Health Care.
Reducing the risk of infection, keeping patients, staff and the community healthier.
Constant battle.
The battle against infections in healthcare settings never stops. We are losing the fight against infection with more and more reports and studies detailing the increase in antimicrobial mutations against traditional methods such as alcohol.
Old procedures are increasingly ineffective; more and more facilities are refusing to use toxic chemicals around their patients and employees.
Microcyn® is the future of infection control we have so desperately needed.
Besides the detailed unmatched advantages of the actual product, our industry-leading and unique application technologies offer so much more:
Minimal training
Integrates easily into any cleaning process
Reduces human error
Delivers results up to 3x greater than traditional disinfecting equipment in way less time
Allows for more efficient use of resources
Cuts cost and leaving more time for other tasks
A significant reduction in pathogens in healthcare environments when using Microcyn® has been reported in a detailed study. The fact that Microcyn® is registered with the authority (16 FDAs and 20 CEs) and 100% natural puts it at the forefront of the next level of infection control.
Bacteria are becoming resistant to alcohol-based disinfectants.
Problem.
Healthcare centers are at risk of infectious diseases. Patient traffic and the handling of testing samples are source of pathogens.
A healthcare center is looking to identify high risk areas and to reinforce its hygiene and sanitation procedures.
Key areas are identified and tested by performing ATP Surface Test *, before and after applying Dermodacyn® Disinfecting Solution.
Critical areas.

Solution.
The Dermodacyn® Team evaluated the entire facility and came up with a comprehensive plan to tackle the problem. Every service point stocked a bottle of Dermodacyn® to deal with immediate on the spot contaminations. Critical areas are cleaned and disinfected twice daily.
The fumigation machines were implemented at regular intervals in all common areas, reception and office areas throughout the day to ensure all communal touch-points are as clean as possible and to minimize the risk of airborne pathogens.
Staff and patients remained in the area during fumigation, drastically simplifying the procedures by not having to vacate the premise during sanitation.
* ATP Surface Tests are conducted where the swabs were run through a device that measures ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate), the energy molecule found in all animal, plant, bacteria, yeast, and mold cells, making it a perfect indicator when trying to determine if a surface is clean or not.
When the device reads 100 or more, the surface could stand to be cleaned. When the device reads 300 or more, the surface is officially dirty and in need of a good cleaning.
