Abstract:
Heavy bacterial colonization results in exit-site infection. Antiseptic and non antiseptic agents have both been used for exit-site cleansing. An ideal cleansing agent should not only reduce the number of microorganisms, but should also be harmless to the body's defenses and should not interfere with wound healing. In vitro studies using animal cells have demonstrated that some antiseptic agents have adverse effects on wound healing. Strong cytotoxic antiseptics should be discouraged in exit-site cleansing. In choosing an appropriate cleansing agent for exit-site care, the phase of wound heali

Blood cultures (BCs) are the standard method for diagnosis of bloodstream infections (BSIs). However, the average BC contamination rate (CR) in U.S. hospitals is 2.9%, potentially resulting in unnecessary antibiotic use and excessive therapy costs.

AbstractCutaneous antisepsis with chlorhexidine or povidone-iodine, usually with alcohol, has been extensively studied.

As such, sequential use of cutaneous antiseptic agents may further reduce risk of surgical site infections, as well as infections associated with insertion o

Abstract:
Chlorhexidine (CHX), a cationic antiseptic, is an antimicrobial agent with many applications. In this work, the antimicrobial action of CHX associated with hydroxyapatite (HA) was evaluated for treating oral infections. Based on the determination of MIC (6,25 mg/mL HACHX), the material showed growth inhibition of E. faecalis for up to 08 days.

Abstract:
Povidone – Iodine has been known to have strong bactericidal and virucidal properties for a long time. It has been in clinical use as an antiseptic agent for over fifty years. Now a new indication for this old drug is recommended as Hookah therapy. It is hypothesized that in this form it will be an effective therapeutic agent to kill the coronavirus (SARS-COV2) or significantly inhibit its multiplication to achieve a cure. Details of treatment and dosage form are presented.

Objective: Due to classification of the agent polihexanide (PHMB) in category 2 ‘may cause cancer’ by the Committee for Risk Assessment of the European Chemicals Agency in 2011, the users of wound antiseptics may be highly confused. In 2017, this statement was updated, defining PHMB up to 0.1% as a preservative safe in all cosmetic products. In the interest of patient safety, a scientific clarification of the potential carcinogenicity of PHMB is necessary. Methods: A multidisciplinary team (MDT) of microbiologists, surgeons, dermatologists and biochemists conducted a benefit-risk assessment to

Abstract:
Chlorhexidine, 1,1'-hexamethylene-bis-[5-(p-chlorophenyl)-biguanide] is a clinically used antiseptic agent with a broad activity spectrum, effective against either Gram positive bacteria such as Mutans streptococcus or Gram negative bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It has eliminating effects on some mycobacteria. In order to prevent the loss of the biological activity caused by poor solubility of chlorhexidine and to limit the side effects of chlorhexidine when used as antiseptic, we synthesised Zn(II)- and Cu(II)- complexes of chlorhexidine, L1, as well as with chlorhexidine diacetate

Abstract:
Today's infection control practitioners (ICPs) bear a problem other than the one that faced Ignaz Semmelweis: not only do they attempt to get hospital personnel to wash their hands, they are bombarded by the choices of which soap to use. What type of soap is best? Towelette? Powder? Bar? Foam? Waterless? Lotion? Liquid? Should the agent be scented or unscented, medicated or nonmedicated, antimicrobial or antiseptic? Is a residual bacteriostatic effect more desirable than a fast-acting bactericidal effect? Can a ten-second cleansing yield a better handwash than a ten-minute scrub?

Pressed (modified) wood is a technological process of drying, impregnation and pressing (R 54577-2011 State Standard). The density of pressed wood, depending on the degree of pressing, ranges from 750 to 850 kg/m3. Strength, hardness toughness of this wood is several times greater than of natural wood. Coal oil, TCL (thermocatalytic cracking liquid), shale oil are most often used as wood antiseptics. They are plasticizers and change the nature of deformations during pressing.Experiments with natural and were conducted to obtain comparative data. Pressed wood contained 10% of TCL oily antisepti

ABSTRACT Objectives To explore whether the commercial agents recommended for controlling dental biofilm formation had a significant effect in vivo on mechanical and corrosion properties of nickel-titanium (NiTi) alloy. Materials and Methods NiTi archwires (dimensions 0.508 × 0.508 mm) were collected from 36 orthodontic patients aged 13–42 years after a 3-month intraoral exposure. Three experimental groups were formed: (1) subjects conducting regular oral hygiene, (2) subjects who used fluorides for intensive prophylaxis for the first month, and (3) subjects who used chlorhexidine in the same m

The gentian's spectrophotometric behavior has been studied in a wide range of pH interval, within B-R buffer solution. The analytical behavior has been observed in several values of pH and they shown linearity as a function of the concentration. The dye's molar absorption coefficient has shown pH-dependence. The detection limit is about 3.0x10-6mol L-1 and has been applied in samples of pharmaceutical formulations in which is found agree

Decolonization is an evidence-based intervention that can be used to prevent health care-associated infections (HAIs). This review evaluates agents used for nasal topical decolonization, topical (e.g., skin) decolonization, oral decolonization, and selective digestive or oropharyngeal decontamination.
