|
10%,
15.4 and 18 %
|
Functions by diffusing into the
sweat gland and forming a colloidal "plug" which limits the flow of
sweat to the skin surface. The plug is gradually broken down and normal
sweating resumes.
|
15.
|
Clorox
|
Disinfectant
|
Sodium
Hypochlorite
|
6%
|
Hypochlorite, the active
ingredient of clorox attacks essential bacterial proteins by causing proteins
to lose their structure and form large aggregates. This inhibits the
bacterial growth and ultimately kills the bacteria.

Sodium
monofluorophosphate
|
0.15%
w/v fluoride ion)
|
Both compounds produce ionic
fluoride, which blocks glycolysis and exchanges with the hydroxyl group of
the hydroxyapatite crystal of enamel. As a result, oral bacteria produce
lesser amounts of acidic compounds to become more insoluble.

0.3%
|
Cetrimide-Destroys and damages
cell membrane by lowering tension of surface. It causes microbial protein
denaturation.
Chlorhexidine-Binds to cell wall
and destabilizes by osmosis causing it to rupturewhich causes fluid to leak
leading to lysis and death.

Dynacin
|
Antibiotic
|
Minocycline
Hydrochloride
|
50,
100 and 200 mg
|
Inhibits protein synthesis and
thus bacterial growth by binding to 30S and possibly 50S ribosomal subunits
of susceptible bacteria
|

Neosporin
|
Antibiotic
|
Bacitracin
zinc, neomycin sulfate, and polymyxin B sulfate
|
BZ:
400 units, NS: 3.5mg, PBS: 5000 units
|
Actively transported across the
bacterial cell membrane, binds to a specific receptor protein on the 30 S
subunit of bacterial ribosomes, and interferes with an initiation complex
between mRNA (messenger RNA) and the 30 S subunit, inhibiting protein
synthesis. DNA may be misread, thus producing nonfunctional proteins;
polyribosomes are split apart and are unable to synthesize protein
