Ebiox Launches Trionic A2Z One Shot

Ebiox is very pleased to announce the launch of a patented solution to the issues surrounding the correct dilution ratios and safe transfer of concentrated product into a trigger spray bottle.

There is an ongoing concern that the correct dilution ratios are maintained when using cleaner disinfectants, incorrect ratios can have an impact on efficacy and be a potential hazard to the user and damaging to materials.

Cleaner disinfectants used in a concentrated format has been know to have caused skin problems, even burns if the concentrate is spilt during the decanting process as either decanted from large containers, 5 litre being the most common or sachets.

Trionic A2Z solution has been independantly tested and proven to be Bactericidal, Virucidal, Fungicidal and Sporicidal.

There are added benefits in that storage space is decreased and transport costs reduced.

WHO and Hand Hygiene!!!!

Ebiox has been driving the use of non alcohol hand rubs for a number of years now, offering Esense Hand Foam as a solution to those Healthcare Workers who have and issue with using alcohol based hand rubs.

This can be for a number of reasons, both problems in use or for religious and cultural reasons.

We already know the WHO has issued a directive that an alternative to ABHR's should be made available to those who will not use ABHR's on religious or cultural grounds.

Well buried deep in the WHO Guidelines on Hand Hygiene in Health Care: A Summary First Global Patient Safety Challenge Clean Care is Safer Care, © World Health Organization 2009, is the following;

"Provide alternative hand hygiene products for HCW's with confirmed allergies or adverse reactions to standard products used in the health-care setting".

 

We know that adverse reactions is one of the main areas reported as to why HCW's do not comply with Hand Hygiene protocols, but many decision makers will not change from ABHR's due to what is after all only a recommendation from the WHO (and CDC).

 

As we can see from the statement above, that there is not a real reason not to change.

 

Yes Ebiox would be delighted to convert totally a healthcare institution, but more importantly we have been striving to have Esense Hand Foam readily available to those who have issues with using ABHR's, therefore driving up compliance levels which ensures greater Duty of Care and safety to patients and staff.

The Clue To What Type of Pathogen It Is, Is In The Name!!!!!!

Over the last couple of Blogs we have talked about confusion with hand hygiene. Here is a classic statement from a company who are promoted as experts and offer a Norovirus outbreak service.

"********" Specialist Hygiene’s advanced Norovirus bacteria disinfection service will ensure your office or workplace is completely disinfected of Norovirus bacteria.

Lets hope they have chosen the correct cleaning and disinfection products!!

Youtube Video Trionic Wipes v Alcohol Based Wipes. Removal of Protein and Biofilm

With ongoing discussions with reference to alcohol wipes fixing proteins and biofilms onto surfaces, Jeff has headed up a video which we believe shows how well Trionic Wipes compare against alcohol based wipes, for removing protein contaminate and biofilm.

It highlights two key requirements for decontaminating surfaces:

 

The need to clean and then disinfect, users of alcohol based wipes for disinfection must use a detergent product for the first essential step, cleaning.

 

Fixing the contaminate to the surface and therefore fixing the biofilm is becoming a point which is discussed more and more. As we know the biofilm is a layer where bacteria inparticular will quite happily live and grow. Removal is an important requirement of decontaminating surfaces.
