I guess the antiseptic is the detergent/ medicine that's used to purify areas that are contaminated:
'' I used an antiseptic to clean the wound "
how's that?

The definition you give is a tad off - but you're in the right area.
"Sepsis" is the presence of pathogenic organisms or their toxins in the blood or tissues or, the poisoned condition resulting from the presence of pathogens or their toxins, as in septicemia. If you are "septic", you have "sepsis".
Therefore an "antiseptic" is a substance capable of preventing infection by inhibiting the growth of microorganisms.
Sentence: You need to clean that cut with an antiseptic before it gets infected.
