Description

  Recently quick-drying antiseptics including 0.5 w/v% chlorhexidine gluconate/gel-alcohol (0.5%CHG-GA) have been sold in Japan. In this study, hand antiseptic effects and side effects of rough skin were compared with 0.2 w/v% benzalkonium chloride/liquid-alcohol (0.2%BAC-LA) which is the standard product. 0.5%CHG-GA had similar antiseptic effect to 0.2%BAC-LA immediately after hand antisepsis. 0.5%CHG-GA was superior to 0.2%BAC-LA during the 3 hours after hand antisepsis. There was no difference in the side effects of rough skin. Therefore, 0.5%CHG-GA is useful compared with 0.2%BAC-LA for prolonged hand antisepsis effects.<br>
