Is anyone using or know of a chlorine containing product with TGA approval for use in C.difficile environmental disinfection.
A study out of Canada has found that 5000mg/L available chlorine had the most consistent sporicidal effect compared with solutions of 1000mg/L and 3000mg/L. I am aware that the AICA position paper recommends a solution of 1000ppm of available chlorine.Many thanks

Hi Wendy,
I have spoken to the technical support man from this company and the product has not been TGA approved for C. diff.
I was also investigating this product.
Thanks
