Concentrated disinfectants for medical instruments and devices

Classification of disinfectants by chemical composition

Quaternary ammonium and amine-based formulas: Produse precum Klintensiv Aminoquat (a special non-foaming formula, ideal for cleaning and intermediate-level disinfection of dental suction systems by recirculation), Dezicon and Deziamino are intended for the daily reprocessing of surgical and non-surgical instruments. The formulas offer outstanding material compatibility, are non-corrosive and clean secretions effectively without fixing proteins.
Formule enzimatice avansate: Klintensiv Detergent dezinfectant enzimatic concentrat provides combined cleaning and disinfecting action. Its specific enzymes break down and effectively remove biofilms, organic matter and fats from the internal channels of complex instruments or endoscopes, eliminating the need for aggressive mechanical techniques.
Active oxygen-based formulas: Lichidul concentrat Oxoklin performs cold chemical sterilisation of heat-sensitive instruments and flexible endoscopes, while the powder Oxoklin Powder acts as a disinfectant detergent that generates peracetic acid in situ for cleaning and disinfecting instruments.
Chlorine-based effervescent solid formulas: Tabletele Fizzy Tablet (based on sodium dichloroisocyanurate) are indicated for disinfecting instruments and medical devices by full immersion or filling. They release active chlorine and provide a complete spectrum, making them ideal for laboratory glassware, containers and oxidation-resistant instruments.

What types of concentrated products are available for disinfecting medical instruments?

The Klintensiv portfolio includes a variety of concentrated products for disinfecting medical instruments, covering different levels of disinfection: high-level disinfectant detergents (Dezicon and Oxoklin Powder), a high-level disinfectant (Fizzy Tablet), a cold chemical sterilant (Oxoklin) and intermediate-level disinfectant detergents (Concentrated enzymatic disinfectant detergent, Deziamino and Klintensiv Aminoquat).

How is the Concentrated enzymatic disinfectant detergent used for instruments?

Klintensiv's concentrated enzymatic disinfectant detergent is diluted in water at between 0.25% and 5% v/v, depending on the desired spectrum of activity. Pre-cleaned instruments are fully immersed in the tank for the stated contact time; they are then rinsed with water, dried and visually inspected, ready for high-level disinfection or cold chemical sterilisation.

Can concentrated products for medical instruments also be used on surfaces?

All 7 concentrated products for medical instruments in the Klintensiv range can also be used for surface disinfection, applied by spraying or wiping, provided the dilutions and instructions in each product's technical documentation are followed.
