METHODOLOGICAL RECOMMENDATIONS for application of neutral anolyte produced on the Stel-10H-120-01 installation for disinfecting performed at the municipal economy sites and in hotels 1. GENERAL DATA
This Methodological Recommendations Sheet is intended for attention of administrations of the hairdresser, bath and hotel enterprises, as well as for persons handling solutions of the neutral anolyte in the above institutions, and for the specialists of the State Sanitary-Epidemiological Inspection centres auditing these institutions.
The Stel-10H-120-01 produces the neutral anolyte by means of electrochemical activation of the sodium chloride in the anode chamber of a flow-through electrochemical reactor.
The Stel-10H-120-01 installation produces neutral anolyte with the active chlorine concentration 0.03; 0.05; 0.06; 0.09%, PH 6.5_1.0, in the amount of 40 to 120 litres of solution per hour, depending on the installation productivity.
The neutral anolyte appears to be a colourless clear liquid with the chlorine smell containing highly active chlorine compounds, free radicals of chlorine, oxygen, hydroxide, ozone adding antimicrobial and detergent features to the liquid.
The neutral anolyte destroys bacteria including tuberculosis pathogens, bacterial spores, viruses (including the human immunodeficiency virus, viruses of hepatites B, C), fungi.
The neutral anolyte will be stored in a glass, plastic or enameled container, tightly covered, in a dark cool place and not longer than 48 hours after the preparation. It will be only once applied.
The neutral anolyte with the necessary active chlorine concentration produced on the installation will be used undiluted.
2. APPLICATION OF THE NEUTRAL ANOLYTE SOLUTIONS IN HAIRDRESSER SHOPS
The neutral anolyte will be used for wet disinfecting of the rooms prior to start of the work or after its cessation, as well as for an ongoing cleaning operations. During the wet disinfecting of the rooms (floor, walls), the furniture, sanitary-technological equipment will be wiped with rags wetted with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte.
After the cleaning operation, the wiping material (rags) will be immersed for 60 minutes in a container with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte and then the wiping material will be rinsed in water and dried up.
Only the instruments and plastic items which can cause damage to the skin will be treated with the neutral anolyte. After they have been used they will be immersed for 90 minutes in 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte. During disinfecting, the container will be tightly covered with a cover. After the disinfecting, the items will be washed with flowing water until the chlorine smell disappears.
Combs will be disinfected twice by means of wiping them with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte with a 15-minute interval, and then washed with flowing water.
The pedicure feet basins will be disinfected twice after each customer by means of wiping them with rags wetted with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte, then they will be thoroughly washed using hot water and brush.
The oilcloth case of the pillow put under the leg during pedicure will be disinfected by means of twice wiping it with a rag wetted with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte, and subsequently washing it with water.
Containers with the neutral anolyte solution placed in working areas must have labels indicating the name of the preparation and the dates of its preparation.
3. DISINFECTING OF VARIOUS ITEMS IN PUBLIC BATHS AND SAUNAS
Every day after the public bath closure, all its rooms will be thoroughly cleaned. In the halls, waiting rooms, cloakrooms, dirty linen storage rooms, the wet disinfecting will be done with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte. During the disinfecting, sofas and benches in cloakrooms and sweating-rooms will be disinfected by means of twice wiping them with rags wetted in 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte, with a 15-minute interval. The wiping material will be immersed for 1 hour in 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte and then rinsed in flowing water and dried up.
The lavatory rooms will be disinfected at least twice a day with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte. The sanitary-technical equipment established there will be twice wiped with rags wetted with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte.
The tubs will be wiped with a 15-minute interval twice after each customer with rags abundantly wetted with the above disinfecting solution, then washed with detergents and rinsed with hot water.
Plastic and enameled basins will be wiped with 15-minute intervals twice after use with rags wetted with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte and then in one hour washed with flowing water.
The pool basin, after its emptying, will be wiped (or sprayed) twice with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte. In 60 minutes, the disinfecting solution will be washed off. The pool's surface will be thoroughly cleaned with brushes and detergents and then rinsed with hot water from a hose.
Once a week a general cleaning will be performed when the wall surfaces in all the rooms, as well as benches in cloak rooms, washing rooms and sweating rooms will be wiped (or sprayed) twice with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte. In 1 hour, the disinfecting solution will be washed off using a hose.
4. DISINFECTING OF VARIOUS ITEMS IN HOTELS
After departure from rooms, cleaning of the toilets will be performed with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte, as well as a mandatory disinfecting of the sanitary-technical equipment. Wash-stand, tub (a shower tray), bidet, lavatory pan will be wiped with a 15-minute interval twice with rags wetted with disinfecting solution of the neutral anolyte. In 1 hour, the disinfecting solution will be washed off with flowing water. The wiping rags will undergo disinfecting in 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte during 60 minutes, then washed and dried up.
In communal shower rooms, during a daily cleaning, the 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte will be used to disinfect benches, tiled walls for a 2 metres height, and floors. Rubber rugs will be wiped with a 15-minute interval twice with the disinfecting solution, and in one hour the disinfecting solution will be washed off.
In the clean linen storage rooms, the wetted disinfecting with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte will be performed once a week. The disinfecting solution will also be used for treatment of the pallets for clean linen storage.
In the dirty linen storage rooms, the wetted disinfecting with 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte will be performed after each session of the sorting the linen out and sending it to the laundry. After the cleaning, the wiping rags will be disinfected in 0.03% solution of the neutral anolyte during 1 hour.
5. SAFETY MEASURES AND RENDERING FIRST MEDICAL AID
Operations with the neutral anolyte will be carried out wearing masks, overalls, aprons, rubber gloves. After work, hands will be washed with soap.
In case of contact of the neutral anolyte solution with the skin or eyes, the affected area will be washed with large quantities of running water. The skin will be oiled with emollient creme. Should the condition become worse, seek medical attention.
The Methodological Recommendations have been composed by the Chief Epidemiologist of the GMU V.P. Lebedeva, specialists of the Moscow Municipal Centre of the State Sanitary-Epidemiological Inspection E.V. Riabova, Rent Enterprise G.A. Gvelessiani, on the basis of the "Methodological Instructions for Application of Electrochemically Activated Solution of Sodium Chloride (the neutral anolyte) Produced on the Stel-10H-120-01 Installation for Disinfecting Purpose, Pre-Sterilization Cleaning, and Sterilization" approved by the State Committee of Sanitary-Epidemiological Inspection of the Russian Federation on 10 August 1993, # 01-19/49. |
