Disinfectants

The best quality disinfectants, with versatile uses, against the spread of viruses and bacteria. Before using each one, please read the norms indicated on the label in advance.

Medical disinfectant solutions are designed for both personal use (at home or in the workplace) and specifically for healthcare facilities, the main purpose of which is to destroy viruses and bacteria to the maximum extent possible.

In 2006, the World Health Organization recognized disinfectant solutions as the gold standard for hand care, which should be based on isopropyl or ethyl alcohol.

The review will present medical disinfectant solutions that are popular in 2020. They can be used daily to prevent the spread of viral infections.

Unfortunately, today, disinfectants have become as necessary in the home as food, so we would like to offer you a collection of antiseptic solutions.

What should a good antiseptic solution be like?

We often buy products labeled "antiseptic," but few think about the fact that there are certain standards developed by the WHO.

It is recommended to use isopropyl or ethyl alcohol (as the main ingredients) at a concentration of 60 to 80%. There should be no more than 4 ingredients in total, including distilled water and a moisturizer (glycerin).

It is not recommended to use solutions containing perfumes and dyes.

Hydrogen peroxide at a concentration of 3% can act as an adjuvant that has an antibacterial effect.

In addition, disinfectant solutions are actively used in medicine for hand hygiene. Since their cost is cheaper, organizations do not incur significant losses when purchasing in large volumes.

Quaternary ammonium compounds effectively combat pathogenic organisms, and unlike chlorine-containing products, they are non-toxic to humans and animals. At the same time, they do not cause corrosion when treating surfaces.

Alcohol-based medical hand sanitizers

The gold standard for hand sanitizers in medicine is alcohol-based products, which are the composition recommended by the WHO. The amount of alcohol should vary between 60-80%. It is this ratio that provides an effective way to combat various bacteria and viruses.

Against this background, we can consider Predez Erisan antiseptic hand sanitizer, which is based on 65% isopropyl alcohol and does not contain dyes or fragrances.

Such a composition is very effective in the fight not only against microbes, but also against various viruses: HIV infection, tuberculosis, influenza, SARS, pneumonia, adenoviruses, and others.

The disinfectant solution is made in Finland and is intended for use in medical institutions, which can be used in everyday life to treat hands and surfaces, as it is non-toxic and non-allergenic.

Alcohol-free medical hand sanitizers

Alcohol-free solutions may have good antiseptic properties and do not cause skin dryness or allergic reactions. Compared to alcohol-based solutions, alcohol-free solutions are relatively less expensive.

In this category, we would like to discuss Medonika disinfectant solutions, which are actively used in various medical organizations: clinics, waiting rooms, or hospitals.

This product contains very little alcohol, and the main sanitary function is performed by quaternary ammonium, which effectively fights bacteria and viruses, suppresses their vital activity, and ultimately destroys them.

The solution is suitable for use on hands, gloves, and household items. It remains effective for 3 hours after use.
