Abstract
Objective To compare the sterilizing effects of slightly acidic electrolyzed water(SlAEW) and electrolyzed oxidizing water(EOW).Methods In August 2010,30 workbenches were selected randomly in Microbiology Department and outpatient hall in our hospital.Each workbench was divided into three areas for control and disinfection with SlAEW and EOW.The samples were picked before and after disinfection.The bacteria killing rates were compared.Results The average bacteria killing rate of SlAEW was 99.02%,versus 93.76% of EOW.There was no significant difference between them.Conclusion The sterilizing effect of SlAEW is equivalent to that of EOW.But the former is friendlier to human and environment.It is a kind of ideal disinfectant for the medical system.
