Our facility is moving towards standardization of decontaminants or
disinfectants. They prefer all areas use a Sani wipes that kills most
pathogens.
However, we contend for Anatomic pathology we need our liquid bleach not
only as disinfectant or decontaminant but as a cleaning agent for stained
lab-ware. You thoughts?
Also, what concentration of Bleach (5.25 or 10%) is acceptable for use as
both a disinfectant and cleaning agent or should we keep them separate?
We used to buy the hospital grade premade bleach at a 5.25% concentration
but now they want us instead to buy the 99.9% commercial Bleach and dilute
from there. Any suggestions on opaque containers for us to purchase since
bleach break down after a time period, at least for disinfecting?
