Formaldehyde is a naturally occurring organic compound and is considered as simplest of the aldehydes. It is a common disinfectant agent in dialyzer membrane. The systematic name is methanal and is used as disinfectant and sterilant in both its liquid and gaseous state. Formalin is a water based solution of formaldehyde and contains 37% formaldehyde by weight. It inactivates microorganisms by alkylating the amino and sulfhydryl groups of proteins. Formaldehyde 37% is widely preferred in health care to sterilize surgical instruments such as dialysis membrane, prepare viral vaccines, as an embalming agent, and to preserve anatomic specimens. At room temperature, a 4% concentration with an exposure of at least 24 hours is necessary to disinfect disposable hemodialyzers. Aqueous formaldehyde solutions, having concentrations in the range of 1%–2%, have been used to disinfect the internal fluid pathways of dialysis machines. It is very necessary to ensure that the dialysis patients are given proper clean environment free from any infectants. Hence, to abate the potential health hazard to patients, the dialysis equipment must be thoroughly rinsed and tested for residual formaldehyde before use.
Surgical House offers 37% in 50kg concentration formaldehyde solution. A 37% concentration solution of Formaldehyde is a colorless one having a pungent smell. The physical state is liquid and is felicitous for industrial usage. We offer drum as a packaging type ensuring the safe delivery of the product without creating any mishap.
