Antimicrobial Staphylococcus aureus, aspergilus niger and candida albicans, multipurpose solution, pseudomonas aeruginosa
Contact Lens is a lens placed on the cornea of the eye to improve vision. Multipurpose contact lens solution/MPS (Multipurpose solution) is a desinfectans solution of contact lenses that causes of microbial keratitis. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of antimicrobial MPS were sold in indonesia against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger and determine the contact time in order to achieve maximum antimicrobial effect by the Stand Alone criteria method with variation of contact time 1 hour, 3 hours, 6 hours, and 24 hours, based on International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 14 729 guidelines. The results showed that this study indicated all of the MPS have activity as antimicrobial after exposure for 24 hours. MPS B which contained Polyhexamethylene biguanid showed the greatest decrease in the concentration of the challenge organisms with contact time was 6 hours.
