Anti‐biofilm activity of sub‐inhibitory povidone‐iodine concentrations against Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus

It is reported that the antibacterial agent povidone‐iodine (PI) also has anti‐biofilm activity against Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphyllococcus aureus at sub‐inhibitory concentrations and suggests that studies to evaluate suitability of PI as biomaterial coating agent to reduce device‐related infections are merited.
