The Uses of Isothiazolinones
A isothiazolidin-3-one derivative as antimicrobial. It was tested for inhibition of PCAF activity. 5-Chloroisothiazolinones showed the most potent inhibition of PCAF.
The Uses of Isothiazolinones
Isocil(R) MW-14 is a high performance biocide for preserving metal working fluids, hydraulic fluids, polymer emulsions, pigment dispersions. Suggested applications: preservative concentrate. Very low level.
The Uses of Isothiazolinones

Background
Methylchloroisothiazolinone (MCI) is an isothiazolinone commonly used as a preservative with antibacterial and antifungal properties. It is found within many commercially available cosmetics, lotions, and makeup removers. It is also a known dermatological sensitizer and allergen; some of its side effects include flaky or scaly skin, breakouts, redness or itchiness, and moderate to severe swelling in the eye area. The American Contact Dermatitis Society named Methylchloroisothiazolinone the Contact Allergen of the Year for 2013.
Sensitivity to Methylchloroisothiazolinone may be identified with a clinical patch test.
Indications
Methylchloroisothiazolinone is approved for use within allergenic epicutaneous patch tests which are indicated for use as an aid in the diagnosis of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) in persons 6 years of age and older.
What are the applications of Application
5-Chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (CMI/MI > 2.0) is an isothiazolinone and preservative agent with antimicrobial and antifungal properties.
Definition
ChEBI: A 1,2-thiazole that is 4-isothiazolin-3-one bearing a methyl group on the nitrogen atom and a chlorine at C-5. It is a powerful biocide and preservative and is the major active ingredient in the commercial product KathonTM.
