Benzethonium hydroxide solution is an aqueous solution of a quaternary ammonium compound that exhibits strong surfactant and antimicrobial properties. Its mode of action involves the disruption of microbial cell membranes. As a surfactant, it can interact with the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane, compromising its integrity. This disruption leads to increased membrane permeability, causing the leakage of intracellular components, ultimately resulting in cell death. The compound′s ability to bind and alter membrane permeability makes it particularly effective against a broad spectrum of bacteria, fungi, and enveloped viruses. This capability is further enhanced by its stability and solubility in aqueous solutions, facilitating its widespread use in formulations where potent antimicrobial action is desired.
