The invention relates to highly effective disinfecting or sterilising cloths with chlorine dioxide as the main active ingredient. For this, the chlorine dioxide is only generated shortly before use by bringing a cloth impregnated with a chlorite or chlorate salt in contact with a clearly defined amount of a suitable activation agent that is fluid or dissolved or admixed in a fluid, and prepackaged as a single dose, for the generation of chlorine dioxide. In a preferred embodiment, the impregnated cloth and the activation fluid are packaged in a common packaging unit and the activation occurs by breaking through a barrier separating the cloth or the cloths and the activation fluid. In a further preferred embodiment, the packaging is a moulded part having two packaging spaces separated from one another by removable barriers, which can be converted into a moulded part with only one chamber via simple pressure in one direction. The activation fluid or the disinfecting cloth can contain further substances, such as the pH-value-controlling substances, surfactants, guanidine derivatives, aldehydes, phenoxyethanols, phosphate esters, alcohols, sulfoxides, etc. Preferably, the disinfecting cloth according to the invention is used for disinfecting and/or sterilising medical instruments and/or medical products and/or surfaces.

The present application discloses a ozonated water delivery system which includes at least one contacting device in communication with at least one ultrapure water source configured to provide ultrapure water, at least one ultrapure water conduit coupled to the ultrapure water source, at least one solution in communication with the contacting device and the ultrapure water source via the ultrapure water conduit, one or more gas sources containing at least one gas in communication with at least one of the ultrapure water source, the ultrapure water conduit, and the solution conduit, at least one mixed gas conduit in communication with the at gas source and the contacting device and configured to provide at least one mixed gas to the contacting device, and at least one ozonated water output conduit may be in communication with the contacting device.

The present invention achieves a decontamination effect with a proper amount of hydrogen peroxide mist supplied to a room to be decontaminated by further refining such hydrogen peroxide mist supplied to the room for dispersion/diffusion, and reducing the duration of operations such as aeration to increase efficiency of decontamination.

The decontamination system includes a mist generation means, a mist discharge port, and a mist dispersion/diffusion means. The mist generation means converts a decontamination liquid into a mist to generate a mist for decontamination. The mist discharge port is opened at an upper portion on an internal side wall surface of the room to discharge a such mist into the inside of the room. The mist dispersion/diffusion means generates sound flows by an ultrasound in the vertical direction from a plate surface of a vibration plate provided adjacent to a lower portion of the mist discharge port on the internal side wall surface of the room or adjacent to a lower portion on a side surface in a mist discharge direction. The mist is pressed by acoustic radiation pressure backward or laterally in intermittent operation or stronger/weaker operation of the system.

Disclosed is an optical window cleaning device, including: a cleaning brush; and a wiper arm. The wiper arm includes a first link, a torsion mechanism, a second link and a wiper arm drive system. A second end of the first link is hinged to a first end of the second link. The cleaning brush is hinged to a first end of the first link, a rotation trajectory of the cleaning brush and a rotation trajectory of a hinge joint between the second end of the first link and the first end of the second link are both located in a first plane. A rotation trajectory of the second link and the rotation trajectory of the hinge joint are located in the first plane. The torsion mechanism provides the first link and the second link with a force that rotates the first link relative to the second link.

A disposable cleaning unit is described herein including an inner receptacle and an outer receptacle.

A method for validating a method for sterilizing an item, making it possible to validate the sterility assurance level achieved with this sterilization method. The method includes carrying out a first step of contaminating a container receiving the item with more than 10.sup.5 living microorganism cells, then carrying out a first sterilization cycle with the chosen method, then opening the container in order to contaminate it again with more than 10.sup.5 living microorganism cells, then carrying out a second sterilization cycle with the same method, and finally checking the sterility of the container after the first sterilization cycle and after the second sterilization cycle. The method is applicable in particular for products and devices intended for health use.
