[Histonet] AMPHYL

[Bouchal, Rena L]

After Amphyl was discontinued, we switched to Steris Lph Se. Here are the comparisons of the two:
Both are germicidal, fungicidal, and virucidal; both contain active ingredients 0-phenylophenol (amphyl at 2.80%and Steris at 7.7%) instead of the other active ingredient in amphyl (0-benzyl-p-chlorophenol at 7.2%) Steris contains p-tertiary-amphylphenol at 7.6%.  Amphyl is diluted 40cc/1gal for a 1:100 ratio and Steris is diluted 30cc/1gal for 1:100 ratio. The order number for the Steris LpH Se is 6466-08.  Hope this helps.

We can't find Lysol IC here either so any supplier would help and to keep costs down a store would be better than a scientific supplier it possible.  Please id anyone knows let us all know as it is not easy to find.

My materials management department told me that AMPHYL has been 
discontinued. 
Ventana recommends that we clean/decontaminate the Benchmark and the 
Ultras with AMPHYL. 

Has anyone else ran across this?  Has AMPHYL really been discontinued? 
Is there a substitute we can use. 

Thanks everyone!
