title: [The effect of blood on the activity of some antiseptics].
abstract: The effect of blood on the activity of 7.5% povidine-iodine, 4% chlorhexidine gluconate, 10% benzalconium chloride, 1.5% chlorhexidine gluconate with cetrimide mixture, dust detergent and soap has been investigated. Two experimental methods have been applied. Using the first experimental method, the activity of antiseptics with an absence and presence of 25% blood in vitro has been investigated. It has been observed that povidone-iodine no germicidal activity at all whereas the activities of the other antiseptics decreased in varying raties. In the second experiment, the effect of blood has been investigated while the activity of antiseptics continued on the residuent flora of the hands. The changes brought about by blood was not found to statistically significant.
