Antipsychotic | [Definition]
ChEBI: Chlorhexidine acetate is the acetate salt of chlorhexidine. It is a disinfectant used for bacterial control in hospital, agricultural and domestic environments. It has a role as an antibacterial agent, an antiinfective agent, an antifungal agent and an antifouling biocide. It contains a chlorhexidine. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Chlorhexidine is a cationic broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent belonging to the bis(biguanide) family. Its mechanism of action involves destabilization of the outer bacterial membrane. It is effective against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Chlorhexidine is used primarily as a topical antiseptic/disinfectant in wound healing, at catheterization sites, in various dental applications and in surgical scrubs. |
