DIDECYLDIMONIUM (as a salt, didecyldimethylammonium chloride (DDAC)) is used in many types of biocidal products including tableware, carpets, humidifiers, and swimming pools. It shows a broad spectrum of activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and is also effective on fungi and viruses, including those that are enveloped.
