Glutaraldehyde in Hospital Wastewater
Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2002Glutaraldehyde (GA) solutions are widely used in hospitals to disinfect reusable fiber-optic endoscopes. These solutions are dumped after use in the aquatic environment without any particular safety precautions. Taking into account the quantity of GA consumed daily and the released water volume, the predicted hospital wastewater concentration was ...

Biological effects of residual glutaraldehyde in glutaraldehyde‐tanned collagen biomaterials
Journal of Biomedical Materials Research, 1980AbstractGlutaraldehyde is commonly used to control physical and biological properties of collagen structure by means of intramolecular and/or intermolecular crosslinking of collagen molecules. Solubility, antigenicity, and biodegradation of naturally occurring or reconstituted collagenous matrices are effectively reduced by glutaraldehyde treatment ...

Glutaraldehyde-tanned microvascular grafts
British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 1989In this study the efficacy of preserving microvascular heterografts with glutaraldehyde tanning was investigated. These were compared with glutaraldehyde-tanned autografts. Previous studies have found that untreated autograft veins maintain a 95% patency rate, whilst untreated heterograft veins (Group 1) had a 15% patency rate at 4 weeks in this study.

Nursing Standard, 2000
Glutaraldehyde is an effective chemical for killing micro-organisms that is used in a variety of healthcare settings to rapidly clean instruments. It is highly toxic in even small concentrations and needs to stored and handled carefully. Diane Romano-Woodward explains how nurses can ensure that adequate precautions are taken to prevent harm to staff ...

A glutaraldehyde-fuchsin reagent
The Histochemical Journal, 1969A glutaraldehyde-fuchsin reagent is described. Its preparation avoids the time-consuming ‘ripening period’, associated with Gomori's aldehyde-fuchsin. Elastic tissue, insular β-cells (after an appropriate prior oxidation) and various other tissue components (e.g.

The British journal of theatre nursing : NATNews : the official journal of the National Association of Theatre Nurses, 1994
January 1994 and the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations (COSHH) are being amended to include among others anaesthetic gases. For COSHH to be effective it has to be enforced. In order to see how this might be achieved one can perhaps look at the effectiveness of the Regulations since 1989.
