Sterilant: Physical or chemical agent(s) or process which completely eliminates or destroys all forms of life, particularly microorganisms. Disinfectant: An agent that destroys pathogens by physical or chemical means. Disinfection processes do not ensure the same margin of safety associated with sterilization processes and can vary in their extent of microorganism elimination. This variation leads to subcategories, the first of which is high-level disinfection. High-Level Disinfection: A process utilizing a sterilant under less than sterilizing conditions. The process kills all forms of microbial life except for large numbers of bacterial spores. Disinfection activities range from simple soaking of small instruments to automated processing of complex lensed instruments, such as endoscopes. Exposure to glutaraldehyde as a highlevel disinfectant occurs primarily during the following activities:
■ activating and pouring glutaraldehyde solution into or out of a cleaning container system (e.g., soaking basin in manual disinfecting operations and reservoir in automated processors);
■ opening the cleaning container system to immerse instruments to be disinfected;
■ agitating glutaraldehyde solution;
■ handling of soaked instruments;
■ removing instruments from the container system;
■ rinsing the channels of instruments containing residual glutaraldehyde solution;
■ flushing out instrument parts with a syringe;
■ drying instrument interiors with compressed air;
■ disposing of “spent” glutaraldehyde solutions to the sanitary sewer;
■ performing maintenance procedures, such as filter or hose changes on automated processors that have not been pre-rinsed with water.

PRODUCTION PROCESS
AND
PRODUCTION PROCESS
MANUFACTURING PROCESS OF GLUTARALDEHYDE DISINFECTANTS is not very complicated. For the production, there is need usable and tried a formulation, raw materials and mixing tank. For raw materials to be used, quantities to be used and ingredients usage rankings, you should look into this formulation. Therefore, formulation and productıon methods of glutaraldehyde disinfectant solutions are important. If you have not a good formulation, you cannot make healthy and efficient production of any disinfectant products and derivatives.
