Introduction: Pathogenic bacteria in the oral cavity or a physiological microbiome imbalance can cause or maintain disease. Thus, this work examined a novel betadine-saline combination for antibacterial and antifungal activities.
Materials And Methods: This study was . Betadine, saline, and their mixtures were tested for , (gram-positive), , , and (gram-negative). Pour plate and disc diffusion methods were used to test CFUs, DZI, and RZI for various agent combinations.
Results: For , Betadine 90% + saline 10% had the greatest DZI and RZI at 24 and 12 mm, respectively. For , Betadine 50% + saline 50% had the highest at 16 and 8 mm. Betadine 60% + saline 40% had 14 mm RZI and the highest antifungal activity.
Conclusion: The novel betadine-saline antibacterial and antifungal combination performed well. research should confirm the existing findings.

: Chemical debridement is a fundamental step during the surgical treatment of both acute and chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). However, there is no consensus on the optimal solution, nor is there sufficient evidence on the optimal irrigation time and combination of solutions. In an in vitro study, our group recently demonstrated that sequential combination debridement (SCD) with 3% acetic acid (AA) followed by 10% povidone iodine (PI) and 5 mM hydrogen peroxide (HO) was the best strategy for reducing bacterial load.

The management of persistent malignant pleural effusion (MPE) or uremic pleural effusions requires the removal of pleural fluid and the prevention of recurrence through pleurodesis. Pleurodesis involves injecting a sclerosing agent into the pleura to encourage adhesion between the two layers, ultimately obliterating the pleural space. Povidone-iodine is a potential pleurodesing agent.

The growing antibiotic resistance of microorganisms causing postoperative infections following orthopedic surgeries underscores the urgent need for localized antiseptic and lavage delivery systems to enhance infection control. This study evaluates the in vitro effectiveness of antiseptic and lavage solutions-including polyhexanide, povidone-iodine, low-concentrated hypochlorite, Ringer's solution, and saline-against , MRSA, , , , and . Using microplate models (Minimum Inhibitory Concentration, Minimum Biofilm Eradication Concentration, and Biofilm-Oriented Antiseptic Test assays), flow-based models (Bioflux system), and surfaces relevant to orthopedic implants (e.

Background: Children with perforated appendicitis frequently form post-operative intra-abdominal abscesses (IAA). Intra-peritoneal irrigation for prevention remains controversial. Using a perforated appendicitis murine model, we sought to determine the effect of intra-peritoneal irrigation on post-operative IAA and adhesion formation.

Introduction: Evaluating the antiviral potential of commercially available mouthrinses on SARS-CoV-2 holds potential for reducing transmission, particularly as novel variants emerge. Because SARS-CoV-2 is transmitted primarily through salivary and respiratory secretions and aerosols, strategies to reduce salivary viral burden in an antigen-agnostic manner are attractive for mitigating spread in dental, otolaryngology, and orofacial surgery clinics where patients may need to unmask.
Methods: Patients ( = 128) with confirmed COVID-19-positive status within 10 days of symptom onset or positive test result were enrolled in a double-blind randomized controlled trial of Food and Drug Administration-approved mouthrinses containing active ingredients ethanol, hydrogen peroxide, povidone iodine, chlorhexidine gluconate, cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), or saline.
