Guaiacol is a phenolic natural product first isolated from Guaiac resin, as well as the oxidation of lignin. It is readily oxidized by the heme iron of peroxidases including the peroxidase of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes. Guaiacol is able to inhibit prostaglandin biosynthesis like a classic NSAID, but it does not induce gastric damage.

Trimethoprim is an antibacterial agent; a specific inhibitor of formylation; a dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor.
Trimethoprim is primarily used as an antibacterial agent. It has dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor activity with selectivity for the prokaryote enzyme. It is used to treat urinary tract infections, mild acute prostatitis, recurrent cystitis, asymptomatic bacteriuria during pregnancy and respiratory tract infections.
The combination of trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole interferes with the cellular metabolism of folic acid in the bacterial cell by blocking the biosynthesis of nucleotides. Trimethoprim binds to dihydrofolate reductase and inhibits the reduction of dihydrofolic acid (DHF) to tetrahydrofolic acid (THF). THF is an essential precursor in the thymidine synthesis pathway and interference with this pathway inhibits bacterial DNA synthesis.

Use of dextrans as long and hydrophilic spacer arms improves the performance of immobilized proteins acting on macromolecules. Dextrans are used in many applications as platelet aggregants, plasma volume extenders, osmotic pressure regulators, stabilizers, organ separation media, matrix components, copolymers, microcarriers, binding agents, viscosity modifiers, antithrombotics, lubricants and physical structure components. They may be used as long hydrophilic spacer arms to improve the performance (freedom of movement) of conjugated/bound proteins. Dextrans may be derivatized for use in biosensor systems.

Dextran is branched polysaccharide made up of linear α (1→6) linked glucose units and α (1→3) link initiated branches; it ranges in size from 10,000 to 150,000 Kd.Depending upon its molecular weight it has different uses in different fields.
