Biological indicators (BIs) have become the industry standard for verification of hydrogen peroxide vapour (HPV) decontamination efficacy. This white paper discusses BIs for use with HPV and some of the factors associated with inconsistent performance of BIs used to assess HPV bio-decontamination cycles.
This white paper examines two different hydrogen peroxide-based room decontamination systems: hydrogen peroxide vapour (HPV) and aerosolised hydrogen peroxide (aHP).
When reviewing the best method of bio-decontamination to apply for any given application, it should be considered on its merit in a number of areas such as safety, efficacy, ease of use and compatibility. Due to those factors, using formaldehyde (one of the older bio-decontamination methods) is becoming increasingly rare as safer methods are sought. Copious data exists for a number of alternative methods of bio-decontamination; this paper reviews the available information and compares/contrasts two of the more widely implemented methods, hydrogen peroxide vapour (HPV) and chlorine dioxide (CD).
Use of hydrogen peroxide vapour (HPV) is a recognised and recommended solution for the decontamination of small aseptic processing enclosures. Due to the historic limitations and lack of understanding of this technology, other larger scale applications have often not been considered. However, over the last 20 years Bioquell has developed world leading expertise in the bio-decontamination of large areas including hospitals, biomedical facilities, pharmaceutical production areas and bio-containment facilities. This paper discusses a service-based approach to large scale decontamination and the benefits hydrogen peroxide vapour technology can offer.
