Asepsis secundum artem : the practical application of the art of asepsis to the preparation of surgical dressings . which acts as a mordant-like agent(fixative); the mercuric chloride is decomposed in the reaction. The dressing is finally packed in sterilized containers, steamsterilized in our vacuum sterilizing chamber during which the jaris hermetically sealed. The entire process is conducted according to the rules of themost precise technical cleanliness. The formula insures an iodo-form dressing of the greatest absorbency and having the highestantiseptic properties. By the use of iodoform in a complete solution, not in an emulsion or mixture, it is held in more than a meremechanical association with the meshes of the gauze, but is carriedwithin the cellulose structure of the gauze fibre. The iodoform istherefore not washed away from the fibre by wound secretions. The gauze is perfectly non-poisonous, non-irritating, does notdecompose in septic wounds. The dressing does not require as fre-quent change as do other iodoform applications. The dressing isready for use without further preparation, 20.
