Material compatibility
Actosed ® PA Powder is a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and peracetic acid. Therefore, proteins oxidize almost immediately. This leads to quick and effective disinfection. Therefore, it is a safe process for instruments. It is suitable for medical devices made of glass, metals, plastics and endoscope materials.
KARL STORZ, one of the leading endoscope manufacturers, has tested and approved Actosed ® PA Powder as material-compatible.
Instructions for use
Put on protective clothing and protective gloves before use. Fill tap water into a disinfection tray, add Actosed ® PA Powder depending on the amount of water and mix until a bluish discoloration becomes visible. This creates peracetic acid. The recommended usage concentration is 1.62% (16.2 g Actosed® PA Powder per 1 liter of water). Before using it on endoscopes, make sure that the powder has completely dissolved. Disassemble the instruments and place them in the working solution for 5 – 10 minutes. Make sure that all surfaces and cavities are completely covered. After disinfection, remove instruments from the solution, rinse thoroughly with water and allow to dry. The prepared working solution is effective for up to 24 hours. It should then be renewed.
