A useful guide to decontamination is MHRA leaflet DB2003(06). Do not use abrasive cleaners as this could damage the surface of the equipment. For cleaning, wipe with a clean cloth soaked in detergent solution and wring out. Depending on the detergent manufacturer’s instructions the solution may be heated. Wipe all surfaces of the equipment and the cloth should be re-immersed periodically and the detergent changed frequently. The detergent should be rinsed or wiped off using a clean cloth immersed in clean water and wrung out. To disinfect make sure the equipment has been cleaned and dried and then wipe over with a clean cloth and a compatible liquid disinfectant. After disinfecting clean with clean water and dry. When using detergent or disinfectants then please refer to manufacturers’ instructions and if unsure then consult your local Infection Control Specialist for advice. This equipment can be cleaned/disinfected by moist heat at 80oC for a minimum of 1 minute or autoclaved at 80oC for at least 1 minute.
