Surgical instrument and MD concentrated disinfectant cleaner - BioAkt Instruments®

Non-alcoholic disinfectant solution for the sanitation of surgical instruments and medical devices

BioAkt® Instruments is the concentrated product dedicated to cold and no-rinse disinfection of surgical, dental and professional equipment. Also ideal for the preventive decontamination of medical devices before placing them in the autoclaves and during use in the operating room without the presence of harmful effluvia.

An innovative formulation that, given the residual disinfectant efficacy of 18 hours, allows the safe removal and use of surgical instruments, preserving from microbial attacks until use.

BioAkt® Instruments is not toxic by inhalation, mucous membranes, skin and eyes. It is not corrosive to the materials of which the various instruments are made and its concentration 1:50 (20ml / L) allows for operational economy.

The product can be used without gloves or other personal protective equipment and be disposed of in clear water or the sewer system.

Mechanism of action and method of use

The formula contains stabilized silver ions bound in one or more citric acid molecules.

Germs and bacteria recognize the citric acid contained in BioAkt® as a source of nutrition, metabolizing it. Once the hidden silver ion has penetrated inside the microorganism, it unties itself, escaping from the citric acid and acts as a powerful antimicrobial by weakening adenosine triphosphate (energy transport protein) and thus destroying everything that is vital in the pathogen.

This process leads to the elimination of microbial resistance.

For complete disinfection, immerse the instruments to be decontaminated in a tray with the product, leaving it to act for 2 minutes. Do not rinse to preserve residual effectiveness.
