MICROBIOLOGY: Micro-Cide™ 28 HLD produces high-level disinfection at room temperature in as little time as 25 minutes and complete sterilization in 10 hours at room temperature. CHEMISTRY: Micro-Cide™ 28 HLD is a virtually surfactant-free, free rinsing activated glutaraldehyde liquid chemical sterilant and high-level disinfectant. Its active ingredient is glutaraldehyde in a nominal concentration of 3%. When the powdered activator is added, the solution turns green in color to indicate its readiness for use. In addition to the active ingredient, this ready-to-use solution contains buffers, wetting agents, a rust and corrosion inhibitor and a pleasant fragrance. CLINICAL / IN-USE STUDIES: Reprocessing flexible fiber endoscopes in-use studies supports the effectiveness of Micro-Cide™ 28 HLD in actual use. (ASTM 1518-94 protocol). In addition, a simulated use-test was conducted to support the contact condition for high-level disinfection of endoscopes at 25°C at 25 minutes. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of Micro-Cide™ 28 HLD to kill M.Terrae dried on flexible fiber endoscopes. (Studies were performed after 28 days of simulated re-use following prescribed AOAC testing methods).
