surface load and some microorganisms but
does not kill microorganisms
disinfection is the destruction of
microorganisms that are harmful to us
but disinfectants do not necessarily
clean
before so claw dst
disinfection of the environment
consisted of a three-stage process
first cleaning the surfaces with
detergent and water
second then rinsing away all detergent
residues which would inactivate the
disinfectant
then thirdly cover the entire area again
with the disinfectant this was both
time-consuming and susceptible to user
error that meant it was rarely done
properly
so claw dst's dual action clean and
disinfect makes this a single step
saving time and ensuring dramatically
better implementation and efficacy
so claw dst follows guidelines set out
by the health and safety executive
uk department of health world health
organization and cdc for effective
disinfection and decontamination of

control supervisor
fill dilutor with cold tap water to the
fill line
add one tablet per one liter of cold tap
water to create a 1000 ppm solution
tablets should dissolve in two to three
minutes
to aid dilution place lid on the diluta
do not tighten and gently swirl the

regulation or by your infection control
supervisor
areas should be approached
systematically working downwards in the

from clean to dirty in one direction
these methods are key to ensure full
disinfection of all items while
preventing accidental spread of
organisms or cross contamination
to ensure sufficient contact time
surfaces should be moist but not wet
