Some aspects of the mode of action of chlorhexidine
Abstract
Chlorhexidine is rapidly adsorbed by bacterial cells and this adsorption is accompanied by other cytological changes which include changes in the permeability of the cells and in their optical properties. The amount of drug adsorption causing maximum leakage of cell constituents and changes in extinction was found to be equivalent for Escherichia coli and for Staphylococcus aureus. Higher doses of chlorhexidine causing a higher level of drug adsorption caused correspondingly less leakage and change in extinction although such higher doses were more rapidly bactericidal.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
