چکیده

The interaction between povidone-iodine, phagocytic cells, and microorganisms was studied. Three preparations of povidone-iodine were investigated: commercially available povidone-iodine solution Betadine, pure high-molecular-weight povidone-iodine as used in Betadine, and a low-molecular-weight povidone-iodine. Low concentrations of povidone-iodine (approximately 0.005%) have considerable activity in vitro. The concentrations used clinically (0.1 to 20%) are toxic for granulocytes and monocytes. Leukocytes reduce the in vitro microbicidal activity of povidone-iodine. No differences of any importance were found between the three preparations of povidone-iodine.

Effect of surgical site skin preparation with povidone-iodine 7.5% and 10% with chlorhexidine and povidone-iodine 10% on microbial count

Background and Aim: Preparing the skin for surgery with antiseptics is a standard measure to reduce surgical site infection. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of skin preparation at the surgical site with povidone-iodine 7.5% and povidone-iodine 10% antiseptics with chlorhexidine and povidone-iodine 10% on the microbial count. Methods: This clinical trial study was performed on 80 patient...
