Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide, often shortened to AHP, blends common ingredients with hydrogen peroxide to raise its germ killing strength. That lets the solution reach sterilization and high level disinfection within a practical contact time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow do you use PREempt CS20?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou clean the instrument first, then soak it in undiluted PREempt CS20 for 20 minutes.

The oxidizing action of hydrogen peroxide also helps stop any bioburden left after cleaning from sticking to surfaces. Because the formula has no aldehydes, no volatile organic compounds and no need for special ventilation, you avoid some of the harsher chemicals found in other reprocessing products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe active ingredient breaks down into water and oxygen, which lowers the environmental impact.
