How it works
Pyodine (Povidone-Iodine) exerts its microbicidal effects in low concentration by inhibiting enzymes essential to microbial metabolism. Most pathogens are killed within 15-30 seconds in vitro. Resistance has not been reported. Microbicidal activity is retained in the presence of moderate quantity of pus, blood or mucosal secretions.
