Susceptibility of Chlamydia trachomatis to the excipient hydroxyethyl cellulose: pH and concentration dependence of antimicrobial activity.

Ali A Abdul Sater1, David M Ojcius, Matthew P Meyer.   

Abstract

Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) is used as a neutral excipient in microbicides used against sexually transmitted pathogens. However, HEC inhibits the infection of cervical epithelial cells by Chlamydia trachomatis at pH 5 in a concentration-dependent manner. At pH 7, infection is inversely dependent on the concentration of HEC, possibly due to pH-dependent calcium sequestration.
