- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoConcentración mínima inhibitoria de desinfectantes hospitalarios frente a los microorganismos Staphylococcus aureus Y Enterococcus faecalis(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2022) Avilés Castillo, Debie Catalina; Sánchez Andrade, Ariana Samantha; Arteaga Sarmiento, Sandra Denisse; 010719524-0; 010534829-6Introduction: Microorganisms are dangerous for human health, mainly those causing nosocomial diseases at the hospital level, among which Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis stand out. Their high capacity for infection is often because the bacteria mentioned above present a specific resistance to antimicrobials and disinfectants of hospital use, which is why their desired total inhibition is not generated. Objectives: To evaluate the resistance of Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis microorganisms to different concentrations of disinfectants used in hospital environments such as sodium hypochlorite, glutaraldehyde, iodopovidone, quaternary ammonium and ethyl alcohol. Materials and Methods: The antimicrobial resistance of Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis strains were determined using the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) through the macro dilution method in broth. Results: Sodium hypochlorite, ethyl alcohol and quaternary ammonium disinfectants inhibited bacterial growth in absolutely all concentrations and replicates, while glutaraldehyde and iodopovidone disinfectants did not generate total inhibition.
