N-Lauroyl-L-lysine (CAS 52315-75-0)
QUICK LINKS
N-Lauroyl-L-lysine is a compound that functions as a surfactant and emulsifier in experimental applications. It acts by reducing the surface tension between two substances, allowing them to mix more easily. At the molecular level, N-Lauroyl-L-lysine interacts with the interfaces between different phases, such as oil and water, to facilitate the formation of stable emulsions. N-Lauroyl-L-Lysine′s mechanism of action involves its amphiphilic nature, which enables it to orient itself at the interface between immiscible substances, thereby stabilizing the resulting mixture.development, N-Lauroyl-L-lysine is utilized for its ability to improve the dispersion and stability of various formulations, making it a component in experimental systems requiring emulsification and surface tension reduction.
