OEL Fastrac Catalog

Please note, this OEL/ADE monograph also applies to borax (CAS RN 1303-96-4). Boric acid is typically utilized in industrial processing and manufacturing but is also used as an additive in pharmaceutical products, cosmetics, lotions, soaps, mouthwash, toothpaste, astringents, and eyewashes. It is also used as a pesticide against ants and cockroaches and as a preservative for urine samples. It is known to exhibit some antibacterial activity against infections such as bacterial vaginosis and candidiasis. Information regarding the mechanism of action of boric acid in mediating its antibacterial or antifungal actions is limited. Boric acid inhibits biofilm formation and hyphal transformation of Candida albicans, which are critical virulence factors. Additionally, arrest of fungal growth was observed with the treatment of boric acid.

Affygility Solutions has an occupational exposure limit (OEL) and control band assignment for this active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). This monograph also contains the acceptable daily exposure (ADE) value.
