Therefore dilution needed prevent this effect. This study was intended determine difference comparison effectiveness Povidone iodine growth an experimental a randomized controlled trial without blinding. The research procedure made right left sides rat's back size 1x1 cm each. Wounds that have been contaminated Baumannii for 4 hours.
