Hypochlorous acid disinfectant is a widely used disinfection product, which has the advantages of strong killing power, broad spectrum of sterilization, and good environmental protection, but there are also some drawbacks that need to be paid attention to when using.
1. How to use hypochlorous acid disinfectant:
Follow the instructions on the package and dilute an appropriate amount of hypochlorous acid disinfectant solution in clean water, usually 5-10 ml of hypochlorous acid disinfectant per liter of water.
Clean, wipe, or spray the surface or item to be disinfected with diluted hypochlorous acid disinfectant, ensuring that the surface of the item is completely covered with liquid.
Allow the disinfectant to sit on the surface for a period of time, usually 5-10 minutes.
Rinse off with clean water.
2. Advantages of hypochlorous acid disinfectant:
Strong killing power: at room temperature, the killing time of Campylobacter, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, MASA, vitiligo, gram-negative aerobic bacillus is less than 15s, and the killing time of Aspergillus niger and black variant spores of Bacillus subtilis is less than 30s at 40 degrees Celsius. Also at room temperature, hypochlorous acid water with an available chlorine content of 50mg L for 15s inactivates influenza virus and norovirus. The logarithmic value of hypochlorous acid water with an available chlorine content of 200mg l for 10min-20min on the spores of black variant of subtilis was greater than 5.
Widespread sterilization: Hypochlorous acid water can kill all kinds of microorganisms, including bacterial propagules, viruses, fungi and spores.
Good environmental protection: hypochlorous acid disinfectant is more environmentally friendly than general disinfectant, they are essentially different in composition, under the condition of open and not protected from light, hypochlorous acid water can be decomposed into oxygen, water and chloride ions by itself, so there is no harmful residue. It does not decompose toxic gases, and it is better to kill bacteria from the inside of the germs.
Instant sterilization: Hypochlorous acid has the ability to sterilize instantaneously.
3. Disadvantages of hypochlorous acid disinfectant:
Irritation of the respiratory tract: Hypochlorous acid disinfectant contains chloride ions and hypochlorite ions, which are highly irritating and easy to irritate the respiratory tract, causing symptoms such as burning, stinging and coughing in the respiratory tract.
Induce ** disease: Long-term exposure to hypochlorous acid disinfectant will also be stimulated, which may induce contact dermatitis, exfoliative dermatitis and other ** diseases.
Burn the conjunctiva of the eye: The conjunctiva of the eye is a relatively fragile tissue of the human body, if the hypochlorous acid disinfectant is accidentally splashed into the eye during use, it may burn the conjunctiva of the eye, resulting in redness, pain, etc., and in severe cases, it will also cause vision loss.
Damage to the mucosa of the digestive tract: hypochlorous acid disinfectant is relatively corrosive, if taken by mistake, it will cause damage to the mucosal tissues of the esophagus and stomach, causing mucosal avulsion or erosion, and in severe cases, it may cause upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
Poisoning: If the concentration of sodium hypochlorite disinfectant is too high and the contact time is relatively long, it may cause poisoning reactions, resulting in episodic dry cough, retrosternal pain, dyspnea, rapid heartbeat and other symptoms, and a small number of patients may be accompanied by bluish complexion and impaired consciousness.
Therefore, the following points need to be paid attention to when using hypochlorous acid disinfectant:
Follow the instructions on the package to use the disinfectant properly and avoid overuse or misuse.
Pay attention to personal protection during use, and avoid direct contact with disinfectant or inhalation of the smell of disinfectant.
Hypochlorous acid disinfectant should be stored out of the reach of children to avoid accidental ingestion or misuse.
If you experience any discomfort, discontinue use and seek medical help.
It can use hydrogen peroxide silver ion composite disinfectant, which is safer, more efficient, food grade, colorless, tasteless, no residue and non-toxic. It will not cause harm to the human body and is basically non-corrosive.
