The purpose of this study was to compare in antiseptic effect between povidone-iodine and chlorhexidine-ethanol for laparoscopic cholecystectomy on the port site. A total of 46 patients admitted to surgery at one university hospital in Seoul were included in the study. A study group was randomly assigned using a random number table. The antiseptic effect was evaluated and compared to povidone-iodine and chlorhexidine-ethanol by using a culture and identification of bacteria, measurement of the number of bacteria (CFU/ml) and incidence of surgical site infection. Our results show that povidone-iodine and chlorhexidine-ethanol have no statistically significant difference in the incidence rate of bacteria after 3 minutes of disinfection and before removal of the trocar and in the number of bacteria and the incidence of surgical site infection. Thus, in order to select an efficient and appropriate skin antiseptics, we suggest that it is necessary to consider not only the disinfectant effect but also cost and convenience. In this research, our results about effect and usage of skin antiseptics can be used as basic data and educational resource, and this is expected to improve comprehension of skin antiseptics.

The inconsistent methods of harvest, identification, and preparation of brown algae samples make it difficult to compare the results of certain measurements across different studies, such as total phenolic contents (TPC), total flavonoid contents (TFC), and total antioxidant capacities (TAC). Therefore, this study aims to systematically measure and compare TPC, TFC, and TAC in 10 types of standardized brown algae extracts provided by the Bio-Resource Information System of Korea. Among the ten brown algae extracts, Ishige foliacea exhibited the highest levels of TPC and TAC, followed by Sargassum nigrifolium. TAC was measured by the following four assays: ABTS, DPPH, superoxide radical scavenging activities, and ferric reducing antioxidant power. TAC was found to be positively correlated with TPC (p<0.05) but not TFC, indicating that Ishige foliacea and Sargassum nigrifolium have potential use as marine antioxidative food material.
