Özet
Purpose To evaluate the in vitro efficacy of cidofovir, ganciclovir, povidone-iodine, chlorhexidine, and cyclosporine A on adenovirus genotype 8. Methods Conjunctival samples were collected from patients with adenoviral conjunctivitis and cultured in A549 cells. Adenovirus diagnosis was confirmed by RT-PCR. For each drug, the 50% cytotoxic concentration (CC 50 ) was determined. Subsequently, the antiviral activity was tested at concentrations below CC 50, and the 50% inhibitor concentration (IC 50 ) of drugs was determined Results While the IC 50 of cidofovir against adenovirus genotype 8 was 3.07 +/- 0.8 mu M, ganciclovir, povidone-iodine, chlorhexidine, and cyclosporine A were not found to be effective against adenovirus genotype 8 at concentrations below the CC 50 value. Conclusions Cidofovir was found effective and the IC 50 value was within the ranges in the literature. Ganciclovir and cyclosporine A were found to be ineffective at doses below the cytotoxic dose, povidone-iodine and chlorhexidine was found to be highly cytotoxic.
