The decontaminant is Beta-din- e antiseptic, prepared from a chemical complex of made by GAF Corporation for The Purdue Frederick Company tion garments, which they will don, and the Betadine antisep- and affiliates. Betadine, one of the most potent antiseptic known to science and medicine and widely used as a surgical antiseptic, was selected by NASA for the initial decontamination of the capsule and its astronauts. It provides rapid, germicidal action against micro organisms causing infections in man, lower animals and plants. Frogmen will leap into the Pacific to secure the return capsule. When the spacecraft hatch is opened, the frogmen will give the astronauts biological isola broad-spectru- tic. The same antiseptic that has been used as a spray for skin irritations and wounds and in skin diseases and mouthwash gargles will be used by the astronauts on their entire bodies and over their special garments. As the astronauts then enter a life raft, the frogmen will spray Betadine over the raft, the spacecraft hatch, the astronauts and themselves in the hope of eliminating any germs that may have returned with the first men on the moon. m Race Meet Royalty 1 m MwmW: i P I AW snra JO s m, IJJ Yvs- - UT-T-T $f"V LJ j 5 !f .i.
