Hi Margaret,

We have used these wipes in our hospital recently for environmental
disinfection following cleaning when we had a patient with C. difficile
infection who reported an allergy to bleach based products. Our
cleaning staff found the wipes quite wet and easy to use in that
respect, the odour from them however was quite acidic (like uncontained
vinegar). They reported a preference to return to the normal bleach
based cleaning agent when possible. We didn’t do anything to assess the
efficacy as such.

Happy to discuss off-line if you wanted to contact our unit next year.

Merry Christmas

Kind regards

Rachel
