The Dr. Schumacher Thermoshield Basix Laboratory Detergent – 5L is a highly alkaline, surfactant-free liquid cleaner designed for the chemo-thermal reprocessing of surgical instruments, medical devices, and laboratory glassware in washer-disinfectors. Engineered for professional use in hospitals, dental practices, laboratories, and pharmaceutical settings, this detergent delivers exceptional cleaning performance against blood and protein-based contaminants due to its high alkalinity (pH >10 at recommended use concentrations). Certified to ISO 9001:2015 and EN ISO 13485 standards, Thermoshield Basix incorporates corrosion inhibitors for excellent material compatibility, protecting both instruments and machines. Its concentrated formula and compatibility with Miele machines make it a reliable and cost-effective choice for automated cleaning processes.
