Povidone Iodine (PVP-I) is a stable complex of iodine with povidone, a water-soluble polymer. It slowly releases free iodine, which acts as a broad-spectrum antiseptic effective against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa.
Povidone Iodine releases iodine molecules that penetrate microbial cell walls and disrupt essential proteins and nucleic acids, resulting in rapid cell death and sterilization of the area.
