    Glossary Antiseptics

    substances that inhibit microorganism growth on living tissues

    Antiseptics are substances that inhibit the growth of microorganisms on living tissues, such as skin, to prevent infection. They are commonly used in medical settings for cleaning wounds, surgical sites, and hands to reduce the risk of infection. Unlike antibiotics, which are ingested or injected to kill bacteria within the body, antiseptics are applied topically.
