Product Identifier Product name ash Chemical Name Not Applicable Synonyms Not Available Proper shipping name ETHYLENEDIAMINE Chemical formula Not Applicable Other means of P0226 identification 1.2. Relevant identified uses of the substance or mixture and uses advised against Cationic salt. One of the most beneficial features of of cationics particularly quaternary ammonium salts (QASs) is their cytotoxic effect at very low concentration to a broad spectrum of microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, parasites and enveloped viruses, while showing relatively low toxicity to eukaryotic cells. QASs generally act by disruption of the cytosolic membrane and outer lipid bilayer via replacement of bivalent ions and attachment to the membrane, followed by the incorporation of the hydrophobic side chain into the phospholipid bilayer and the creation of a mixed micelle with the phospholipids, resulting ultimately in cytosol leakage. Whereas bacterial membranes are composed predominantly of negatively charged phospholipids, eukaryotic membranes mostly contain zwitterionic lipids and cholesterol. Such a difference in composition is a good precondition for a selective effect against microbes, and therefore, QAS should exhibit selectivity to microorganisms over eukaryotic cells Indeed, selectivity is obvious even among microorganisms. Gram-positive (G+) bacteria are more sensitive than Gram-negative (G-). The increased resistance of G- is most likely a consequence of the presence of the outer membrane layer which grants the cells stronger physicochemical Relevant identified uses protection. Interestingly, the relationship between the alkyl side-chain length and antibacterial activity is nonlinear. Optimal bioactivity is exhibited by C12-C14 chains for G+, and C14-C16 chains for G- bacteria However, the lipophilicity of the side chains seems to be a crucial factor, although the precise mechanism of action and structure–activity relationship is not yet fully understood Amphoteric surfactants (amphiphiles) have dual functional groups (both acidic and basic groups) in the same molecule. They are polar substances that have a high solubility in water but a poor solubility in most organic solvents. They are electrically neutral (zwitterions) but carry positive and negative charges on different atoms in an aqueous solution. They exist mostly as zwitterions in a certain pH range but depending on the pH value, the substances can have anionic or cationic properties outside the zwitterionic range. In the presence of acids, they will accept the hydrogen ions but they will donate hydrogen ions to the solution in the presence of bases, which balances the pH. Such actions make buffer solutions which resist change to the pH. Amphoteric (amphiphilic) surfactants change their charge according to the pH of the solution; this affects properties such as foaming, wetting and detergency through a surface action that exerts both hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties.

Chemwatch: 9-678702 +44 (0) 1353 667258 Issue Date: 27/08/2019 [email protected] Print Date: 02/10/2021 www.c-c-l.com surfactants are used as detergents for purifying, cleansing and for their antimicrobial effects. Alkylbetaines and amino-oxides are typical amphoteric surfactants. Betaines are primarily used in personal care products like, e.g. hair shampoos, liquid soaps, and cleansing lotions. Other applications include all-purpose cleaning agents, hand dishwashing agents, and special textile detergents. In chemistry a betaine is any neutral chemical compound with a positively charged cationic functional group such as a quaternary ammonium or phosphonium cation (generally: onium ions) which bears no hydrogen atom and with a negatively charged functional group such as a carboxylate group which may not be adjacent to the cationic site. A betaine thus may be a specific type of zwitterion. In biological systems, many naturally occurring betaines serve as organic osmolytes, substances synthesized or taken up from the environment by cells for protection against osmotic stress, drought, high salinity or high temperature. Intracellular accumulation of betaines, non-perturbing to enzyme function, protein structure and membrane integrity, permits water retention in cells, thus protecting from the effects of dehydration. It is also a methyl donor of increasingly recognised significance in biology. Betaines may function to reduce the concentration of homocysteine, a homolog of the naturally occurring amino acid cysteine. High circulating levels of homocysteine may be harmful to blood vessels and thus contribute to the development of cardiovascular disease. This hypothesis is controversial as it has not yet been established whether homocysteine itself is harmful or is just an indicator of increased risk for cardiovascular disease Phosphonium betaines are intermediates in the Wittig reaction. The addition of betaine to polymerase chain reactions improves the amplification of DNA by reducing the formation of secondary structure in GC-rich regions. The addition of betaine has been reported to enhance the specificity of the polymerase chain reaction by eliminating the base pair composition dependence of DNA melting. Most betaines are characterized by a fully quaternised nitrogen. In alkyl betaines, one of the methyl groups in the ‘betaine’ structure (N,N,N-trimethylglycine) is replaced by a linear alkyl chain. A special type of betaines is the hydroxysulfobetaines in which the carboxylic group of alkyl betaine is replaced by sulfonate and a hydroxy-group is inserted in the hydrophilic part of the molecule. In alkylamido betaines, an amide group is inserted as a link between the hydrophobic alkyl chain and the hydrophilic moiety. The most commonly used alkylamido betaine is alkylamidopropyl betaine (e.g., cocoamidopropyl betaine), whereas alkylamidoethyl betaines are used in smaller amounts. Representative structures include RN+(CH3)2CH2COO- (alkyl betaine) and RC(=O)NH(CH3)2N+(CH3)CH3-COO- (alkylamidopropyl betaine) Betaines and closely related sultaines are "pseudo-amphoteric" surfactants as the nitrogen moiety always has a net positive charge and the molecules can never become anionic at high pHs Betaines/ sultaines typically contain 6-8% salt (as sodium chloride for example) as by-products of their synthesis. These salts act to enlarge the effective size of the surfactant micelles and thus viscosity increases Since betaines/ sultaines permanently have positively charged nitrogen, the negatively charged end of the anionic surfactant associates with it to form a large surfactant complex and the viscosity increases. These surfactants also have other benefits when used in shampoos; they improve foam and can increase hair conditioning due to their substantively to hair. It has also been reported (controversially) that they can actually decrease the irritation potential of anionics (once again due to the formation of a surfactant complex) Uses advised against Not Applicable 1.3.

Stress-alleviating agents, such as vitamins and osmoregulators, may improve semen quality, seminal and blood plasma constituents, antioxidants’ status, and the welfare of roosters exposed to chronic heat stress (CHS). It has been shown that betaine (Bet) may be a useful tool for improving the reproductive traits of roosters exposed to CHS, and may have comparable effects to vitamin C and/or E, thus improving the breeding strategy. Abstract: In this study, we investigated the influence of betaine (Bet, 1000 mg/kg), with or without vitamin C (VC, 200 mg/kg ascorbic acid) and/or vitamin E (VE, 150 mg/kg α-tocopherol acetate) on semen quality, seminal and blood plasma constituents, antioxidants’ status, DNA repair, and the welfare of chronic heat stress (CHS)-exposed roosters.

  • Homocystrol™ + TMG Cardiovascular Health
    PRODUCT DATA DOUGLAS LABORATORIES® 06/2012 1 Homocystrol™ + TMG Cardiovascular Health DESCRIPTION Homocystrol™ + TMG, provided by Douglas Laboratories, contains significant amounts of activated B vitamins, trimethylglycine (betaine) and choline needed for proper metabolism of homocysteine, and the support of metabolic synthetic processes requiring methyl donors. Revised Formulation Homocystrol™ + TMG now provides bioavailable forms of B vitamins. Methylcobalamin, methylfolate, pyridoxal-5-phosphate, and riboflavin-5-phosphate are the forms most readily used by the body and do not require conversion once consumed. FUNCTIONS Homocysteinemia, or elevated plasma homocysteine, is a major factor that can influence poor cardiovascular health. High plasma levels of homocysteine appear to have negative effects on the vasculature, impairing the functional abilities of endothelial and smooth muscle cells. Suboptimal intake of several B vitamins, renal failure, environment, diet, stress, and genetic defects in homocysteine metabolism can all contribute to abnormal homocysteine levels. Homocysteine is a sulfur containing amino acid that is created in the body from methionine, an essential amino acid derived solely from dietary intake. Methionine is metabolized into homocysteine via an intermediate, S- adenosylmethionine. Homocysteine can be metabolized to produce cysteine, a nonessential sulfur-containing amino acid, or it can be remethylated to methionine. Whether the body needs cysteine or methionine will dictate which path homocysteine metabolism will take. Production of cysteine from homocysteine requires two specific enzymes for which vitamin B-6 is an essential coenzyme. Without adequate vitamin B-6, homocysteine cannot be metabolized into cysteine. The body can also metabolize homocysteine by remethylating it to methionine. The primary route by which homocysteine is remethylated to methionine requires folate in the form of methyltetrahydrofolate as a methyl donor and vitamin B-12 (methylcobalamin) as a coenzyme.

  • Betaine Supplementation for Various Clinical Disorders
    Online - 2455-3891 Vol 10, Issue 10, 2017 Print - 0974-2441 Review Article BETAINE SUPPLEMENTATION FOR VARIOUS CLINICAL DISORDERS JAYALAKSHMI M, VANITHA V* Department of Biochemistry, School of Life Sciences, Vels University, Chennai - 600 117, Tamil Nadu, India. Email: [email protected] Received: 21 February 2017, Revised and Accepted: 24 March 2017 ABSTRACT Betaine is distributed widely in animals, plants, and microorganisms and rich dietary sources include seafood, especially marine invertebrates. Betaine is N-trimethylated amino acid called as glycine betaine. It is a by-product. Betaine aldehyde is produced when choline dehydrogenase acts on choline, then betaine aldehyde is oxidized to form betaine by aldehyde dehydrogenase. Metabolic derived betaines possess various functions in our body in which they act as methyl donor which helps in liver function, detoxication, and cellular functions. It plays an important role in fat metabolism. Recent research found that betaine can convert homocysteine to cysteine thus they prevent heart disease. Choline is oxidized to betaine in liver and kidney. Intracellular betaine serves as an osmolyte that regulates cell volume and tissue integrity. Betaine not only plays as an osmolyte but also play a major role in the protection of the liver and other tissues. Consequently, it has been proposed that betaine has significant nutrient for prevention of chronic disease. Betaine has been shown to protect internal organs, improve vascular risk factors, and enhance performance. Databases of betaine content in food are being developed for correlation with population health studies. This review focuses on the aspects of wide research field with emphasis on a recent data relevant to various human diseases.

Box 10 Discussion Folic Acid (as folic acid) in the amount of 2000 mcgs is five times the content of many non-prescription supplements on the market. A number of studies have found no benefit of methyltetrahydrofolate (MTHF) supplementation over regular folate for lowering plasma homocysteine.[1,2,3] Although lower doses of folic acid are usually efficacious, “many individuals with cardiovascular disease and kidney disease are refractory to these lower levels and require significantly higher levels of folic acid supplementation.”[4] Nearly all large intervention trials that combined folic acid with other vitamins used at least 2 mg of folic acid per day.[4] Larger doses of folate increase nitric oxide production by the endothelium.[5] Besides cardiovascular support, folic acid has important Methyl Support™ roles in detoxification, nervous system function, breast tissue health, and prenatal development. Trimethylglycine (as anhydrous betaine), found in several tissues in humans, acts as an alternative methyl donor in homocysteine metabolism. Betaine is synergistic with folic acid and also supports healthy fasting plasma homocysteine. Betaine may also be a preventive agent against the activation of NF-kappaB induced during inflammation and aging.[6] Vitamin B12 (as methylcobalamin) is another methyl donor.

  • Corticoadrenal Activity in Rat Regulates Betaine-Homocysteine S-Methyltransferase Expression with Opposite Effects in Liver and Kidney
    Corticoadrenal activity in rat regulates betaine-homocysteine S-methyltransferase expression with opposite effects in liver and kidney 1,2,3, 1 2 1 OSVALDO FRIDMAN *, ANALÍA VMORALES , LAURA EBORTONI , PAULA CTURK-NOCETO and ELIO APRIETO1 11Centro de Altos Estudios en Ciencias Humanas y de la Salud, Universidad Abierta Interamericana (UAI), 2Instituto de Oncología Ángel H Roffo, 3Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas, Buenos Aires, ArgentinaBuenos Aires, Argentina *Corresponding author (Email, [email protected]) Betaine-homocysteine S-methyltransferase (BHMT) is an enzyme that converts homocysteine (Hcy) to methionine using betaine as a methyl donor. Betaine also acts as osmolyte in kidney medulla, protecting cells from high extracellular osmolarity. Hepatic BHMT expression is regulated by salt intake. Hormones, particularly cortico- steroids, also regulate BHMT expression in rat liver. We investigated to know whether the corticoadrenal activity plays a role in kidney BHMT expression. BHMT activity in rat kidneys is several orders of magnitude lower than in rat livers and only restricted to the renal cortex. This study confirms that corticosteroids stimulate BHMT activity in the liver and, for the first time in an animal model, also up-regulate the BHMT gene expression. Besides, unlike the liver, corticosteroids in rat kidney down-regulate BHMT expression and activity. Given that the classical effect of adrenocortical activity on the kidney is associated with sodium and water re-absorption by the distal tubule leading to volume expansion, by promoting lesser use of betaine as a methyl donor, corticosteroids would preserve betaine for its other role as osmoprotectant against changes in the extracellular osmotic conditions.
