摘要: The thorough cleaning and high-level disinfection or sterilisation of heat sensitive instruments equipment, preferably using a validated washer disinfector an effective, non-damaging disinfectant, will minimise the risk infection, prolong life device protect quality diagnostic samples.No disinfectant meets all preferred selection criteria at present, but careful appraisal options, outlined, enable you to choose processor that more nearly meet your requirements.
