Abstract Polyvinyl pyrrolidone prolongs the bactericidal effect of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) by 25–30 times. The antibacterial activity of immobilized NaOCl depends on the polymer concentration in the solution. Excess of polyvinyl pyrrolidone leads to blockade of active groups and reduces NaOCl activity.
