Screening of Concentration and Antimicrobial Effectiveness of Antimicrobial Preservative in Betastatin Besylate Nasal Spray
View through CrossRef
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the optimal concentration and antimicrobial effectiveness of antimicrobial preservative in betastatin besylate nasal spray. METHODS By using Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Candia albicans, and Aspergillus niger as test strains, the antimicrobial effectiveness of betastatin besylate nasal spray containing different concentrations of antimicrobial preservative (0.02%, 0.0125%, and 0.005% benzalkonium chloride, respectively) was determined by using bacteriostatic effect test (Chinese Pharmacopoeia, 2015 edition).RESULTS The antimicrobial effectiveness of betastatin besylate nasal spray containing 0.02% and 0.0125% benzalkonium chloride, respectively, complied with the regulations of Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2015 Edition) against five test strains. However, the antimicrobial effectiveness of betastatin besylate nasal spray containing 0.005% benzalkonium chloride against P. aeruginosa did not meet the requirements of Chinese Pharmacopoeia.CONCLUSION Benzalkonium chloride at a concentration of 0.125% can be used as an added antimicrobial preservative in betastatin besylate nasal spray.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the optimal concentration and antimicrobial effectiveness of antimicrobial preservative in betastatin besylate nasal spray.
METHODS By using Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Candia albicans, and Aspergillus niger as test strains, the antimicrobial effectiveness of betastatin besylate nasal spray containing different concentrations of antimicrobial preservative (0.
02%, 0.
0125%, and 0.
005% benzalkonium chloride, respectively) was determined by using bacteriostatic effect test (Chinese Pharmacopoeia, 2015 edition).
RESULTS The antimicrobial effectiveness of betastatin besylate nasal spray containing 0.
02% and 0.
0125% benzalkonium chloride, respectively, complied with the regulations of Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2015 Edition) against five test strains.
However, the antimicrobial effectiveness of betastatin besylate nasal spray containing 0.
005% benzalkonium chloride against P.
aeruginosa did not meet the requirements of Chinese Pharmacopoeia.
CONCLUSION Benzalkonium chloride at a concentration of 0.
125% can be used as an added antimicrobial preservative in betastatin besylate nasal spray.
