Skin Disinfection

 The recommendations of the Robert Koch Institute on disinfection measures for avian influenza do not mention skin disinfection because it plays no part in the transmission of  influenza viruses.

If a product effective against influenza viruses is needed for skin disinfection, we recommend Softasept® N, which has limited virucidal activity.

Properties:

  • Ready-to-use alcoholic solution for pre-surgery skin disinfection, before injections and venous punctures
  • Active against bacteria incl. MRSA, mycobacteria, fungi, viruses (HBV / HIV / HCV, vaccinia, polio)
