Abstract: Nosocomial infections are an important cause of morbidity and mortality all over the world. It has been shown that appropriate environmental hygienic and disinfection practices can be very helpful to hospital infection control. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the bactericidal activity of some disinfectants against antibiotic-susceptible and antibiotic-resistant hospital bacterial isolates. The susceptibility of 27 clinical isolates to disinfectants and antibiotics was determined by the Association of… Show more

“…The hypochlorite was superior to quaternary ammonium (13,19,22,25) , composed by quaternary ammonium (17) , detergent (13,24) , hydrogen peroxide (13) , povidone iodine (17) , 4% chlorhexidine (17) , phenolic (19) . It was equivalent to 2% quaternary ammonium (12) chlorhexidine (12) , formaldehyde (12) , ethanol (25) , NaOH (25) , peracetic acid (15) , hydrogen peroxide (16) , aldehydes (19) , and phenol in the presence of large amounts of organic matter (14) .…”
