MetriCide 28 Overview

MetriCide 28 Day Sterilizing & Disinfecting Solution is designed for long life and is reusable for up to twenty-eight days after activation. This sterilizing and disinfecting solution is recommended for immiscible and heat-sensitive equipment and instruments. It contains a surfactant, also called a surface-active agent, that reduces the surface tension to increase the spreading and wetting of the solution. This product does not require dilution, making it convenient and measurement-free. With a wide range of indications (which can be found below), this one-gallon disinfecting and sterilizing solution make cleaning quick, easy, and effective. Pair with NITRI ONE Nitrile 4mil Exam Gloves for safe, hazard-free cleaning.
