Abstract

Microbial contamination of abdominal cavity and wound before and after processing it with antiseptics was studied. Microorganisms were isolated from a surgical wound and identified for their morphological, tinctoria l, enzymatic and antigen properties with a bacteriological method. Efficiency of processing of a surgical wound with various antiseptics is estimated. Upon processing of a surgical wound with 0,5 % water-alcohol solution, 70 % solution of chlorhexidine digluconate with a 1—2 minute exposition the results were negative in 19 patients. The results of microbiological research were negative in 100 % cases.
