Effectiveness of a novel ozone and hydrogen peroxide gas-vapour system for the rapid high level disinfection of surfaces and healthcare spaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
Methods Ozone gas at 80 parts per million (ppm) was combined with 1% stabilized hydrogen peroxide vapour at 80% relative humidity in a test chamber and upscaled to a 82 cubic meter room using 3.75% hydrogen peroxide at 30 minutes. Test organisms included methicillin resistant S. aureus, vancomycin resistant Enterococcus, E. coli, P. aeruginosa, and C. difficile spores dried onto stainless steel discs.

Effectiveness of a novel ozone-based system for the rapid high-level disinfection of health care spaces and surfaces.
BACKGROUND Vapor-based fumigant systems for disinfection of health care surfaces and spaces is an evolving technology. A new system (AsepticSure) uses an ozone-based process to create a highly reactive oxidative vapor with broad and high-level antimicrobial properties. METHODS Ozone gas at 50-500 ppm was combined with 3% hydrogen peroxide vapor in a test chamber and upscaled in rooms measurin...

متن کاملUse of hydrogen peroxide vapour & plasma irradiation in combination for quick decontamination of closed chambers
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Various conventional methods such as gaseous, vapour and misting systems, fogging, manual spray and wipe techniques employing a number of chemical agents are used for decontamination of enclosed spaces. Among all these methods, use of aerosolized formaldehyde is the most preferred method due to cost-effectiveness and practical aspects. However, being extremely corrosive ...
متن کاملAdvanced Oxidation Process for Haloacetic Acid Removal in Tehranpars Water Treatment Using CuO Nanocatalyst
Potentially harmful disinfection byproducts (DBPs), as a significant challenge in water treatment, are formed when oxidizing disinfectants react with natural organic matters (NOM). Unfortunately, an unwanted side effect is the formation of harmful by-products, such as THMs and HAAs, following the chlorination stage. DBPs cause a variety of diseases like cancer in humans. In this ...
