Use[edit]
Phenoxyethanol is used as a perfume fixative; an insect repellent; an antiseptic; a solvent for cellulose acetate, dyes, inks, and resins; a preservative for pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and lubricants; an anesthetic in fish aquaculture; and in organic synthesis.Phenoxyethanol is an alternative to formaldehyde-releasing preservatives.[4] In Japan and the EU, its concentration in cosmetics is restricted to 1%.[5]Production[edit]
Phenoxyethanol is produced by the hydroxyethylation of phenol (Williamson synthesis), for example, in the presence of alkali-metal hydroxides or alkali-metal borohydrides.[1]Efficacy[edit]
Phenoxyethanol is effective against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, and the yeast Candida albicans.[6]Effective concentration and contact time to kill germs with aromatic alcohols[7] Aromatic alcohol Concentration, % Contact time, min Escherichia coli Pseudomonas aeruginosa Proteus mirabilis Staphylococcus aureus Benzyl alcohol 1 >30 >30 >30 >30 Phenethyl alcohol 1.25 2.5 2.5 2.5 >30 2.5 2.5 2.5 2.5 5 Phenoxyethanol 1.25 15 2.5 2.5 >30 2.5 2.5 2.5 2.5 >30 Safety[edit]
Phenoxyethanol is a vaccine preservative and potential allergen, which may result in a nodular reaction at the site of injection.[8] It reversibly inhibits NMDAR-mediated ion currents.[9] Ingestion may cause central nervous system (CNS) and respiratory depression, vomiting and diarrhea in infants, particularly when combined with chlorphenesin.[10]References[edit]
