The increase in resistance of pathogenic microflora to antibiotics over the world has become one of the challenges for biomedical science. Therefore, further development of antimicrobials and their use in various fields of medicine are extremely important. There are a wide range of antiseptic preparations in different fields of clinical medicine (octenisept, eludril, triclosan, myramistin, chlorhexidine, bigluconate-syn. hexinone, hibiscrab, hibitsan, eugel, fervex and others) in our country today. In 1985 the researchers of the Department of Skin and Sexually transmitted diseases, UMSA, created an antiseptic for treating venereal diseases. The name "Cidipol", proposed by the author, prof. V. G. Kravchenko, was approved by the Nomenclature Commission of the Pharmacological Committee, the Ministry of Public Health of the former USSR. The medicine as an invention was registered at the International Patent Centre (Geneva, Switzerland), and patents for the invention were obtained in Ukraine, the USA and the Russian Federation. In the United States, the drug has been reported as a preparation for individual prevention of sexually transmitted diseases and the treatment of urogenital trichomoniasis in women. Considering that antiseptics can produce an effect on the wide range of microbial flora, it is quite relevant to study the effect produced by Cidipol on certain types of bacteria and fungi. The purpose of the study was to investigate the fungicidal and bactericidal action of Cidipol on a number of gram-negative and gram-positive microorganisms. The study was carried out at the Department of Microbiology, Virology and Immunology, UMSA; we used museum strains of the following microorganisms: C.albicans ATCC10231, E.coli ATCC25922, S.aureus ATCC25923, E.faecalis ATCC29213, M.luteus ATCC4698, S.epudermidis ATCC14990. The antibacterial composition, prepared ex tempore according to the prescription "Cidipol", was used: 0.3% ciminal (p-nitro-alpha-chloride aldehyde), 5.0% dimexide, 94.7% polyethylene oxide. The investigated museum strains of C.albicans ATCC10231, S.aureus ATCC25923, E.coli ATCC25922, were found out to be sensitive to the effect of Cidipol; the fungicidal effect of the Cidipol composition exceeded its bactericidal effect in 4 times. The strains of E.faecalis, M.luteus, and S.epidermidis were the least sensitive. Conclusions. The results of the studies have demonstrated the presence of pronounced antimicrobial effect of Cidipol to museum microorganism strains with different levels of sensitivity.
