This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: LAB 18 - USING DISINFECTANTS, ANTISEPTICS AND SANITIZERS TO CONTROL MICROORGANISMS, sterilization definition The process of destroying all living organisms and viruses. A sterile object is one free of all life forms, including bacterial endospores, as well as viruses., Using disinfectants, antiseptics, and sanitizers to control microorganisms common groups Heavy metals: Mercury compounds, silver nitrate, copper sulfate, and selinium., endospore producers examples Bacillus species, They may denature microbial enzymes and other proteins, usually by disrupting the hydrogen and disulfide bonds that give the protein its three-dimensional functional shape. result Blocks metabolism., Using disinfectants, antiseptics, and sanitizers to control microorganisms common groups Iodine and iodophores: Wescodyne®, Ioprep®, Ioclide®, Betadine®, and Isodine®., Using disinfectants, antiseptics, and sanitizers to control microorganisms factors which influence the antimicrobial action of disinfectants, antiseptics, and sanitizers The nature of the material bearing the microorganisms., Using disinfectants, antiseptics, and sanitizers to control microorganisms factors which influence the antimicrobial action of disinfectants, antiseptics, and sanitizers The number of microorganisms present., in vivo test description One done under the actual conditions of normal use., Using disinfectants, antiseptics, and sanitizers to control microorganisms definitions cidal, disinfection definition The elimination of microorganisms from inanimate objects or surfaces., Using disinfectants, antiseptics, and sanitizers to control microorganisms evaluation of disinfectants, antiseptics, and sanitizers in vitro test, Using disinfectants, antiseptics, and sanitizers to control microorganisms common groups Phenol and phenol derivatives: Orthophenylphenol (Lysol®, O-syl®, Staphene®), hexachlorophene (PhisoHex®), chlorhexidine (Hibiclens® and Hibitane®), and triclosan., endospore producers examples Clostridium species, One done under artificial, controlled laboratory conditions. use Has some value in comparing the strength of disinfectants under standard conditions., Using disinfectants, antiseptics, and sanitizers to control microorganisms common groups Aldehydes: Formalin; alkaline glutaraldehyde (Cidex®); acid glutaraldehyde (Sonacide®); glutaraldehyde phenate (Sporocidin®)., The concentration of the chemical agent. effect May be too dilute or too concentrated for optimum effectiveness., acid-fast bacteria examples Mycobacterium species, Using disinfectants, antiseptics, and sanitizers to control microorganisms common groups Ethylene oxide gas, some viruses examples hepatitis viruses, Using disinfectants, antiseptics, and sanitizers to control microorganisms common groups Soaps and detergents: Benzalkonium chloride, zephiran, diaprene, roccal, ceepryn, and phemerol.
