Research Highlights: Efficacy of Improved Hydrogen Peroxide Against Important Healthcare-Associated Pathogens

Rutala WA.

There is evidence to support that environmental contamination plays a significant role in the spread of VRE, MRSA, Clostridium difficile and Acinetobacter. These organisms have been shown to survive on environmental surfaces for days and even months causing a need for fast, safe and effective disinfectant technologies. Daily disinfection of patient care areas is often achieved in the health care environment using a one-step EPA registered hospital disinfectant such as a QUAT, however, a relatively new yet proven technology known as Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide^® (AHP^®), has become a market leading chemistry that is the perfect balance between safety and efficacy.
