Abstract
This new type of antiseptic was found to possess high germicidal efficacy both in the presence and absence of blood serum towards the pathogenic microorganisms examined using F.D.A. methods. It was soluble in water, possessed a low surface tension and was apparently stable under adverse conditions. It proved superior to several market antiseptics.Keywords
