The invention relates to the use of agents, which contain at least one disinfection system based on selected organic peracids and combinations of peracids, in automatically functioning systems, in which fragile medical appliances, in particular, endoscopes, are cleaned and disinfected. According to the invention, the appliances are brought into contact with an aqueous disinfection agent solution after they have been treated and/or at the same time they are being treated with an aqueous cleaning solution. The invention also relates to cleaning and disinfection agents and methods which are all suited for carrying out this purpose.

Methods and agents for cleaning and disinfecting fragile medical appliances

The invention relates to the field of cleaning and disinfection of hard surfaces. The cleaning and disinfection of the surfaces is achieved by means of a deaning textile and an aqueous preparation, comprising disinfection agents and additives selected from a group comprising a quatemary ammonium compound of formula (II), polydialkyldiallylammonium salts and derivatives thereof and the copolymers of dialkyldiallylammonium salts with acrylamide, and/or acrylic acid, and/or vinyl acetate, and derivatives thereof. The invention further relates to an aqueous concentrate, an aqueous preparation produced therefrom and a method for the reduction of active ingredient losses in disinfection solutions when using said concentrate.
