Hydrolysis of tetradecyl betainate (B14), a fast-acting microbicidal amphiphilic quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) being an ester of betaine and tetradecanol, occurred after binding to Salmonella typhimurium, resulting in release of the water-soluble betaine portion and retention of the lipophilic tetradecanol.

Solid lipid particles were evaluated for their potential as a thermo-activated drug delivery system. Submicron-sized diphenylhexatriene (DPH)/myristyl alcohol particles were produced by an atomization/drying process and the release rate of DPH into sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micellar solutions was measured.
