Introduction: the question is if the use of tap water to cleanse skin wounds may increase microbial colonization. Objective: To investigate the influence of the use of tap water in the microbial colonization in cleansing skin wounds in rats. Methods: A sample of rats with skin wound in the back, 2.4cm in diameter. The wounds were cleansed daily with a sterile solution of sodium chloride 0.9% in 20 rats in the control group, Saline group, or with tap water in 20 rats in the study group, Water group. Sequential samples were taken for microbiological analysis. The Fischer and Mann-Whitney tests were used. Results: micro-organisms had grown in 49% of the samples in Saline group and in 47% of samples of the wate group (p = 0.39). The growth was ...
