Broth Test (TSB)
An initial broth test with (AOT) S1 showed that growth of
the bacteria was inhibited in the broth containing S1, but
growth was sustained in the broth free of S1.
This broth test was then repeated at S1 levels of 1%,
0.5%, 0.25%, 0.12%, and 0.063% with B. subtilis, S.
aureus, E. coli, and P. aerugenosa. After incubation the
broths were plated onto TSA plates and again incubated.
No effect on E. coli and P. aerugenosa, but all the B.
subtilis was killed at every dilution, and only a very few
colonies were observed for S. aureus at the two lowest
dilution levels.

Membrane Poration Hypothesis
Oil soluble surfactants will preferentially partition into the membrane bilayer
to form reverse micelles, thereby forming de facto pores. A structural model of
a reverse AOT micelle depicts such a hypothetical structure. The reverse
micelle was produced by Abel et al.2 in an extensive modeling study.

Application to Fabrics
A series of commercially available fabrics were
obtained as substrates upon which to test
AgAOT and AOT.
The commercially available fabrics are cotton,
jute, linen, silk, polyester, acetate, rayon, and
nylon.
AgAOT or AOT solution was sprayed on a
rectangular area of fabric in a spray booth, dried,
weighed to check deposition, and then sterilized
in an autoclave. The swatches were then cut up
into smaller pieces for repeat testing.

aluminum sheet, ceramic tile, metal plate (light

Toxicology
In ophthalmological formulations,
concentrations greater than 0.1% may cause
conjunctival irritation; repeated use my delay
healing of corneal lesions.
22 February 2011
Toxicology
Toxic dose in humans is unknown.
S1 (AOT) used extensively in mineral oil laxative
formulations and as a stool softener.
Toxicity following acute ingestion of excessive
amounts of laxatives is generally minimal and
limited to the gastrointestinal tract.
Hypothesis: Beneficent Gram positive flora
killed on ingestion may lead to intestinal
distress.
22 February 2011
Toxicology
As a laxative and a stool softener -
In existing formulations/preparations, S1 is
supplied as 50, 60, and 100 mg capsules and
tablets, as 250 & 300 mg capsules, in solution
for oral administration at 10 and 50 mg/mL and
as syrup at 4 mg/mL.
22 February 2011
Toxicology
In animals large doses of S1 produce anorexia,
vomiting, and diarrhea.
Even in chronic feeding tests, fatally poisoned
animals show only diarrhea and intestinal
bloating, with no gross lesions outside of
gastrointestinal tract.
Docusate salts (S1) can occasionally cause
diarrhea.
Morphological damage to the intestines has
been observed in rats.
May be hepatotoxic (liver).

Summary
Family of anionic surfactants appear lethal to
Gram-positive bacteria and to some other
microbes.
MICs competitive with known antibiotic.
Preliminary fabric spray tests look promising.
Many new cleaning and prophylactic product
applications to consider.
Adding our surfactant technology to existing
cleansers produces a prophylactic long-acting
product.
Now is the time to capitalize on MRSA hysteria!

Summary
Imidazolium-based nanolatexes efficiently disperse
CNTs in water, particularly MWCNT (up to 17% w/w).
As is dispersions suitable for printing conductors.
Simple coating produces MWCNT membranes suitable
for electrodes and membranes for various
applications.
The use of nano-WC/nanolatexes for stabilizing
MWCNT should produce a practical fuel cell electrode
for the ORR.
New and effective heat transfer elements suitable for
flexible electronics should derive from the presently
illustrated examples.
