'''Benzethonium chloride''' is a synthetic [[quaternary ammonium]], [[surfactant]], [[antiseptic]], and anti-infective compound used as a topical antimicrobial agent in [[cosmetics]] and personal care products like anti-itch ointments and antibacterial moist towelettes and wipes. Benzothonium chloride is also used is the food industry as a disinfectant and preservative.  [http://householdproducts.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/household/brands?tbl=chem&id=634]. It has the appearance of an odorless white crystalline [[hygroscopic]] powder and has a melting point of 162-164 &deg;C. The compound is moderately soluble in water and is toxic orally because it may cause failure in [[neuromuscular]] transmission as a result of pathological disturbance at the [[myoneural junction]].[http://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/summary/summary.cgi?cid=8478]


It is available under trade names '''salanine''', '''BZT''', '''diapp''', '''quatrachlor''', '''polymine d''', '''phemithyn''', '''antiseptol''', '''disilyn''', '''phermerol''', and others. [http://ptcl.chem.ox.ac.uk/MSDS/BE/benzethonium_chloride.html]
