Room Bio-Decontamination Service (RBDS)Room Bio Decontamination Service

 
Dealing with contaminated rooms has always been difficult - safety and efficacy seemed to present conflicting demands when considering decontamination. BIOQUELL's unique hydrogen peroxide Room Bio-Decontamination Service (RBDS) resolves these demands. RBDS is a residue free, infinately scaleable service offering excellent material compatibility, including sensitive electronic equipment and rapid effective bio-decontamination for any size area from a single side room to a complete facility. RBDS can be deployed to suit any client requirements including emergency, scheduled, "implant" or standby.

Key Benefits:

The key benefits of RBDS are:
  • Rapid, therefore minimal downtime
  • Infinately scalable - modular system allows units to be "daisy-chained" together, meaning there is no limit to the volume BIOQUELL can decontaminate in a single cycle
  • High level verification using biological indicators - 6-log Geobacillus stearothermophilus spores which are the same challenge used to validate steam sterilisers
  • Proven efficacy
  • Excellent material compatibility
  • No cost of having to buy, maintain and store expensive, high tech equipment
  • Specialist, highly trained engineers carry out the bio-decontamination service, keeping disruption to a minimum

As stated, RBDS has wide and proven efficacy against the folloing micro-organisms:

  • Nosocomial pathogens such as MRSA, Clostridium difficile, Acinetobacter sp., VRE and Klebsiella sp.
  • Spore forming bacteria such as Geobacillus stearothermophilus, B. anthracis and B. atropheus
  • Viruses such as Calicivirus, Adenovirus, Influenza, Coronavirus (e.g. SARS) and Parvovirus
  • Moulds and Fungi such as Penicillium, Alternaria, Candida and Aspergillus

Applications

RBDS can be deployed in any facility where decontamination is required. To date, over 10,000 rooms have been decontminated using this unique service. The main applications include:
