In vitro study of antibacterial and antifungal activity of some common antiseptics and disinfectants agents
This current study included the antifungal and antibacterial effects of antiseptics or disinfectants agents (4% formalin, 10% Dettol®, 0.5% NaClO, 70% Ethanol alcohol, 1% Iodine and 10% Potassium permanganate) against Aspergillus flvus (Model of Mold) ,Candida albicans (Model of yeast) , E.coli (Mod...

| Summary: | This current study included the antifungal and antibacterial effects of antiseptics or disinfectants agents (4% formalin, 10% Dettol®, 0.5% NaClO, 70% Ethanol alcohol, 1% Iodine and 10% Potassium permanganate) against Aspergillus flvus (Model of Mold) ,Candida albicans (Model of yeast) , E.coli (Model of G- Bacteria) and Bacillus thuringiensis (Model of G+ Bacteria) , where several laboratory tests were used to evaluated the antimicrobial activity of antiseptics and disinfectants agents that used in the this study include Minimum inhibitory concentration test, Sensitive test, Zone growth diameter test and Inhibition zone test . The results showed that formalin was his effectiveness on all microbes used, while the Dettol® has been more effective than formalin in their effect on fungus and less effective on . The remainder of disinfectants and Antiseptics (Iodine, Sodium Hypochlorite, Ethanol alcohol, Potassium Permanganate) were least effective in comparison with Formalin and Dettol® on microbes used . |
