The Environmentally Friendly ‘Superbug’ Killer

Optim 33TB one step cleaner disinfectant

OptIM disinfectant cleanerIt has long been known that hydrogen peroxide can kill germs without being harmful to users. However, up to now, this remarkable chemical had not been considered stable enough to be practical as the foundation for a system of commercial disinfectant cleaners.

Scientists at Virox Technologies Inc. have now developed a way to put this world’s oldest known antimicrobial to work. Patented accelerated hydrogen peroxide (AHP) is a stable cleaning and disinfecting solution with enhanced germicidal activity that is not harmful to those who use it, or to the environment.

Now available from SciCan Inc. in the U.S.A. through STATIM.US, OPTIM 33 TB with AHP chemistry is the first real breakthrough in chemical germicides in over 25 years. It is not a mere substitute for current surface disinfection technologies, but a truly new technology with demonstrable superiority in a number of key areas:

1. Contact times

  • 1 minute Bactericidal (including MRSA ‘Superbug’, E. Coli and VRE)
  • 1 minute Virucidal (including HIV, Hepatitis C, Hepatitis B, Influenza A and Polio)
  • 5 minutes Tuberculocidal

2. Cleaning efficacy – one-step cleaning and disinfecting ability

3. User Safety – OPTIM 33TB carries no warning labels

4. Environmental Impact – hydrogen peroxide breaks down into water and oxygen

Many chemical disinfectant manufacturers try to strike the difficult balance between the safety and the efficacy of their products. It is easy to create a disinfectant that will kill pathogens, however, that disinfectant may be harmful to users and may not be environmentally responsible.

With OPTIM 33TB, there is no longer a need to compromise on efficacy (contact times), personal safety or environmental integrity.

AHP is a synergistic blend of commonly used ‘safe’ ingredients that when combined with low levels of hydrogen peroxide dramatically increases its germicidal potency and cleaning performance. AHP contains only those ingredients listed on the U.S.A EPA inerts listing and the FDA GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe) listing which contribute to unsurpassed health, safety and environmental sustainability. OPTIM 33TB carries no warning labels.

The benefits and efficacy of AHP have been validated by third party clinical studies conducted by scientific organizations and third party researchers that are recognized by government regulatory agencies in the United States, Canada and other countries around the world.

The applications for AHP are numerous. Widely used in medical offices, it is also commonly used in hospitals, long term care facilities, daycare centers, and other environments.

For an uncompromisingly high standard of infection control, turn to OPTIM 33TB to quickly and safely clean and disinfect.

UPC: 32OZPLUS

Enhance drying in your STATIM® Cassettes with the STAT-DRI PLUS drying agents.

Dry

Treatment of the STATIM Cassette with the STAT-DRI PLUS drying agent will enhance the drying process. Coating the inside surface with STAT-DRI PLUS drying agent induces water to form an even coat on the inside surface, without beading. When the water comes in contact with the hot cassette surfaces, it will evaporate much more efficiently. Spotting is minimized and instruments dry much better.

Uses

  • Use Stat-Dri Plus to protect the interior of your STATIM cassette and to shorten your drying time.
  • Use Stat-Dri Plus as a rinse aid in your HYDRIM instrument washer for spotless instruments and faster drying.

For faster drying and seal lubrication coat the STATIM Cassette:

After cleaning and drying the cassette, treat the interior surfaces with STAT-DRI Plus.

Add to the rinse aid dispenser on your HYDRIM instrument washer for effective drying results. [MSDS]

Stat-Dri Use Protocol

3.9 Preparing Unit for Use


Once the unit is installed and before any instruments are sterilized, run two Wrapped Cycles (see Section 4.8 Statim 2000 - Running a Cycle and 4.10 Statim 5000 - Running a Cycle). Remove the cassette once it has cooled. Clean the top (lid) and bottom (tray) sections using a soft cloth to wipe the inside surfaces and then rinse thoroughly with tap water. Once the cassette is clean and dry, coat the inside surfaces with STAT-DRI.


STAT-DRI


Treatment of the interior surfaces of the cassette with the STAT-DRI drying agent, provided with your unit, will enhance the drying process. (Replacement bottles are available from SciCan, order number 2OZPLUS, 8OZPLUST, 32OZPLUS).


4.3 Statim 5000 — STAT-DRI Plates


The Statim 5000 cassette uses STAT-DRI plates to enhance the drying process for wrapped instruments. The adjustable plates are designed for the unwrapped instruments rack and eliminate the need for a separate wrapped instrument rack. Up to ten plates can be arranged along the length of the rack. Each unit is shipped with five STAT-DRI plates. Additional plates may be ordered from SciCan (SciCan part number 01-103935).

To install and adjust a STAT-DRI plate, follow these steps:
  1. Hold a plate over the desired position, tilted slightly forward with the tabs down.
  2. Insert the tabs between the mesh of the unwrapped instrument rack.
  3. Each tab has an elongated slot. Slide the plate until the wire is at the end of each slot.
  4. Release the plate to the resting position.
  5. Prepare and load instruments for sterilization.


5.1 Cleaning the Cassette

Keeping the Statim cassette clean is good clinical practice and assists in the function of the unit. SciCan recommends that the interior surface be cleaned at least once a week. Use dishwashing soap or a mild detergent that does not contain chlorine. Scrub the inside of the cassette with a cleaning pad designed for use with Teflon™ coated surfaces. After scouring, rinse thoroughly with water to remove all traces of the detergent. Cleaning the inside of your cassette is very important if you regularly sterilize lubricated instruments. Coating the entire inside surface with STAT-DRI / STAT-DRI PLUS drying agent induces water to form an even coat on the inside surface, without beading. The water in contact with the hot cassette surfaces also evaporates much more efficiently. Spotting is minimized and instruments dry much better. STAT-DRI / STAT-DRI PLUS should be applied every 10 cycles, and after every cassette cleaning.


Stat-Dri vs. Jet-Dry

Stat-Dri Plus is specially formulated to protect stainless steel instruments. All microbiological sterilization efficacy testing has been done using Stat-Dri. We have not conducted such tests using Jet-Dry, and therefore cannot provide any data to support using any Jet-Dry products as an alternative.

Keep in mind there are several flavours of Jet-Dry on the market, including Jet-Dry with baking soda, Jet-Dry Turbo-Dry, etc. all of which have slightly different chemical composition. As a result, customers who choose to use Jet-Dry instead of Stat-Dri do so at their 'own risk'.
