General description

A nonionic liquid polymer of the alkyl aryl polyether alcohol type. Used as a surfactant.

Application

Tyloxapol is a nonionic liquid polymer of the alkyl aryl polyether alcohol type. It is used as a surfactant to aid liquefaction. Tyloxapol is used in the development of non-ionic surfactant-based liposomes (niosomes) for use in drug delivery systems. Tyloxapol may be used to study its mechanism of protecting macrophages from endotoxins. Tyloxapol may be used to study is potential cell toxicitiy.

Tyloxapol is reported to prevent macrophages from reacting to endotoxin. However, the intracellular responses that tyloxapol induces in macrophages are still not fully explored. Hence, the objective of this study was to evaluate the intracellular events in macrophages treated with

A new series of N-(benzoylphenyl) and N-(acetylphenyl)-1-benzofuran-2-carboxamides (3a-3d and 4a'-4c') were synthesized. Compounds (3a, 3b, and 4a'-4c') were tested in vivo using Triton-WR-1339-induced hyperlipidemic rats as an experimental model for their hypolipidemic activity. The tested animals were divided into eight

The toxicity of carcinogenic benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) can be intensified by the pro-oxidative effects of metabolic activation. The oxidatively active products can be formed during enzymatic biotransformation or in the process of co-oxygenation with lipid peroxidation. This study assesses if the

The hypolipidemic activity of Symplocos cochinchinensis S. Moore leaves was studied in Triton WR-1339- and high fat diet-induced hyperlipidemic rats. In Triton WR-1339-induced hyperlipidemic rats, the hexane extract (250 and 500 mg/kg) exerted a significant (P < 0.01) lipid-lowering effect
