โฆ Synopsis
Many organic acids are known to possess some antiseptic and germicidal power, and attempts have been made at various times to correlate both the structure and the physical properties of some of these acids with their bactericidal action. Kuroda and others (1) have found that certain acids were effective antiseptics in dilute solutions if the pH was below 4.5, but were ineffective in the neutral range.
Daniel and Lyons (2) found that, in an homologous series of acids, there was some correlation between bactericidal power and oil-water distribution, solubility and adsorption on charcoal.
