Our facility uses the concentrate AHP and dilutes it into the Kimberly-Clarke Wet Task system; I’ve noticed a black growth in the buckets. What is causing this?
All disinfectants have a shelf life once the product has been diluted. Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide once diluted into a closed container has a shelf life of 30 days. Over time the concentration of the active in AHP (Hydrogen Peroxide) will decrease and the further you get from the expiry date, the lower the concentration of Hydrogen Peroxide which can result in the growth of mold. For this reason, it is very important that all bottles and containers of disinfectants are dated with the expiry date. This ensures you are not using expired product and that that the efficacy you need in your facility will be met.
