    State:

    I have read with interest the AICA position statement regarding hyper
    virulent C. difficile in healthcare facilities and note the cleaning
    recommendation is 1000ppm hypochlorite.

    I have recently been shown hydrogen peroxide disinfection technology
    that makes the claim of being effective against NAP1/027 C. difficile
    spores. I would be interested to know what others think about this
    technology for use in the healthcare environment and in particular in
    response to C. difficile.

    Kind Regards,
