Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) is an anionic surfactant naturally derived from coconut and/or palm kernel oil. It usually consists of a mixture of sodium alkyl sulfates, mainly the lauryl. It is a widely used and inexpensive chemical found in many mainstream personal hygiene products such as shampoos, toothpastes, soaps, detergents and body wash. SLS is a detergent and surfactant, which essentially means that it breaks surface tension and separates molecules in order to allow better interaction between the product and your hair. It is also widely used as a skin irritant when testing products used to heal skin conditions. It was found that SLS represented a potential candidate for the use as a topical microbicide to prevent the sexual transmission of HIV-1, herpes, human papillomavirus and possibly other sexually transmitted pathogens. The mechanism of action of SLS involves the solubilization of the viral envelope and/or the denaturation of envelope and/or capsid proteins.

Sodium lauryl sulfate, a model substance in testing skin irritability was examined with regard to its effects on DNA synthesis and fine structure of human thymocytes incubated in vitro. At 5 h, incorporation of 3H-thymidine into DNA was inhibited with a discernable effect at 3 X 10(-4) M in serum-free medium and at 6 X 10(-4) M in medium to containing 15% serum. Sodium lauryl sulfate suppressed the incorporation of 3H-thymidine into DNA at 1.2 X 10(-3) M. No clear alterations in cell morphology were observed at 3 X 10(-4) M, whereas signs of irreversible cell damage, including pyknotic nuclei, were seen at 6 X 10(-4) M and complete disruption of most cells occurred at 1.2 X 10(-3) M. The results show that sodium lauryl sulfate inhibits DNA synthesis in human thymocytes and that there is a partial discrepancy between this inhibition and the adverse effects on the structural organization of the cell. It is proposed that the irritant effect of sodium lauryl sulfate in vivo is due to the breaking up of lymphoid or other cells and a consequent release of material that gives rise to an inflammatory response.
