Do You Use Low-Temperature Sterilization?
If so, check out a new cost-effective, green alternative to
sterilization wrap: Genesis low-temperature sealed containers
from BD. They're validated for use with STERIS and Advanced
Sterilization Products systems, and they also work with
ethylene oxide systems and pre-vacuum steam. Choose from
many sizes and many accessories, such as instrument pins,
silicone bars, aluminum brackets and basket dividers. Look for
their distinctive orange gaskets, handles and ID tags.

The More Effective Way To Clean Your ORs
Turn over rooms faster and more safely with single-use
PREMIRA microfiber mops and wipes from Contec. The large,
highly absorbent microfiber floor pad (which also works for walls
and ceilings) is compatible with most common disinfectants
and will not neutralize quat- or peroxide-based disinfectants.
The dual-textured material provides fast, effective removal of
debris, body fluids and other contaminants, but it's also gentle
enough to use on flat screens and delicate equipment. Request
an evaluation sample!

This Innovative Scope Drying Device Reduces
Infection Risks
Eliminate potentially harmful moisture in scope channels
following reprocessing with Cygnus Medical's Airtime Flexible
Scope Dryer. Moisture accumulation can lead to microbial
growth. Airtime uses filtered air to dry two scopes simultaneously.
Set independent start and stop times using the dual screen.
Airtime automatically powers down and alerts users if a
potentially clogged channel is detected. Choose from tabletop-
or IV pole-mounted designs.
