Understanding Chlorine Dioxide
Our proprietary chlorine dioxide (ClO2) chemistry, is generated by reacting sodium chlorite with citric acid. Tristel ClO2 delivers efficient disinfection at the point of care across diverse medical fields.
How Does Chlorine Dioxide Work?
As an oxidiser, ClO2 reacts by taking electrons from microorganisms, ultimately destroying them. This mode of action prevents the development of resistance to ClO2.
Why Choose Chlorine Dioxide in Healthcare Settings?
Superior Performance
Trusted in hospitals and healthcare settings worldwide for its high-level disinfection efficacy, effectively reducing healthcare-associated infections (HAIs).
Medical Devices Compatibility
Approved to be compatible with the instruments of major manufacturers for use on over 2000 medical devices and many more surfaces globally.
Meets International Standards
Our chlorine dioxide formulations comply with global infection control standards, ensuring reliable and effective disinfection practices.
Ease of Use
Delivers consistent results with one contact time and one dilution ratio per product, ensuring reliable disinfection every time.
Point of Care
Our chemistry works with our innovative delivery systems to facilitate simple but effective point of care disinfection, whilst maintaining an extended shelf life.
Fast Action, Minimal Downtime
Speeds up the disinfection process, reducing downtime in busy healthcare environments.
Mode of Action
Chlorine dioxide (ClO2) provides a selective oxidative mode of action, with a higher affinity for organic matter and microorganisms than nonorganic materials.
This selectivity and enhanced oxidative capacity allow chlorine dioxide to provide biocidal efficacy in Tristel products at relatively low active concentrations, enhancing our compatibility with device and surface materials commonly found in healthcare settings. .
Exceptional Efficacy
Chlorine dioxide destroys bacteria, fungi and yeast by blocking protein production, damaging proteins, modifying amino acids and disrupting DNA. For spores, ClO2 targets and severely disrupts the inner cell membrane, ensuring effective disinfection.
Our chlorine dioxide chemistry has been proven effective against a broad spectrum of organisms from enveloped viruses to bacterial spores.
