Trilox Disinfectant (5L)

Trilox 5L Disinfectant Concentrate

Description:

Trilox is a versatile, alkaline disinfectant concentrate with excellent cleaning properties. It’s designed for disinfecting, including combined pre-sterilization cleaning, of medical devices, instruments, equipment, and surfaces. Trilox is a prototype of complex agents based on a triad of active substances from the group of cationic surfactants: quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs), polymeric guanidine derivatives, and tertiary alkylamines. A phenolphthalein test is required.

Composition:

The formulation includes three active substances: polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride, alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride, N,N-bis-(3-aminopropyl)dodecylamine, a biocidal activator, functional additives, and a dye. The pH of a 1% solution is 9.8 ± 0.8.

Consumer Properties:

• Proven Efficacy and Safety: Trilox has been reliably used in healthcare facilities since 2005 without any complaints regarding efficacy (including against hospital strains from various medical profiles) or toxicity.
• Superior Cleaning: Its alkaline pH provides excellent cleaning properties. A 0.2% working solution demonstrates high cleaning efficiency (88%, exceeding the 80% standard for cleaning agents) and excellent rinsability (0.02 mg/dm² according to GOST R 51696-2000).
• Rapid Rotation: Due to its multi-component composition (approximately 80% active ingredients), it requires rapid rotation to prevent microbial resistance.
• Safe Formulation: The total amount of active substances in the concentrate does not exceed 15.5%.
• Material Compatibility: Trilox is non-corrosive to medical instruments and other items made from corrosion-resistant steels, titanium alloys, and non-ferrous metals (brass, copper), except for instruments that cannot withstand steam sterilization or boiling.

Applications:

• Disinfection and Pre-sterilization Cleaning: Medical devices (metals, surgical and dental instruments, endoscopes), equipment (including ultrasound transducers and dental handpieces), and surfaces. Effective against bacteria (including tuberculosis), viruses, and fungi (candidiasis and dermatophytosis).
• Surface Disinfection: Rooms, furniture, incubators, sanitary equipment, instruments, linen, dishes (including single-use), utensils, medical waste (classes B and C), and biological fluids. Also effective on shoes, cleaning supplies, and toys.
• Disinfection in Special Settings: Pharmaceutical and biotechnology facilities (classes C and D cleanrooms), outbreaks of plague, cholera, and tularemia, tuberculosis infections, emergencies, public service facilities, educational institutions, and transportation (rail and metro).
• Specific Applications: Disinfection of BCG vaccine (even expired or damaged), general cleaning, and dishwashing in food service areas.

Antimicrobial Activity:

Trilox is effective against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria (including Mycobacterium terrae), highly dangerous pathogens (plague, cholera, tularemia), viruses (adenoviruses, influenza viruses, parainfluenza viruses, avian influenza, other respiratory viruses, enteroviruses, rotaviruses, poliovirus, hepatitis viruses, herpes virus, atypical pneumonia, HIV, etc.), and fungi (Candida, Trichophyton, Aspergillus).
