Ensuring the Compatibility of Our Disinfectants Is a Top Priority
While no disinfectant can guarantee absolute compatibility with all materials, our rigorous in-house testing, strategic collaborations with medical device manufacturers, and stringent external testing at ISO 17025 accredited laboratories for final material compatibility evaluations-affirm that our disinfectants are exceptionally suited for a broad spectrum of surfaces, encompassing various metals, plastics, and polymers.
Note
-
No visible surface damage or effect on the material is likely to occur when used according to label directions. No change to the integrity of the material is expected.
-
Some visible surface damage such as tarnishing or clouding may be seen with long-term exposure. Little to no effect on material intergrity is expected. Periodic wiping of surfaces with a clean damp cloth to remove residue can help to minimize damage.
-
Visible damage to the surface is likely to occur with long-term exposure and some effect on material integrity is possible. Surfaces should be wiped with a clean damp cloth immediately after the contact time has been reached to reduce the risk of damage. Users should evaluate the risk of surface damage vs the benefits of disinfectant efficacy against pathogens to determine whether the products is appropriate for use.
The Diversity of Materials in Healthcare – From Metals to Polymers – Makes Compatibility with Disinfectants and Cleaners Crucial
Recognizing and addressing material incompatibilities is of paramount significance in the medical industry. The utilization of disinfectants and cleaners that are not harmonious with specific materials can result in detrimental outcomes, including material degradation, corrosion, or impaired functionality in essential healthcare instruments. These incompatibilities can induce chemical reactions, hasten wear and tear, and ultimately curtail the useful lifespan of these critical tools. Furthermore, material degradation or corrosion can establish an optimal environment for pathogenic proliferation, thereby compromising the disinfection and cleaning processes designed to uphold the sterility of healthcare environments. Consequently, the effectiveness and durability of healthcare instruments are contingent not only on their manufacturing quality but also on the intricate interaction between the materials comprising them and the disinfectants and cleaners applied to preserve their structural integrity and
safety.
The Challenge of Degradation, Corrosion, or Loss of Functionality
The healthcare industry encounters substantial challenges when it comes to disinfecting and cleaning medical instruments, primarily due to the extensive array of materials employed in these tools. The paramount objective is to eradicate pathogens effectively while safeguarding the integrity and functionality of these instruments.
A significant hurdle in healthcare revolves around the potential harm that specific disinfectants and cleaners can cause to diverse instrument materials. The chemical interactions between disinfectants, cleaners, and instrument materials can result in corrosion, structural harm, or diminished performance. For instance, chlorine-based disinfectants and cleaners can erode metals like stainless steel, alcohol-based solutions may render plastics and rubber fragile, and quaternary ammonium compounds (Quats) can leave residues that adversely impact instrument performance.
The resolution for addressing the degradation, corrosion, and functional loss of healthcare instruments hinges on a collaborative approach. Instrument manufacturers must prioritize the use of durable and resilient materials. Simultaneously, disinfectant and cleaner manufacturers should emphasize the formulation of disinfectants and cleaners that are gentle on these materials while maintaining their efficacy.
At Oro Clean Chemie AG, we wholeheartedly embrace this approach as part of our unwavering commitment to excellence in healthcare disinfection. We ensure that our disinfectants and cleaners are not only potent in eliminating pathogens but also compatible with a wide range of healthcare instrument materials. This ensures that healthcare professionals never find themselves in the challenging position of choosing between clinical effectiveness and the longevity of their vital healthcare instruments.
FAQ
-
When should I use an ultrasonic device for cleaning and disinfection?
An ultrasonic device is especially suitable to clean and disinfect heavily contaminated instruments, or to remove stubborn residues such as cement or plaster that persist after disinfection. Following such cleaning, however, the instruments must be disinfected again. Devices with many sensitive parts, such as handpieces, generally cannot be cleaned in an ultrasonic device.
