Research Summary

Quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) are a class of organic compounds that contain a positively charged nitrogen atom, typically forming four bonds with four alkyl or aryl groups. Also known as quats, these compounds are widely used for their antimicrobial properties. QACs exhibit strong biocidal activity against bacteria, viruses, and fungi, making them common ingredients in disinfectants, sanitizers, and cleaning products. The positively charged quaternary ammonium ion disrupts the cell membranes of microorganisms, leading to their inactivation. Due to their effectiveness, QACs are employed in various industries, including healthcare, food processing, and water treatment. However, it is essential to use QACs judiciously, as overuse may contribute to the development of microbial resistance.
