Disinfectants prepared in a hospital pharmacy: assessment of their microbiological purity and antimicrobial effectivenes
The microbial contamination and antimicrobial effectiveness of seven topical disinfectants prepared at the hospital pharmacy were studied. These products were controlled throughout storage and use. The manufacturing routine investigated was able to deliver larger batch sizes and quality products that allowed increased storage time. The formulations chosen by the pharmacists were effective against bacteria for their intended uses. For chloramine only, loss of effectiveness required reduced storage time. No significant modification in the microbial quality of these products was observed during use in our hospital.Journal ArticleSCOPUS: ar.jFLWNAinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
