Disinfectants are chemical substances that are applied to non-living objects and surfaces of the floor to destroy

microorganisms. The essential use of disinfectants is part of a strategy to prevent infectious diseases. Here surfaces are
considered noncritical items and they contact intact skin. The use of noncritical items or contact with noncritical surfaces
carries little risk of causing an infection in humans. Surface should be clean in hospital, clinics and Ambulatory surgical
centers because there is higher possibility to spread the infection among patients and staff.
Clean t185he surfaces with disinfectant is the first and foremost step to prevent the infection in the hospital. Medical
device surfaces such as hemodialysis machines, gloves, stethoscopes, blood pressure cuffs, CT scan, MRI scanners
and X-ray machines can become contaminated with infectious agents and contribute to the spread of Infectious
diseases while examining the patient health. To prevent this, noncritical medical equipment surfaces should be
disinfected with an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) -registered low- or intermediate-level disinfectant. Examples
of some of clinical contact surfaces include light handles, switches, reusable containers of dental materials, countertops,
and telephone handles.
