium lacryl ether (SLES), (74.8%) and sodium sulfate (SLS) (88.0%), respectively.
Mouse fibroblasts from BALB/3T3 were found to be significantly more viable in C18.1K than in SLES (31.1%), or SLS (18.1%) according to the WST assay (water-soluble Tetrazolium). p0.05 C18.1K, which had a relative leakage rate of 108.9% compared with SLES, was shown to have a lower LDH loss from mouse fibroblasts (720.6% and 523.4% respectively; p0.05). Potassium oil showed bactericidal activity against many species such as Staphylococcus aureus. Escherichiacoli. Bacillus cereus. Clostridium difficile. C18:1K (relative leakage vs. control: 108.9%) was found to be associated with significantly lower LDH leakage from mouse fibroblasts that SLES or SLS (702.6% and 523.4%, respectively; p 0.05). It also maintained fibroblasts.
In order to avoid infections and offer wound care, infection must be prevented and effectively removed. Natural soap is free from any additives, preservatives, synthetic materials or other chemicals. We also wanted to see if its key ingredients, such as the fatty acid potassium, could be used in such cases. So, we investigated MRSA removal, cytotoxicity, and the ability to kill different types of MRSA.
