  • Title: Comparison of the activities and stabilities of alkaline glutaraldehyde sterilizing solutions.
    Author: Pepper RE.
    Journal: Infect Control; 1980; 1(2):90-2. PubMed ID: 6797981.
    Abstract:
    The sporicidal activities and shelf life stabilities of three alkaline glutaraldehyde-containing sterilizing solutions were evaluated. The time required to reduce a population of spores by one log is the D-value. The test methods employed were the D-value and survival rates. Sporicidin, a new preparation containing a phenolic buffer, was both more stable and more active against test spores than two other test agents, Cidex and Cidex-7.
