Our Factory Supply Glutaraldehyde Sterilant with CAS number 111 - 30 - 8 is a high - quality chemical product. Glutaraldehyde is a dialdehyde with the molecular formula C₅H₈O₂. It appears as a clear, colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent odor.
The product is typically supplied in different concentrations according to the customer's requirements. Common concentrations range from 2% to 50%. It has a boiling point of around 187 - 189 °C and a melting point of - 14 °C. The density is approximately 1.06 g/cm³ at 20 °C. It is soluble in water, ethanol, and ether, which makes it highly adaptable for various applications.
The quality of our glutaraldehyde sterilant is strictly controlled during the manufacturing process. We ensure that it meets the highest industry standards for purity and sterility, which is why we can offer it at the best price in the market.
Glutaraldehyde sterilant has a wide range of uses in different industries. In the medical field, it is widely used for the disinfection and sterilization of medical equipment such as endoscopes, respiratory therapy equipment, and dental instruments. Its ability to inactivate a broad spectrum of microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, viruses, and spores, makes it an ideal choice for preventing the spread of infections in healthcare facilities.
In the veterinary industry, it can be used to disinfect animal housing, equipment, and surgical instruments. This helps to maintain a clean and healthy environment for animals and prevent the outbreak of diseases.
In the research and laboratory settings, glutaraldehyde is used as a fixative for electron microscopy. It helps to preserve biological samples in a state that is close to their natural structure, allowing for detailed examination under the microscope.
When using the glutaraldehyde sterilant, it is crucial to follow the safety guidelines. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves, goggles, and a lab coat, to avoid skin and eye contact.
For medical equipment disinfection, first, clean the equipment thoroughly to remove any organic matter. Then, immerse the equipment in a properly diluted glutaraldehyde solution. The concentration and immersion time depend on the type of equipment and the level of disinfection required. For example, a 2% glutaraldehyde solution may be used for high - level disinfection with an immersion time of at least 20 - 30 minutes. After disinfection, rinse the equipment thoroughly with sterile water to remove any residual glutaraldehyde.
For surface disinfection in veterinary facilities or laboratories, prepare the glutaraldehyde solution according to the recommended dilution ratio. Use a clean cloth or sprayer to apply the solution evenly on the surface. Let the surface remain wet for the specified contact time, usually 10 - 30 minutes, depending on the target microorganisms.
Case 1: A large - scale hospital was facing a high rate of nosocomial infections associated with endoscope use. They started using our Factory Supply Glutaraldehyde Sterilant for endoscope disinfection. By following the proper disinfection procedures, they diluted the glutaraldehyde to a 2% solution and immersed the endoscopes for 30 minutes. Within a few months, the rate of endoscope - related infections decreased significantly. The hospital staff reported that the sterilant was easy to use and effective in killing a wide range of pathogens.
Case 2: A veterinary clinic was dealing with the outbreak of a fungal infection in their animal housing. They used our glutaraldehyde sterilant to disinfect the entire housing area. They prepared a 3% glutaraldehyde solution and sprayed it on all surfaces, including cages, floors, and walls. After a single disinfection, the fungal growth was visibly reduced, and within a week, the infection was completely under control. The clinic staff was satisfied with the product's performance in eliminating the fungus and preventing its recurrence.
