Each technique was applied to both sides of 15 adult anesthetized dogs on premeasured, clipped areas of skin. Skin bacteria were quantified before, immediately after, and 1 hour after skin preparation. Predominant skin bacteria were isolated by swabbing the skin. The percentages of bacterial reduction immediately after and 1 hour after skin preparation, percentages of negative culture results, cultures with more than five colony‐forming units, and the frequency of skin reactions were calculated and analyzed statistically. Drape adhesion was assessed subjectively. The percentage reduction in skin bacteria was significant for both techniques and comparable to that reported in humans. The adhesive drape was significantly less effective in both the immediate and 1‐hour periods. Lift occurred in 66% of drape applications but was not associated with high bacterial counts. Acute contact dermatitis was more frequent after skin preparation with PI. There was no difference between the techniques in recovery of potential skin pathogens. The authors conclude that application of this antimicrobial adhesive drape after a 1‐minute alcohol scrub is not as effective in the reduction of skin bacteria in dogs as is PI preparation of the skin.}, number={6}, journal={VETERINARY SURGERY}, author={OSUNA, DJ and DEYOUNG, DJ and WALKER, RL}, year={1992}, pages={458–462} } @article{osuna_armstrong_duncan_breitschwerdt_1990, title={Acute renal failure after methylene blue infusion in a dog}, volume={26}, number={4}, journal={Journal of the American Animal Hospital Association}, author={Osuna, D.
