Chlorine

Halogen-Containing Compounds
- Used in the disinfection of water supplies
- MOA: formation of hypochlorous acid when dissolved in water

8
New cards

Iodine

Halogen-Containing Compounds
- One of the most effective and useful germicides
- MOA: iodination of phenylalanyl and tyrosyl residues in and oxidation of sulfhydryl groups in proteins

New cards

Povidone- Iodine

Halogen-Containing Compounds
- Complex of iodine with the nonionic surfactant PVP (aka iodophor)
- Extremely water soluble and releases iodine very slowly
- Nontoxic, nonvolatile, and nonstaining form of iodine that is not irritating to the skin or to wounds
- Used as an aqueous solution for presurgical disinfection of the incision site, to treat infected wounds and damage to the skin, and against local bacterial and fungal infections.
