Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The present study evaluates the effects of bactericidal load reduction after surgical hand scrub antisepsis using the reference antiseptic product propan-ol-1 60% as control versus a surgical hand scrub antisepsis with addition of a solution of chlorhexidine digluconate and potassium sorbate in order to test if pass the standard european norm 12791.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The investigators conducted a crossover clinical trial to evaluate the antiseptic effectiveness of preoperative surgical scrubbing using propan-ol-1 60% by scrub using the reference antiseptic product propan-ol-1 60% as control versus a surgical hand scrub antisepsis with addition of a solution of chlorhexidine digluconate and potassium sorbate in order to test if pass the standard european norm 12791. Samples will be taken from the hands of each volunteer after a surgical hands antiseptic.
