Hospital disinfection
< 1 min reading time

I’m not sure if this is the right forum, but I’m looking for some information regarding methods of disinfection in medical facilities. I have worked on a system that was very effective in killing very aggressive agents and was thinking that other potential applications might include medical facilities. Can someone provide direction?

High level disinfection may not be enough. Take a look into EtO sterilization. Specifically the EOGas 4 by Andersen Products.

Vincent Suzara Just remember it's more of a metals surface thing in medical. If your process won't fry electronics (read my patent) we're interested.

Barry Martin Jacob,

Thank you for your response. After reading a bit about the ethylene oxide sterilization, I think the applications for what I have in mind is very different and would have different applications and strengths.

The system I was mentioning generates a liquid rather than a gas and would be applied as a wet film. I see it not being used in the same way that I read about EtO.

Barry Martin Vincent,
Thanks for the comment. The disinfection media is a liquid film, so contact surfaces is really my focus of applications. The media responded very quickly and effectively, so I'm thinking it may be advantageous. I need to find the right partner.

Vincent Suzara Barry, a pleasure. To the degree you can share, does the process involve any heating and is the liquid corrosive in any way to metals or polymers? Our devices are micro-motor based and obviously need to be sterile. Thanks

Barry Martin No heat is involved and to my mind is relatively low on corrosion, but there are some components that would be considered corrosive to some materials. I was thinking of surfaces such as walls, floors, counters, etc. While the fluid may be used with other equipment, I'd want to look at specifics before commenting.
