Overview
Phenylmercuric acetate is an organomercury compound. This compound was formerly used as a preservative in paints, and as a disinfectant.
Applications
PHENYLMERCURIC acetate (PMA) has been widely used as a fungicide and as a disinfectant. It is well known that the antibacterial action of mercuric compounds results chiefly from their interference with essential sulphydryl groups of organisms.
Dosage and directions
This chemical is used as a fungicide, herbicide and algicide. It is found in antibiotic eye drops, eye cosmetics, shampoos and paints.
Characteristics and notes
as an herbicide and fungicide. as such, is mixed with organic solvent for the purpose of application. Phenylmercury acetate is an arylmercury compound and a member of benzenes.
