NEW Sterilising Wipes

Decontamination specialist Lancer has introduced a new sterilising wipe, Lancer SUPROX. Unlike many other wipes which are only bactericidal, SUPROX are also virucidal, fungicidal and, importantly, sporicidal. Not only will it help combat the frontline healthcare issues of MRSA and hospital acquired infection generally but it is ideal for disinfecting surfaces in laboratories where micro-organisms and infection are a potential problem.

Lancer SUPROX wipes can kill 99.9% of all organisms (spores will need a little longer) within a few seconds contact time and yet are completely harmless to the user and the environment. Unlike many other wipes which are only bactericidal, SUPROX are also virucidal, fungicidal and, importantly, sporicidal. Based on superoxidised water produced by electro-chemical process, there is none of the health issues or long contact times involved with alcohol-based alternatives; nor do SUPROX wipes require activation. The thick impregnated wipes are supplied in tubs of 35. They are tough, ready to use and easily dispensed. No additional pre-clean or rinse wipes are neededà.Lancer SUPROX are 3-in-1 wipes which do the lot. As well as disinfecting the external surfaces of endoscopes and ENT items, the wipes can be used to decontaminate all hard surfaces, shelves, trolleys, etc in any critical area in hospital, from outpatients to wards as well as in clinical laboratories In addition to the wipes, Lancer SUPROX will shortly be available in two other useful forms. As a liquid for machine use in Automated Endoscope Reprocessors for the complete disinfection (external and channels) of any flexible scope; as well as in solution for general disinfection by immersion, especially for equipment which is heat sensitive. As a hand-held spray for regular cleaning of any hard surface where highly effective disinfection is required. The increased focus on infection control means there are many products currently competing in this market. Lancer is confident that SUPROX is the most effective and safest and that choosing a name you can trust is vital. For more information contact Lancer on 01223 861665 or email [email protected]
