Boric acid is used primarily for its antiseptic and antifungal properties. Borsyre is eg. used in the treatment of wounds, skin infections, and fungal infections.

Essential insights

• Antiseptic effect: Borsyre acts as an antiseptic by inhibiting the growth of bacteria. It disrupts the cellular processes of bacteria, leading to their death.
• Antifungal effect: It also has antifungal properties, targeting fungal cells and disrupting their cell membranes, which inhibits their growth and replication.
• Desiccant action: Borsyre can act as a desiccant, drying out wounds and affected areas, which helps to prevent infection and promote healing.
• pH regulation: It helps maintain a slightly acidic environment that can be unfavorable for the growth of many pathogenic microorganisms.
