[Comparative study of the in vitro- and vivo- antimicrobial activity of seven antiseptic solutions for use on surgeon's hands (author's transl)].
The antibacterial activity of 7 antiseptic solutions has been studied both "in vitro en in vivo". The results obtained in both case were necessary and complementary since some products (e. g. Solubacter) show an irregular activity either "in vitro or in vivo" but show specific actions which can explain those result. Others (e. g. Betadine scrub), very active in vitro react slowly in vivo. The 3 solutions that have been shown to be the most antibacterial in both cases are 90 degrees alcohol. Remanol and Hibiscrub. Their efficacy has been shown to be fast, regular and relatively long lasting.
