Decontamination of Human Sclera

Cornea, 1999
The human sclera is frequently used in ophthalmic surgeries and must be preserved in disinfectants that prevent its contamination. In this study the efficiency of glycerin, absolute alcohol (ethanol), and benzalkonium chloride (1:5,000) as human sclera disinfectants were compared.Fresh human scleras were trephined, the scleral disks divided into three ...

Comparison of Decontamination Methods for Human Skin Grafts

Journal of Burn Care & Research, 2015
Skin grafts intended for autologous transplant may be dropped on the operating room floor during handling. The authors examined optimal procedures for decontaminating tissue intended for burn surgery. Porcine skin (5 × 5 cm sections) harvested from expired animals using standard procedures was inoculated with either 10(6) CFU/ml Staphylococcus aureus ...

In vitro model for decontamination of human skin: Formaldehyde

Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2007
Decontamination of a chemical from skin is often an emergency measure. This study utilized an in vitro model to compare the decontamination capacity of three model decontaminant solutions (tap water, isotonic saline, and hypertonic saline). Human cadaver skin was dosed (approximately 0.25 microg on 3 cm(2) per skin) with radio-labeled [(14)C ...

Decontamination of Human Skin Experimentally Soiled by Radioactive Materials

Archives of Environmental Health: An International Journal, 1960
An investigation was made of the efficiency of a series of cleansers both of the granular and waterless variety, plus a slurry and a special cream, in the decontamination of radioactivity on the skin, utilizing as laboratory soil the radioactive isotopes of I/sup 131/ and P/sup 32/. The test materials, in the quantities used, provided 0.05 mu c.

Skin decontamination of glyphosate from human skin in vitro

Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2008
This study compared three model decontaminant solutions (tap water, isotonic saline, and hypertonic saline) for their ability to remove a model herbicide (glyphosate) from an in vitro human skin model. Human cadaver skin was dosed (approximately 375microg) of [14C]-glyphosate on 3cm2 per skin.

Comparison of skin decontamination efficacy of commercial decontamination products following exposure to VX on human skin

Chemico-Biological Interactions, 2017
The decontamination efficacy of four commercially available skin decontamination products following exposure to the nerve agent VX was evaluated in vitro utilizing a diffusion cell and dermatomed human skin. The products included were Reactive Skin Decontamination Lotion (RSDL), the Swedish decontamination powder 104 (PS104), the absorbent Fuller's ...

In vitro human skin decontamination efficacy of MOF-808 in decontamination lotion following exposure to the nerve agent VX

Toxicology Letters, 2021
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown promising properties for removal of chemical warfare agents, in particular for material decontamination and functionalized fabrics. The MOF-properties could also be beneficial for skin decontamination, especially when exposed to highly toxic and low volatile nerve agents.

In vivo percutaneous absorption and decontamination of pesticides in humans

Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, 1985
Regulators today face complex problems in assessing the health hazards associated with the use of pesticides. Pesticide exposure occurs at manufacturing, application, work area, and consumption situations, and in the air, water, and soil of our daily lives.
