Molecular Simulations and Markov State Modeling of Quorum Sensing Regulators: Research revealed the inactive form of the quorum sensing regulator SdiA in Escherichia coli, offering insights into bacterial communication mechanisms that could be influenced by lipid-based signaling molecules such as 1-Octanoyl-rac-glycerol (Grabski et al., 2021).
Biochem/physiol Actions
Monocaprylin (1-octanoyl-rac-glycerol) is used as an antimicrobial monoglycerin with potential to treat bacteria D congolensis and campylobacter infections and to inactivate E. coli, Listeria and Salmonella on biosurfaces.
Carvedilol (CRV) is a non-selective blocker of α and β adrenergic receptors, which has been extensively used for the treatment of hypertension and congestive heart failure. Owing to its poor biopharmaceutical properties, CRV has been incorporated into different types of

Alfalfa and other seed sprouts have been implicated in several Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella spp. human illness outbreaks in the U.S. Continuing food safety issues with alfalfa seeds necessitate the need for discovery and use of novel and effective

The antilisterial activity of monocaprylin (MC) and its combination with acetic acid (AA) on frankfurters was investigated. Each frankfurter was surface inoculated with a three-strain mixture of Listeria monocytogenes to obtain an inoculation level of 4.0 log CFU per frankfurter

Development of self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (SNEDDS) of polypeptide-k (PPK) is reported with the aim to achieve its oral delivery. Box-Behnken design (BBD) was adopted to develop and optimize the composition of SNEDDS. Oleoyl polyoxyl-6 glycerides (A), Tween 80 (B)
To improve the dissolution and oral bioavailability of valsartan (VST), we previously formulated a supersaturable self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SuSMED) composed of Capmul® MCM (oil), Tween® 80 (surfactant), Transcutol® P (cosurfactant), and Poloxamer 407 (precipitation inhibitor) but encountered a stability
