In Vivo Preoperative Skin Preparation Efficacy Study Within a Defined Product Coverage Area

This study evaluates reduction of resident flora produced by the test product within a defined prepped area of skin.

Three different sample sites within a defined prepped area of skin were collected to determine whether reductions in resident flora produced by the test product are consistent.

* Subjects who are willing to avoid showering and tub-bathing within 72 hours prior to Screening and Treatment Days, and
* Subjects who have Screening Day baseline counts of \> 3.00 log10 per cm2 in each of the 3 sample sites (center, mid-peripheral and peripheral) in the treatment area (back region).

* Swimming in chemically treated pools or bathing in hot tubs, spas, or whirlpools within 14 days prior to Screening Day and throughout the study,
* Use of tanning beds, hot waxes, or depilatories (in the applicable test areas) within 14 days prior to Screening Day and throughout the study
* Bathing and showering within 72 hours prior to Screening Day and throughout the study, or
