F10 Sterilant Solution 5000ml
The F10 STERILANT is a high-performance, surface-acting, biocidal compound derived from the F10 core actives shared by the F10 disinfectant product range, for rapid sterilization of heat-sensitive devices and surgical instruments. The product can be used for the cold sterilization of stainless steel instruments, flexible and rigid endoscopes, urinary catheters, endotracheal tubes, suture needles, latex drains, clipper blades, and sensitive dental, orthopedic, and ophthalmology instruments.
ANTIMICROBIAL ACTION
The antimicrobial action of the preparation is based upon the proprietary branded F10 compound. The mechanism of action of F10 is derived from the mechanisms of action of each component taken separately, as well as from the additive synergistic action of all components combined. At the concentrations in the product, F10 has been assessed as giving a > log reduction in microbial counts against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, fungi, yeasts and moulds, enveloped and non-enveloped viruses, bacterial and fungal spores.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
To achieve a log reduction of > log8, the following programme should be followed:
- Rinse the instrument/device with clean water and brush off surface debris as necessary.
- Thoroughly brush with F1OSCXD Disinfectant/Cleanser at a 1:100 dilution (or F1OCLXD Disinfectant/Cleanser at a 1:20 dilution) and leave fully submerged for 10 minutes.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
- Fully submerge in F10 STERILANT for 10 minutes (ensure all surfaces are exposed to the solution and lumens are filled); no need to rinse.
