One way to prevent the transmission and spread of Covid-19 is always keep ourselves our environment clean. Maintaining personal environmental hygiene can be done by using antiseptics disinfectants. Disinfectants that are not used properly will bad for humans. That why so far spraying disinfectants prevention COVID-19 has been carried out human workers who dressed in complete Personal Protective...

In this paper the writers present results which they obtained, for the most part, in making a comparative study of disinfectants that, might be used by poultrymen, a fact which accounts for the choice of test organisms and various other details of the technic. Although, as the title implies, this work was done chiefly with the hydroxide, carbonate, and phosphate of sodium, the paper also report...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of long term utilization of chemical disinfectants on the color of porcelain shade guides. METHODOLOGY three chemical disinfectants were used in this study: Minuten spray, Lysol ICQuaternary Disinfectant Cleaner (QDC), and Lysol IC Ready to Use Disinfectant Cleaner (RDC). Simulation of disinfecting cycles for one year, two years, and three years were done on V...

A comparison was made of the effectiveness of popular disinfectants (Cavicide, Cidexplus, Clorox, Exspor, Lysol, Renalin, and Wavicide) under conditions prescribed for disinfection in the respective product labels on Pseudomonas aeruginosa either in suspension or deposited onto surfaces of metallic or polymeric plastic devices. The testing also included 7 nonformulated germicidal agents (glutar...

The use-dilution test for evaluating the effectiveness of disinfectants against bacteria was modified to determine the effectiveness of disinfectants against a group of viruses. Modifications were kept to a minimum to retain the general principles of the test and thereby retain the test's familiarity among testing laboratory personnel. Modifications included the use of a standard allantoic flui...

Gastrointestinal endoscopy is gaining popularity for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. However, concerns over endoscope-related nosocomial infections are increasing, together with interest by the general public in safe and efficient endoscopy. For this reason, reprocessing the gastrointestinal endoscope is an important step for effective performance of endoscopy. Disinfectants are essential ...

BACKGROUND Gyrodactylus salaris is a monogenean, which has collapsed tens of wild Atlantic salmon populations. One of the means of preventing the spread of the parasite is the disinfection of the fishing equipment, which is used in the rivers having susceptible salmon populations. Little is known about the dosage of disinfectants against G. salaris. There are not standards for the testing of di...

Testing under laboratory conditions is undoubtedly useful in assessing the activity of disinfectants. However, such testing must be regarded as no more than a preliminary to field trials. This not only indicates the unreliability of laboratory tests, but also poses the wider problem of how any laboratory evaluation can be correlated with the field requirements. Many attempts have therefore been...

The bacterial spirochetes, Treponema spp., are thought to be a major contributor to the etiology of bovine digital dermatitis (DD), a skin disease with worldwide economic impact. Hoofbath strategies are commonly used in an attempt to control and prevent the development of DD and continuing research has been done to develop an optimal hoofbath strategy for this purpose. The aim of this study was...
