Question | Answer |
Factors influencing disinfectant (8) | Type, time exposure, nature of microbiota, pH, temp, concentration, number of microbiota, material to be disinfected |
Desirable features of disinfectant (7) | Cheap and available, safe for body tissues, rapid action, safe for clothes, high penetrating power, effective on most microbiota, stability |
Halogens | Tinsure of Iodine, Hypochlorites, Idosphore, oxidizing agents, do not act well in the presence of a lot of microbiota |
Tinsure of Iodine | Iodine crystals dissolved in alcohol |
Hypochlorites | Used in bleach NaOCl |
Idosphores | Used in detergents |
Alcohols | Lipolytic, 70% dilution is better than concentrate, isopropyl (rubbing alcohol) and ethyl (grain) alcohol |
Aldehydes | Reducing agents, inactivate proteins and cross links between them |
Formalin | 37% aqueous solution of formaldehyde by weight, 40% by volume |
Glutarihyde | cold of liquid sterilization |
Phelolalic compounds | injury to lipids |
Phenol coefficient | Phenol was used as base of comparison at one time |
Creysol | Lysol, surface disinfectant |
Hexachlorophene | Antispetic |
Quaternary ammominum compounds | Surface tension reducers, expose microbes so they can be washed away with water. Zephrian (benzelonium chloride) |
