- Infectious Disease Management and Control with Povidone Iodine
PVP-I has a broad antimicrobial spectrum and is active against a plethora of viruses and antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains (Table 1) Susceptible Gram-negative bacteria include Klebsiella pneumoniae, a common pathogen in hospitals, and susceptible Gram-positive bacteria include methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli
- Povidone Iodine Antiseptic: A Comprehensive Review
Antimicrobial Properties Povidone iodine is recognized for its wide-ranging antimicrobial properties Its primary component, iodine, exhibits effective action against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa The mechanism begins when povidone iodine is applied to the skin or a wound When it comes in contact with moist areas, iodine is released in a form that can penetrate microbial cell
- Povidone-Iodine - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Povidone-iodine is effective against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, fungi, and viruses 8 In contrast to chlorhexidine, povidone-iodine has a shorter protective effect against bacterial buildup on the skin after hand washing and seems to be less effective than these agents for that purpose 9
- Antiseptics in the era of bacterial resistance: a focus on povidone iodine
Povidone iodine has the broadest spectrum of antimicrobial activity of the available antiseptics, and has a rapid and persistent microbicidal effect It is active against Gram-positive and -nega-tive bacteria, bacterial spores, fungi, protozoa and several viruses, including H1N1 influenza virus (swine flu)
- Bactericidal and virucidal activity of ethanol and povidone‐iodine
The present study provides an overview of the bactericidal and virucidal activity of ethanol and povidone-iodine based on a systematic literature search Both ethanol and povidone-iodine have an inactivating effect on bacteria and viruses depending on the concentrations used The data may help to improve the microbicidal application of ethanol and povidone-iodine in practice
- Antimicrobial effectiveness of povidone-iodine and consequences for new . . .
The microbicidal action spectrum of povidone-iodine (PVP-I) is broad - even after short onset times Unlike local antibiotics and other antiseptic substances, no resistance develops The high degree of bactericidal efficiency in respect of highly resistant gram-positive pathogenic micro-organisms, s …
- In Vitro Bactericidal and Virucidal Efficacy of Povidone-Iodine Gargle . . .
Recent virus epidemics and rising antibiotic resistance highlight the importance of hygiene measures to prevent and control outbreaks We investigated the in vitro bactericidal and virucidal efficacy of povidone-iodine (PVP-I) 7% gargle mouthwash at
