Chloramine B - what is it?

Chloramine B ( Latin name Chloraminum B, sodium N-chlorobenzenesulfamide, trihydrate) is one of the most popular antiseptic disinfectants. Chem. formula: C6H5ClNNaO2S. The disinfectant looks like a powder with white crystalline granules, soluble in water or C₂H₅OH. It has a typical chlorine smell. The bactericidal property of the solution occurs due to the release of active chlorine, which reacts with oxygen. The concentration of chlorine is 24-27 percent.

What effect?

It differs from a mixture of hypochlorite, chloride and calcium hydroxide (chlorine lime) in that it does not disturb the surface and gently acts on the epithelium. The processing of the composition is constantly addressed medical institutions, incl. children's, used in everyday life.

Chloramine B: instructions for use

An antiseptic is used to sterilize the surface of furniture (couches, etc.) and even to wipe eggs in incubators. Serves for disinfection of objects during general and planned cleaning. For the most part chlorinate medical institutions, procedural, children's organizations (schools, kindergartens), catering establishments and other places where it is necessary to kill pathogenic microbes. The solution is used to wipe medical equipment and instruments (vessels, ducks, thermometers), clothes, bed sheets, crockery, etc.

Due to the risk of corrosion, the product should not be used to sterilize metal instruments. The combination of chlorine and oxygen will harm the surface, corrode it.

Should not get into eyes or mucous membranes. After processing dishes and clothes, rinse additionally in ordinary water from the tap. It is advisable to wear respiratory masks for respiratory protection, rubber gloves.

Depending on the subject of disinfection, choose different intensity composition. In case of infections intestinal group 1-3% composition is used. Viruses, influenza, tuberculosis, hepatitis, fungal diseases— similarly. 0.5-1% once treat non-metallic tools. In gynecology, 0.25–0.5% is used.

How to dilute chloramine for disinfection?

Recipe: to dissolve faster, you must use warm tap water. Dissolve in enameled or glassware. If diluted according to the instruction table, it does not provoke the appearance of dangerous reactions on the skin and mucous membranes.

Dose: the powder is diluted in a ratio of 1 kg: 10 liters. The norms for the time of disinfection after applying the drug differ depending on the type of infection, concentration, method.

Processing technology: lasts from half an hour to five hours.

Preparation: the composition, diluted in a ratio of 50 grams per 5 liters of liquid, is used to sterilize floors and walls. To disinfect tools, clothes and other items - leave in the composition for one hour.

Shelf life and storage of Chloramine solution

It is forbidden to store the prepared working disinfectant solution for more than 14 days. It should be in a sealed container, in a dark, not damp, cool place. Indoor storage - strictly away from flammable media.

1% - for processing floors, surfaces, vessels, toilet bowls, bathtubs, etc.

3% - 5% - for disinfection of disposable systems and syringes with their subsequent destruction, debris, purulent dressing material.



Preparation of working solutions of chloramine (0.5%, 1%, 3%, 5%)

Prepare working solutions before use from dry chloramine, diluting the powder with water in the required concentrations. Water is added to the powder to the desired volume (up to 1 l, 1.5 l, etc.)

Working solutions can be used within 15 days, with proper storage(dark, dry, cool and well-ventilated area).

Preparation of working solutions of chloramine

Chloramine is chemical, which has antiseptic, spermatocidal and deodorizing properties. It is used to disinfect any non-sterile surfaces.

Indications for use

The drug is used as a disinfectant for the treatment of non-metallic tools and surfaces. AT medical practice suitable for hand treatment and wound washing.

Compound

The powder consists of the sodium salt of benzenesulfonic acid chloramide.

Medicinal properties

Chloramine B technical has strong antimicrobial and oxidizing properties. When the product comes into contact with a damp surface, it begins to slowly and gradually release chlorine. The drug oxidizes and chlorinates the protoplasm of cells harmful bacteria. Staphylococcus dies within three minutes when using a 1% solution. Anthrax dies within four hours from exposure to a 5% solution.

The higher the temperature of the solution, the stronger its bactericidal activity. If necessary, disinfect hairline in veterinary medicine, a 10% solution is used. In small concentrations, the drug can be used as a disinfectant for disinfection. open wounds(up to 0.5%), and in high concentrations (up to 5%) the drug is used to disinfect care items for patients with typhus, cholera or diphtheria.

    Solution preparation

    For the preparation of solutions of chloramine are required the following quantities drug:

    Precautions when working with chloramine

    When working with chloramine and especially its activated solutions, it is necessary to protect the respiratory organs with a RU-60 respirator. Work is done in a bathrobe, rubber gloves, apron. Guidelines developed at the All-Union Research Institute of Disinfection and Sterilization. The instructions for the use of chloramine for disinfection purposes dated December 24, 1947, from the moment these guidelines were approved, should be considered invalid.

    General information

    Chloramines include a number of organic compounds having a common chemical formula RSO 2 NH 2 (R - denotes a radical), in which one or both of the hydrogen atoms located at nitrogen, replaced by chlorine. There are chloramine B, if the starting product is benzene, and chloramine T, if toluene is used for this.

    The domestic chloramine used for disinfection purposes is called chloramine B, belongs to the group of monochloramines and has the formula: C 6 H 5 SO 2 N(Na)C1*3H 2 . He is sodium salt benzene sulfonic acid chloride, has the appearance of a white fine crystalline powder. It usually contains 26% active chlorine, keeping this amount of chlorine for a long time if stored properly.

    Chloramine B is highly soluble in water. room temperature. Its solutions do not spoil or discolor fabrics.

    Chloramine has a high activity against gram-negative and gram-positive microorganisms, starting from 0.2%. Since active chlorine binds with organic substances, the concentration of solutions in practical conditions increase to 0.5-1-2-3-5%. Hot solutions of chloramine have a higher disinfecting effect.

    The bactericidal and virucidal properties of chloramine solutions are increased by adding ammonium compounds (ammonia, ammonium sulphate or chloride) to them, acting as an activator. Activated chloramine solutions quickly lose active chlorine, so they are used immediately after preparation.

    Chloramine is stored in a dark glass container with a well-fitting cork or, even better, with a ground cork, in a wooden container or in a container made of tin, coated on the inside with asphalt varnish, and also in polyethylene bags. When storing chloramine, do not allow direct exposure to light and moisture.

    Chloramine and the solutions prepared from it are checked from time to time for the content of active chlorine in them; this establishes the loss of active chlorine and the correct preparation and storage of solutions.
