Approved Cleanser Active Ingredients for Healthcare Devices

100% of the active ingredients in any cleaner must consist of one or some combination of the following: isopropyl alcohol, bleach/sodium hypochlorite¹ (see important note below), hydrogen peroxide, ammonium chloride, or mild dish soap.

Due to the powerful oxidizing nature of sodium hypochlorite, the metal surfaces on the device are prone to oxidation (corrosion) when exposed to this chemical in the liquid form (including wipes). In the event that these type of disinfectants come in contact with metal on the device, prompt removal with an alcohol-dampened cloth or cotton swab after the cleaning step is critical.
