Abstract:
:Povidone-iodine (PVP-I) is used for infection control and preoperative sterilization of the oral and pharyngeal regions. Marketed preparations containing cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) are used to inhibit growth of oral bacteria. We conducted an in vitro study of the sterilizing effects of these microbicides on 10 oral bacterial strains and fungi related to pneumonia and periodontal disease, after dilution with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), saliva, and components in saliva. The CPC solution was evaluated at 50 mg/100 mL, which is the concentration used in products. CPC sterilized all strains within 1 minute. Prolongation of the sterilization time associated with dilution was more gradual in comparison to PVP-I solution. CPC sterilized 7 of 10 microbial strains within 3 minutes at 3 mg/100 mL. At 500 mg/100 mL, which is near the upper limit of the concentration that is actually used, PVP-I solution sterilized 7 microbial strains within 3 minutes. However, PVP-I had no sterilization effect when diluted to 100 mg/100 mL or lower. With addition of saliva, PVP-I sterilized 2 microbial strains within 3 minutes at 500 mg/100 mL, whereas CPC solution sterilized 9 microbial strains within 1 minute at 50 mg/100 mL. Our results show that in use influenced by dilution with saliva, CPC is likely to maintain a strong sterilization effect, whereas PVP-I may have a reduced effect.
