Supplier: Medchemexpress LLC HY13111950G
Dimethyldioctadecylammonium bromide is a synthetic cationic lipid frequently employed in gene delivery and vaccine development. It is also known as DODAB or DDAB, and its structure includes a positively charged ammonium head group and two long hydrophobic tails. These characteristics make it effective for forming liposomes and other lipid-based nanoparticles that can efficiently deliver genetic material into cells. Beyond biotechnology, DDAB finds applications in surfactants, emulsifiers, and fabric softeners. Due to its potential toxicity and irritation, caution is advised during handling.
