Chlorhexidine-d8 dihydrochloride
Catalog No. A31265

Chlorhexidine-d8 dihydrochloride is a deuterated form of the cationic antimicrobial agent chlorhexidine, which specifically targets microbial cell membranes. It exhibits broad-spectrum bactericidal activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria by binding non-specifically to cell membrane phospholipids, disrupting membrane integrity, and causing the leakage of cellular contents. This compound is valuable for research applications exploring antimicrobial mechanisms, membrane permeability, and the effects of antimicrobial agents on microbial physiology and cell death pathways.
