Application


  • Molecular Simulations and Markov State Modeling of Quorum Sensing Regulators: Research revealed the inactive form of the quorum sensing regulator SdiA in Escherichia coli, offering insights into bacterial communication mechanisms that could be influenced by lipid-based signaling molecules such as 1-Octanoyl-rac-glycerol (Grabski et al., 2021).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Monocaprylin (1-octanoyl-rac-glycerol) is used as an antimicrobial monoglycerin with potential to treat bacteria D congolensis and campylobacter infections and to inactivate E. coli, Listeria and Salmonella on biosurfaces.
