Neodisher N Laboratory Detergent – 5L

The Neodisher N Laboratory Detergent – 5L is a phosphoric acid-based, liquid concentrate designed as an acidic neutralising agent and detergent for the automated reprocessing of surgical instruments, anaesthesia utensils, and laboratory glassware in washer-disinfectors. Ideal for hospitals, laboratories, and industries requiring high analytical purity, such as water and phosphate analysis, this surfactant-free product neutralises alkaline residues from prior cleaning steps and removes acid-soluble contaminants like lime, urine scale, and discolorations. Certified to conform with the European Directive 93/42/EC for medical devices, Neodisher N ensures excellent material compatibility and residue-free rinsing, making it suitable for sensitive applications. Its concentrated formula and compatibility with automated systems, including Miele washer-disinfectors, provide a cost-effective and reliable solution for professional hygiene needs.

Key Features

• Acidic Neutralisation: Effectively neutralises carried-over alkaline residues from cleaners like Neodisher FA or LaboClean FLA, ensuring residue-free reprocessing for surgical instruments and laboratory glassware.

• Acid-Soluble Contaminant Removal: Removes lime, urine scale, discolorations, and other acid-soluble residues, ideal for laboratories where surfactant or nitrogen residues could interfere with sensitive analyses.

• Surfactant-Free Formula: Free of surfactants, phosphates, and nitrogen compounds, preventing analytical interference and ensuring compliance with stringent laboratory requirements.

• Material Compatibility: Gentle on materials such as glass, ceramics, stainless steel, rubber, and acid-resistant plastics, prolonging the lifespan of instruments and glassware.

• Concentrated Efficiency: Low use concentration (0.1–0.4% v/v, or 1–4 ml/L) delivers cost-effective performance, with a 5L canister yielding up to 5000 liters of working solution for neutralisation or acidic cleaning.

• Automated Application: Seamlessly integrates with washer-disinfectors via dosing pumps, ensuring precise and consistent neutralisation or cleaning in automated cycles.

• Residue-Free Rinsing: Easily rinsed off, with deionised water recommended in the final rinse to prevent water stains, supporting analytical purity in laboratory settings.

• Eco-Conscious Design: Minimises environmental impact through its surfactant-free composition and efficient dosing, aligning with sustainable practices.

• Versatile Applications: Suitable for neutralising alkaline residues in medical utensil reprocessing, acidic pre-cleaning of laboratory glassware, and descaling washer-disinfectors, particularly in water and phosphate analysis labs.

• Certified Compliance: Conforms to the European Directive 93/42/EC, Annex I, for medical devices, ensuring safety and reliability for professional reprocessing applications.

Applications

• Hospitals and Surgical Centres: Neutralises alkaline residues during reprocessing of surgical instruments, anaesthesia utensils, and medical containers, ensuring hygiene and infection control compliance.

• Laboratories: Performs acidic pre-cleaning or cleaning of laboratory glassware for water, phosphate, and environmental analysis, preventing contamination in sensitive analytical examinations.

• Phosphate Industry: Ideal for reprocessing glassware where phosphate residues could adulterate results, ensuring analytical accuracy.

• Veterinary and Research Facilities: Cleans animal cages and laboratory glassware, removing acid-soluble residues like lime and urine scale.

• Dental Practices: Supports reprocessing of dental instruments, ensuring residue-free results in automated systems.

• Volume: 5 liters (plastic canister with tamper-evident screw cap).

• Composition: Based on phosphoric acid; free of surfactants, phosphates, and nitrogen compounds.

• pH Value: Acidic (pH <7 at recommended use concentrations).

• Use Concentration:

  • Neutralisation: 0.1–0.2% v/v (1–2 ml/L).

  • Acidic pre-cleaning/cleaning: 0.2–0.4% v/v (2–4 ml/L) at 40–60°C.

• Temperature Range: Effective for acidic pre-cleaning at 40–60°C; suitable for neutralisation at standard rinse temperatures.

• Applications: Surgical instruments, anaesthesia utensils, containers, surgical shoes, baby bottles, laboratory glassware, animal cages.

• Compatibility: Compatible with all standard washer-disinfectors, including Miele machines.
