ABSTRACT
AIMS:
We investigated the antibacterial efficacy of Umonium38 and Virkon® against Burkholderia pseudomallei, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) up to 14 days following treatment. METHODS ANDRESULTS:
Umonium38 was diluted to 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%, 2.5% and 3%, tested against the bacterial strains at various contact times (15 min to 24 h), and incubated for up to 14 days. A minimum concentration of 0.5% Umonium38 with a contact time of 15 min effectively killed approximately 108 CFU/ml of all four bacterial species. No growth was observed on agar plates from day 0 until day 14 for all six concentrations. The bacteria were also inactivated by a 30-minute treatment time using Virkon® 1% solution.CONCLUSIONS:
Umonium38 effectively inactivates B. pseudomallei, E. coli, P. aeruginosa and MRSA at a concentration of ≥ 0.5% with a contact time of at least 15 min. The antimicrobial effect of Umonium38 remained for 14 days.Palabras clave
