The efficiency of disinfectants containing nanosilver and hydrogen peroxide – An international review

Numerous studies show that these, as well as other specific and non-specific pathogens, often contaminate the environment, including both porous (e.g. curtains, bedding) and non-porous surfaces (e.g. beds, medical devices). In health and social care institutions, disinfection of the environment is a fundamental task of infection control programs. However, the effectiveness of conventional disinfection procedures is adversely affected by a number of factors (e.g. small and/or untrained cleaning staff, unspecified levels of responsibility, type of surface to be disinfected, inappropriate use of disinfectants). In addition, these methods do not always remove pathogens (e.g. Clostridium difficile, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus, multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii). Experts are therefore increasingly emphasizing the need for innovative drugs and solutions (e.g. nanosilver, ozone, ultraviolet-C light, cold fog).

Treatment of whirlpools, jacuzzis, other pools and bathing waters with NANOSEPT AQUA

Continuous treatment is required to keep whirlpools, jacuzzis, and other pools and bathing waters constantly clean. The method and frequency of treatment are influenced by the different types of pools, their size, the habits affecting their use, and other circumstances, so their use according to the protocol is difficult to describe, in each case it can be said to be unique. The disinfection steps are given according to the need to keep the amount of disinfectant in the water at the required level.

Health effects of nanosilver

Nanosilver and other forms of silver are now increasingly used for disinfection due to their antimicrobial properties. As with any new, innovative technology, the following questions are often asked about the application: 1. Can the products that are produced using this substance have a harmful effect on the human body? 2. Can certain bacteria become resistant to nanosilver?
