FAQ
1.What is the difference between povidone iodine and traditional iodine tincture?
Povidone iodine: slow-release iodine, low irritation, longer duration of action;
Iodine tincture: strong irritation, may cause damage to skin and mucous membranes, and is easy to volatilize.
2. Will povidone iodine pollute the environment?
Povidone iodine can be decomposed in the environment, but high concentrations of iodine may have an impact on aquatic organisms, and waste liquid must be used and handled in accordance with regulations.
3. What is the concentration of povidone iodine?
The common concentration is 10% povidone iodine solution, and medical device disinfection or special purposes may require a lower concentration (such as 0.5%-1%). The specific concentration needs to be adjusted according to the purpose and target microorganisms.
4. Does povidone iodine need to be diluted?
It depends on the purpose. When used for medical device disinfection, it may need to be diluted to a lower concentration (such as 1%); when used for skin disinfection, a concentration of 10% usually does not need to be diluted.
5. Can povidone iodine be used with other disinfectants?
It is not recommended to use multiple disinfectants at the same time, as it may cause chemical reactions that reduce the effect or produce side effects. When switching between different disinfectants, clean them before use.
