Lauroyl arginate ethyl ester(Lauric Arginine Ethyl for labeling purposes under FDA approval ) is a derivative of lauric acid, L-arginine and ethanol. The main characteristics of the molecule are a wide range of antimicrobial properties derived from its surfactant chemical structure that additionally yields certain tensioactive properties.

Ethyl lauroyl arginate is a white hygroscopic solid , dispersible in water up to 247 g/kg with a melting point at 50ºC to 58ºC. Its partition coefficient between water and oil(soy, sunflower, olive) is higher than 10 which means that the molecule is mainly located in the water fraction, which is more susceptible to microbial contamination. This property gives Lauroyl arginate ethyl ester an advantage over other preservatives with different chemical structure intended for the same applications.

Lauroyl arginate ethyl ester is intended to be used as a preservative. The active ingredient of LAEPRO, is a cationic surfactant, which has a wide spectrum of activity against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria, yeasts and moulds. Specifically, Lauroyl arginate ethyl ester affects negatively charged compounds such as microbial proteins present in cellular membranes or enzyme systems. One consequence of the interaction between LAE and microorganisms is the denaturation of membrane proteins resulting in increased membrane permeability. This can result in the inhibition of growth or the death of the microorganism.
