Many products are marketed using the generic term of “dezinfectant”<\/em>, this leads to confusion among users and the use of products that are not effective.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Thus, it is good to point out that disinfectants have different roles:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) bactericidal<\/strong> - destroy bacteria and microbes such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus hirae, Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella etc;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) virulicide <\/strong>- destroy viruses, acting especially against viruses such as Adenovirus type 5, Herpes simplex type 1, Influenza A avian influenza, hepatitis B, C, HIV, Covid-19, SARS etc;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) fungicide<\/strong> - they destroy fungi such as Aspergillus brasiliensis, Penicillium sp., Candida albicans, Microsporum gypseum etc.;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) levuricid<\/strong> - eliminates yeast;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5) sporicide<\/strong> - they destroy spores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The disinfectant solution should be chosen, depending on the purpose of use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Disinfection of surfaces: <\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

For each type of material it is necessary to take into account its specifics. Wood needs increased protection, while the tiles in the bathroom lend themselves to sanitization with various types of solutions and substances. It is essential to maintain a balance between the efficiency of the cleaning substance used and how much it affects the surface on which it is used. Even more so the toilets, the most used premises of personal or professional offices, need high attention and effective disinfectants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hand disinfection:<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Washing your hands for 20-30 seconds with soap and drying them completely afterwards are steps that prove extremely effective against viruses and bacteria, but what is too much spoils and it is recommended to follow some essential rules. Skin cleansers, soaps or disinfectant gels can cause dermatitis, eczema and cracks in the skin which increases the risk of infections and bacteria ingress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thus, to maximize the effects of hand washing, it is not necessary to do it every 10 minutes, but as effectively as possible:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Before, during and after food preparation<\/li>
  • Before eating<\/li>
  • After using the toilet<\/li>
  • After blowing your nose, you cough or sneeze<\/li>
  • After touching an animal, feed or animal waste<\/li>
  • After playing with the pet, and in other similar situations through which you are exposed to bacteria.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    According to the modal Health Organization, disinfectants are classified into three levels of efficiency:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    High level disinfection.<\/em> This procedure kills vegetative microorganisms and inactivates viruses, but not necessarily a large number of bacterial spores. Such disinfectants are capable of sterilization when the contact time is relatively long (from 6 to 10 hours). High-level disinfectants are used for relatively short periods of time (10-30 minutes). They are recommended for use on medical devices, but not on environmental surfaces such as benches or laboratory floors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Disinfection at the intermediate level.<\/em> This procedure kills vegetative microorganisms (including Mycobacterium Tuberculosis), all fungi and inactivates most viruses. They are commonly used in laboratories-for disinfection of laboratory benches and as part of germicidal detergents used for housekeeping purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Low-level disinfection. <\/em>This procedure kills most vegetative bacteria (except Mycobacterium Tuberculosis), only some fungi and inactivates some viruses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Follow the rules and be healthy<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
