Cocamidopropyl Betaine

Dermatitis, 2008
Cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB) is an amphoteric synthetic detergent that has been increasingly used in cosmetics and personal hygiene products (eg, shampoos, contact lens solutions, toothpaste detergents, makeup removers, bath gels, skin care products, cleansers, liquid soaps, antiseptics, and gynecologic and anal hygiene products) because it induces ...

Betaine squarate, a new ferroelastic betaine compound

Solid State Communications, 1996
Abstract A new betaine compound, (CH 3 ) 3 NCH 2 COO·C 4 O 4 H 2 , has been synthesized. The substance crystallizes at ambient temperature with space group Pc 2 1 b . Accordingly, it is pyro- and piezoelectric. Elastic, optic, and dielectric investigations have shown that betaine squarate under-goes a continuous ferroelastic transition at T c ≈

Glycine betaine and proline betaine in human blood and urine

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1994
In healthy human subjects, glycine betaine concentrations in the blood plasma are normally between 20 and 60 mumol/l, adult males tending to have higher concentrations than females. Proline betaine concentrations are more variable, ranging from undetectable to about 50 mumol/l. Both betaines are present in urine.

Regulation of Hepatic Betaine-Homocysteine Methyltransferase by Dietary Betaine

The Journal of Nutrition, 1983
The level of betaine-homocysteine methyltransferase increases in the livers of rats fed diets supplemented with betaine or choline. The increase occurs within 3 days following the change in diet. When we administered betaine by intraperitoneal injection to rats fed choline-free diets, we observed a similar increase within 24 hours.

The betaine profile of cereal flours unveils new and uncommon betaines

Food Chemistry, 2018
We report the LC-ESI-MS/MS determination of betaines in commercial flours of cereals and pseudocereals most utilized in human nutrition. Results showed that glycine betaine, trigonelline, proline betaine, Nε-trimethyllysine were metabolites common to all examined flours, whereas an uncommon betaine, valine betaine, and glutamine betaine were present ...

Anticonvulsant Properties of Betaine

Epilepsia, 1979
Summary: It has been shown previously that convulsions induced by homocysteine are blocked by betaine. In the present study, betaine was found to block the induction of convulsions by electroconvulsive shock and by pentylenetetrazol at least as effectively as it blocked convulsions induced by homocysteine.

Cocamidopropyl betaine allergy

American Journal of Contact Dermatitis, 2001
Cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB) is a surfactant, and reports of allergic contact dermatitis to this chemical have been reported in the literature. Although most commonly found in rinse-off products, the chemical nonetheless has been shown to induce allergy.
