Abstract

The majority of hospital-related infections worldwide are related to skin contact. In this study, the antiseptic potential of liquid soap from the methanolic extract of Sepioteuthis lessoniana ink against Staphylococcus aureus was determined. A non-randomized, controlled trial was done with positive control of Safeguard Liquid Hand Soap. The different concentrations (0.5% v/v, 1% v/v, and 5% v/v) of Sepioteuthis lessoniana ink extract soap were tested for their inhibitory activity. The Durham Tube Test was utilized to determine the antiseptic effect of the various concentrations, the minimum time for antiseptic effect to occur, and the corresponding efficacy of the commercial disinfecting agent. The study showed that all three experimental groups and the positive group inhibited the growth of the bacteria in as short as 5 minutes from contact with the bacteria. Safeguard Liquid Hand Soap which contains the active ingredient 0.5% chloroxylenol and the lowest formulation of 0.5% v/v concentration of Sepioteuthis lessoniana ink extract liquid soap exhibited similar results during the experiment. Therefore, formulated soap from the ink extract of Sepioteuthis lessoniana demonstrated antiseptic properties that are comparable to that of Safeguard Liquid Hand Soap.
