Use of Provodine to Protect HCW Hands (Aim II.1)

Subjects serve as self-controls. Subjects first perform hand-hygiene with alcohol-based hand rub then doff gloves contaminated with either S. marcescens or MS2 phage and the hands are cultured using a bag-broth method to determine whether the subjects self-contaminated while doffing. Subjects then clean their hands thoroughly, perform hand hygiene with Provodine, then repeat the doffing and culture process.
