The thermometer can be sterilized by soaking in disinfectant

When measuring dogs All tools used when treating body temperature or wounds need to be disinfected to avoid causing discomfort to pets during use, which may lead to inflammation or other problems. The disinfection methods used by different tools are also different.

1. Chemical disinfection

1. Solution soaking:For example, the thermometers we commonly use can be disinfected by this method, and some metal tools and glass products can also be disinfected by this method. We can soak the tool in 0.1% chlorhexidine solution for about 30 minutes, or we can soak it in 0.1% chlorhexidine or 0.1% domiphene solution for about 10 minutes.

2. Cotton ball wiping: Usually 3%-5% iodine tincture and 70% alcohol solution are used to make iodine tincture cotton balls and Apply alcohol cotton balls to the disinfected area. However, alcohol is relatively irritating, so it is rarely used directly to disinfect the wound.

3. Gas fumigation: Use formalin-potassium permanganate to fumigate 1-2ml/m³ of fumigation. Pour malin into potassium permanganate at a ratio of 1:2. After pouring, seal the doors and windows for more than 6 hours. For lactic acid fumigation, pour 80% lactic acid 12ml/100m³ into a container and place it on a lit alcohol lamp. After the water has evaporated, extinguish the fire. Close the doors and windows for 30 minutes, then open the windows for ventilation.

For places that are not exposed to light, ultraviolet rays have no disinfection effect

Two. Physical disinfection

1. Boiling sterilization:< /strong>Place the items in a boiling sterilized container and add cold water to boil. Under normal air pressure, 100-degree boiling water can kill most bacteria in 10-15 minutes. It is best not to boil things for less than 15 minutes. In order to increase the temperature of the water, sodium bicarbonate can be added to the water to make it a 2% alkaline solution. The water temperature can be increased to 102-105 degrees Celsius, and the sterilization ability can also be enhanced.

2. Steam sterilization: You can use a steamer to steam things that need to be sterilized. If the temperature cannot reach 100 degrees Celsius, methods compatible with boiling and sterilization can be used to reduce the temperature. Sterilization time starts from boiling water for 1-2 hours.

3. High-pressure steam sterilization: Using a drum and water vapor to kill bacteria under high temperature and high pressure is the most effective sterilization method at the moment. Bacterial method. However, relevant equipment is required.

4. Fire sterilization:This method is generally used in emergency situations.

5. Ultraviolet irradiation: It is widely used to disinfect rooms, but its sterilization ability is limited, so it is not suitable for irradiation. To the seat is not sterilizing efficiency.
