BIOCOTE will be presenting an update on the latest environmental and laboratory-based research surrounding silver antimicrobial technology within the healthcare environment. The link between environmental contamination and HAIs is a hot topic among infection control professionals, with acceptance that equipment and furniture can be both reservoirs and transmitters of bacteria.
Biocote silver ion technology reduces levels of bacteria on surfaces by up to 99.9% over a 24 hour period reducing their risk of being the cause of cross contamination. Biocote protected products complement cleaning practices, helping to create cleaner, safer and more hygienic environments. The extensive product portfolio ranges from case note folders to paint and cubicle curtains.
