Air Disinfection Using Aerosol Sprayer of Hydrogen Peroxide and Peracetic Acid:Its Clinic Observation / 中华医院感染学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To find out the clinic air disinfectant effect and the damage to human body between air aerosol sprayer of hydrogen peroxide and peracetic acid. METHODS New ninety eight sickrooms were randomly disported into two groups. The group of using peracetic acid was a control one. Then the clinic air disinfectant effect and the damage between two groups were observed. RESULTS After thirty minutes, to sample through flat exposure method. The total number of bacteria of two groups reached the third grade of environment eligible standard without pathogenic bacteria being checked. Hydrogen peroxide had not obvious mucous membrane stimulation and hypersusceptible reaction to human body. But peracetic acid had mucous membrane stimulation and hypersusceptible reaction to human body. CONCLUSIONS The air disinfection using aerosol sprayer is still an available method when there are no person in new sickrooms or extended sickrooms. At present, some chemical disinfectant methods that have strong poisonous reactions and pollute environment, such as peracetic acid, have been restricted to be used because of thrill, toxicity to human body and causticity to goods. But the method of dynamic air disinfectant machine that can be used in the situation of ventilation, dust catching, decontaminating, and ultraviolet irradiation, at the same time having someone has became a new idea of air disinfection.
