CIDEX OPA Gallons by Johnson & Johnson Nothing is better for expensive endoscopes and other medical devices than CIDEX OPA Solution (0.55% ortho-phthalaldehyde), the non-glutaraldehyde solution for disinfection of flexible endoscopes and other medical devices. In fact, CIDEX OPA Solution is one of the gentlest reprocessing options available, which means it can substantially reduce instrument damage and repair costs.
Whats more, CIDEX OPA Solution has been shown to be a better investment than glutaraldehyde or peracetic acid1,2 not only because of its speed and efficiency but also because of its environmental safety.
Combined, these factors explain why CIDEX OPA Solution makes both clinical and economic sense for facilities seeking a more cost-efficient option for instrument reprocessing.
