The effect of perasafe and sodium dicholoroisocyanurate (NaDCC) against spores of Clostridium difficile and Bacillus atrophaeus on stainless steel and poylvinylchloride surfaces.

This paper describes a comparison of the efficacy of perasafe (a peroxygen generating peracetyl ions) and NaDCC (1000 ppm available chlorine) against spores of Clostridium difficile and Bacillus atrophaeus on stainless steel and poylvinylchloride surfaces using a contact time of 2, 5 and 10 mins.
