Neutral pH multi-enzyme liquid concentrate ideal for instrument presoak, ultrasonic cleaning, laundry presoak, and evacuation system cleaner. Ideal for cleaning hard to remove proteinaceous (mucous & tissue) and lipid (fatty) materials from the surfaces of surgical/dental instruments, linen, water submersible equipment, or where mechanical scrubbing is impractical. a basin containing sterile water to soak. D. Saline must not be used, since the chloride ions can cause pitting and deterioration of the finish on the surface of the instruments. Standard of Practice II The cleaning of instruments should continue at the point of use post-procedure, B) Disinfecting (the protection for medical personnel from accidental contamination during cleaning) To avoid blood and other proteins from sticking to instruments surfaces, an enzymatic cleaner bath (soaking) should be used on all instruments. After soaking for a minimum of 10 minutes, rinse all instruments in running tap water. STEP 1: CLEANING. The first and most important step in instrument reprocessing is cleaning, as studies [Alfa, 1998] have shown that a dirty instrument cannot be effectively sterilized. This is because the soil shields bacteria and viruses from the sterilizing agent. Another study, testing the efficacy of presoaking compared to an ultrasonic on the cleanliness of endodontic files, found that presoaking did not provide any benefit over the use of an ultrasonic alone. 6 Whether personnel presoak instruments or place them directly into the ultrasonic cleaner, immersing the instruments before blood and other debris have the opportunity to dry improves the efficacy of the cleaning procedure. Ruhof Endozime. Endozime® is a foaming dual enzymatic cleaner that removes blood, protein, mucous, vomit and fecal matter. This formulation of Protease and Amylase enzymes with buffers and surfactants is perfect for all flexible and rigid scopes and instruments. Proteases are the most important type of. enzyme to look for when choosing an enzymatic detergent for medical use because. there is a high content of protein in most body fluids (including blood, tissue and. mucous) which cannot be easily removed with regular detergents/surfactants and water.

Chemical disinfection can be used when instruments will be damaged by heat. Some chemicals that may be considered include glutaraldehyde 2% for 20 minutes, hydrogen peroxide 6%–7.5% for 20–30 minutes, peracetic acid 0.2–0.35% for 5 minutes and ortho-phthalaldehyde (OPA) for 5–12 minutes.

Q: Alternatively, cooks can manually tenderize steaks by opting for a mechanical tool such as the marinade turbocharger, which pokes holes into meat fibers using numerous sharp needles. Pounding the meat with a kitchen mallet, or heavy skillet pan is another way to mechanically soften steak. Place the meat in a shallow dish, cover and place it in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours or overnight. You may also use baking soda to tenderize meat. Coat the steak with baking soda and put in the refrigerator, covered, for five to six hours. Wash the baking soda off completely before cooking the meat. Cooks can tenderize steak naturally by marinating the meat in natural acids or enzymes, which softens meat fibers. Yogurt is a dairy-based acidic food that also makes a great alternative meat tenderizer. Bromelain is the active natural enzyme contained in pineapple, and papaya contains an enzyme known as papain. Methods for tenderizing steak include using natural acidic liquids such as lemon juice and vinegar, pounding the meat with a mechanical tool, and scoring meat with a sharp knife. Meat can also be tenderized chemically by using marinades containing fruit enzymes. I do cook flank steak quite often, and usually marinate it for an hour or so in red wine, garlic, olive oil and whichever herbs I have on hand. I've never found the meat to be tough, and do like the flavour. Join the conversation! re: MMRuth mschow Jul 14, 2009 I think my BIL just used a generic brand meat tenderizer.

Preheat the broiler before cook... Full Answer > I've never bought it before. However, a few weeks ago, I had some of the most tender and delicious London broil that my BIL made: he claims his secret was the meat tenderizer. He had purchased two London broils. One of them he marinated in Ken's Italian dressing to which he added meat tenderizer. The other piece he added no tenderizer to, but a teriyaki type marinade. We all agreed that the piece with the tenderizer added was far more tender and flavorful. The other piece was much chewier; both pieces were bought at the same store, same day. A: The three main most common ways to tenderize a steak are pounding, marinating the meat and slow cooking. There are also several commercially available meat... Full Answer > However I assure you there is not a CUT of beef known as London Broil recognized by the North American Meat Processors Association. ---If you read the fine print on the label you may see that the piece of meat is from the Top Round, Flank, Shoulder, etc. Again London Broil is a method of cooking...Not a cut of beef.
