The healthcare industry utilises a wide range of biocide technologies for whole room disinfection, such as disinfection robots, fogging machines, electrostatic hand sprayers, and those that involve the use of chemical disinfectants in dispersed gas, vapour and/or aerosols.
At Test Labs we can conduct testing on your specific technology to determine the efficacy of the biocide you use, whether that is Hydrogen Peroxide, Ozone, Peracetic Acid, Hypochlorous acid, or other common agents. Our testing is based on BS EN 17272:2020, for which you can obtain a UKAS-accredited report or get data to see how your technology performs in real-use scenario on specified reprocessed items.
Test Labs’ chemistry laboratory can also provide testing on your formulations used within the technology with in-house methods for determining concentrations of biocides like Hydrogen Peroxide and monitoring the exposure ppm during cycles.
