Abstract

This study was performed to examine the pseudomonas aeruginosa, antibacterial effect of a soft contact lens multi-purpose solution (MPS). Pseudomonas aeruginosa was incubated in the Muller Hinton Broth culture, and treated with 5 MPSs. TO investigate the antibacterial efficiency of MPSs, UV spectrometer was used for measuring optical density of pseudomonas aeruginosa. The antibacterial effect of 4 MPSs was significant except for one MPS. This result suggested that the antibacterial effect of MPSs is dependant on their components, pH. Therefore they had antibacterial effect of the pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa에 대한 soft contact lens 다목적 용액(multi purpose solution, MPS)의 항균효과의 검정을 탁도측정법에 의해 실시하였다. Muller Hinton Broth 액체배지에 pseudomonas aeruginosa를 배양한 후 5개사의 5종류의 MPS를 이용해 각각 시간별로 처리해 대조군과 비교하여 항균효과를 비교해 본 결과 한 제품을 제외하고는 거의 비슷한 효과를 나타내었다. 또한 동일한 조건하에서 MPS의 항균효과는 구성성분, pH에 따라 달라질 수 있으며 5개 회사제품 중 4개에서 pseudomonas aeruginosa에 대한 항균효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다.
