Contact time has limited impact on the efficacy of disinfectant towelettes when tested under conditions reflective of realistic use

open access: yesAntimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2023
Background Disinfectant towelettes are increasingly being used as a means to prevent transmission of clinically important pathogens which could lead to healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). However, the efficacy of disinfectant towelette products when

A low power flexible dielectric barrier discharge disinfects surfaces and improves the action of hydrogen peroxide [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep 11, 4626 (2021), 2020
There is an urgent need for disinfection and sterilization devices accessible to the public that can be fulfilled by innovative strategies for using cold atmospheric pressure plasmas. Here we explore and evaluate an approach combining a flexible printed circuit design of a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) with an environmentally safe chemical reagent
