How Disinfectants Work
Disinfectants are chemical compounds applied to the surfaces of non-living materials found in our environment so as to destroy the disease-causing pathogens that might be living on them.
The active agents found in these disinfectants are the main factor that helps destroy the pathogens by disrupting their normal life cycle and thereby killing them. The disinfectant solutions should be licensed with the Environmental Protection Agency by definition (EPA).
Commons Types of Disinfectants
Hypochlorite
The most widely used chlorine disinfectants are hypochlorites. Sodium Hypochlorite is available for sale as household bleach. This chemical registered with the EPA is stable and quick-acting. Although usually considered safe, bleach can lead to irritation of the skin and eyes. At high concentrations, it is corrosive to metal and can discolour cloth.
Hypochlorites destroy bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens efficiently. These products may be used by industries for toilets, food prep areas. Follow strict dilution guidelines when using concentrated materials.
Quaternary Ammonium
In regular cleaning, quaternary ammonium compounds are used widely. Quaternary is regarded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to be a low-grade disinfectant effective against so many bacteria and some enveloped viruses.
Quaternary ammonium used in Spartan CDC-10 products and is compatible with most hard or rough surfaces. The appropriate utilization of quaternary ammonium products is on smooth hard surfaces, such as floors, bed-rails, tables, and walls.
What You Should Consider For Your Office
Before deciding on which disinfectant will meet the wishes of your facility, you must evaluate four principal factors. Answers to these questions will provide you with a scheme for supporting the right product for your enterprise.
Effectiveness
Before settling on a disinfectant for your organization, recognize the pathogens and microbes in your facility. There are some pathogens that will only die when a certain disinfectant is used.
Kill Time
For every disinfectant made, their formulas are generated to make a kill at a particular period of time. For the disinfectant to be active, the surface in which it was applied must be visibly wet. Each disinfectant kill time varies based on its formulas and product.
Safety
It is essential to know the safety capacity of the disinfectant. Be sure to confirm if the disinfectant is safe for people and if it is safe for the surfaces. Some disinfectants produced are corrosive.
Ease Of Use
You have to know if the instructions on how to use the disinfectant are suitable for your facility. There are some disinfectant products that have complex steps that are not practicable. Some disinfectants are not effective due to water hardness.
