Advantages of chlorhexidine disinfectant compared with iodophor disinfectant

2020-10-10

The chlorhexidine disinfectant’s advantages compared with iodophor disinfectant are as follows.

The first one is that the antibacterial and bacteriostatic time of chlorhexidine is longer than that of iodophor;

The second one is that the ingredients of the two products are different. The antibacterial time of chlorhexidine du is as long as 12 hours, and iodophor has no antibacterial ingredients but simple skin disinfection; Chlorhexidine alcohol is more efficient, and its disinfection effect is better and more lasting than iodophor disinfectant. It can inhibit bacteria on skin surface for a long time.

The third one is,at present, there are few first-line companies with chlorhexidine products, for example, Dr. Xiao from Shandong Province. Products containing chlorhexidine are safer and more reliable, and have long-term antibacterial effect, which is suitable for all people. Iodine products have side effects and allergic symptoms to a small number of people.

At last,chlorhexidine alcohol contains alcohol and does not contain iodine. Iodophors contain iodine without alcohol and are suitable for disinfection of wounds and mucous membranes. The advantages of chlorhexidine alcohol are: 1. quick drying, 2. transparent and easy to puncture, and 3. long acting time. It is suggested that chlorhexidine alcohol should be matured with the product of Dr. Shandong Xiao, who has scientific research formula of Academy of Military Medical Sciences.
