1. Sterilization effect of chlorine dioxide disinfectant
Bactericidal effect: Chlorine dioxide is a broad-spectrum, highly effective sterilizing agent. Many foreign studies have shown that chlorine dioxide can kill many pathogens such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus at very low concentrations (0.1 ppm). Even under the interference of organic matter, all microorganisms such as bacterial propagules, hepatitis viruses, bacteriophages, and bacterial spores can be completely killed at a concentration of several tens of ppm.
2. Safety of chlorine dioxide disinfectant
Safety performance: A large number of foreign experimental studies have shown that chlorine dioxide is a safe, non-toxic disinfectant, no "three-way" effect (carcinogenic, teratogenic, mutagenic), and does not occur with organic matter during the disinfection process. The reaction produces organic chlorides or other toxic substances that can produce "triads". However, since chlorine dioxide has a very strong oxidizing power, it should be avoided at high concentrations (>500 ppm). When the concentration is less than 500ppm, its effect on the human body can be neglected. When it is less than 100ppm, it will not have any influence on the human body, including physiological and biochemical effects. There is no sensitization to the skin. In fact, the conventional use concentration of chlorine dioxide is much lower than 500 ppm, and is generally only about several tens of ppm. Therefore, chlorine dioxide is also recognized internationally as a safe, non-toxic green disinfectant.
