The Effect of Different Irrigation Solutions on the Cytotoxicity and Recovery Potential of Human Osteoblast Cells In Vitro.

Background: Surgeons use various irrigation solutions to minimize the risk of prosthetic joint infection after total joint arthroplasty. The toxicity of these solutions is an important consideration in their use. This study investigates the effect of irrigation solutions Bacitracin, Clorpactin (sodium oxychlorosene), and Irrisept (chlorhexidine) on osteoblast cytotoxicity and proliferation.
