Efficacy of Improved Hydrogen Peroxide against Important Healthcare-Associated Pathogens

Year: 2012

Type: article

Abstract: This study was designed to test in vitro efficacy of 2 improved hydrogen peroxide (HP) products against 3 standard HP products and 1 quaternary ammonium compound. Improved HP is significantly superior to standard HP at the same concentration and can be used for disinfection of environmental surfaces or noncritical patient care items.
