• Descrizione: Phenoxyethanol is a preservative that is used in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. It is a glycol ether with a phenolic hydroxyl group that has been shown to have antimicrobial activity against antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria.

It can be used as a disinfectant for wastewater treatment plants as well as in animal feedlots and animal housing facilities. Phenoxyethanol is also toxic to blood cells and can cause damage to cell nuclei when used at higher concentrations (>0.5%). The levels of phenoxyethanol in the environment are typically low (0.01 parts per billion).
