What is Avywipes?
Avywipes is a disinfectant wet wipes for use on any non-porous and non-invasive surface or medical device, especially plastic surfaces that are sensitive to alcohol.
What does contact time refer to?
It is the required time for the disinfectant to act on germs.
Avywipes will require a 5 minutes contact time to ensure an optimal disinfection,
during which the surface will not necessarily remain wet but the disinfectant will be active.
What is the different between cleaning and disinfection?
Cleaning only removes dirt and keep the surface visibly clean, but not necessarily kill the germ. Disinfection will ultimately kill the germ and leaves the surface free from becoming an infection source.
What is Avywipes mechanism of action?
The mechanical action of the wipe enhances the level of disinfection by removing soil and bioburden to allow the disinfectant to act directly on the surface. The soil and bioburden collected on the wipe are then killed by the disinfectant that remains on the wipe. The liquid released from the wipe still contains the active ingredients at sufficient levels to ensure the disinfection levels stipulated.
Do you recommend to wear gloves when using Avywipes?
Gloves are not required for use based on product ingredients; however they are recommended to be worn in the presence of blood borne pathogens and for universal precaution reasons in health care settings. It is good practice in the hygiene protocols to wear gloves, when cleaning or disinfecting.
What is the active ingredient in Avywipes?
Avywipes contain polyhexamethylene biguanide, an anti microbial that act at very low concentrations. It has a unique method of action: the polymer strands are incorporated into the bacterial cell wall, which disrupts the membrane and reduces its permeability, which has a lethal effect to bacteria. It is also known to bind to bacterial DNA, alter its transcription, and cause lethal DNA damage. The formulation in Avywipes has been tested to ensure its efficacy.
What material is the wiping cloth made of?
Avywipes wiping cloth are made of highest quality non woven spunlace. So that it can be used even on sensitive surfaces, such as computer hardware, touch screens and keyboards.
Are Avywipes safe for use on skin?
Avywipes has been developed and tested for use as a hard surface disinfectant only.
However, it is safe to skin as it contains aloe vera to retain skin moisture.
