Chlorine Dioxide Gas Decontamination of a 65,000 Cubic Foot Surgical Barrier Facility
INTRODUCTION Surgical barrier facilities are by necessity highly controlled to maintain sterility. Any breach of containment can introduce contaminants which could potentially find their way into the animals being operated on. As such, personnel undergo stringent gowning and entry procedures, quarantines if they visit other animal facilities and various other operating procedures to minimise th...
متن کاملDisinfection of football protective equipment using chlorine dioxide produced by the ICA TriNova system
BACKGROUND Community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus outbreaks have occurred in individuals engaged in athletic activities such as wrestling and football. Potential disease reduction interventions include the reduction or elimination of bacteria on common use items such as equipment. Chlorine dioxide has a long history of use as a disinfectant. The purpose of this investi...
متن کاملInactivation of Salmonella on Eggshells by Chlorine Dioxide Gas
Microbiological contamination of eggs should be prevented in the poultry industry, as poultry is one of the major reservoirs of human Salmonella. ClO2 gas has been reported to be an effective disinfectant in various industry fields, particularly the food industry. The aims of this study were to evaluate the antimicrobial effect of chlorine dioxide gas on two strains of Salmonella inoculated ont...
متن کاملLow-temperature decontamination with hydrogen peroxide or chlorine dioxide for space applications.
The currently used microbial decontamination method for spacecraft and components uses dry-heat microbial reduction at temperatures of >110°C for extended periods to prevent the contamination of extraplanetary destinations. This process is effective and reproducible, but it is also long and costly and precludes the use of heat-labile materials. The need for an alternative to dry-heat microbial ...
متن کاملLaboratory evaluation of large-scale decontamination approaches.
AIMS To evaluate the effectiveness of two spray-based decontamination methods for surface contamination reduction and to determine the potential for contamination spread by these methods. METHODS AND RESULTS Material coupons (treated plywood and concrete) were contaminated with c. 1 × 10(7) spores of Bacillus atrophaeus by aerosol deposition. Decontaminants (pH-adjusted bleach or Spor-Klenz(®...
