Sterilization of Surgical Tools: Removing Bacterial Endospores with a Combination of Povidone-iodine, Chlorhexidine Gluconate, Ethanol, and Methanol

A combination of chemicals including povidone-iodine, chlorhexidine gluconate, ethanol, and methanol were used to remove Bacillus thuringiensis endospores from surgical tools. This study included two steps: the first one was conducted using four increasing concentrations of each compound. The best c...
