Schematic of <strong>Bioquell</strong> HPV <strong>co</strong>ncentration/time graph<br />
1. HPV introduced – initial rapid increase in HPV <strong>co</strong>ncentration<br />
2. HPV saturation/“dew point” achieved – onset of rapid bio-de<strong>co</strong>ntamination<br />
3. HPV gassing plateau – sustained micro-<strong>co</strong>ndensation effecting bio-deactivation<br />
4. Dwell period (<strong>co</strong>ntact time)<br />
5. Aeration – removal of HPV from the atmosphere typically by catalytic<br />
<strong>co</strong>nversion to water vapour and oxygen, leaving no residues<br />
Schematic of dew point and <strong>Bioquell</strong> k<strong>il</strong>l dynamics<br />
1. Injection of HPV into the enclosure starts (t=0)<br />
2. Only slight decline in biological indicator population prior to dew point<br />
3. Rapid micro-biological k<strong>il</strong>l occurs immediately after saturation/“dew point” is achieved –<br />
process optimised to achieve reliable 6-log sporicidal reduction on all exposed surfaces<br />
4. Onset of micro-<strong>co</strong>ndensation <strong>co</strong>rrelates with rapid bio-deactivation<br />
5. Bio-deactivation achieved via micro-<strong>co</strong>ndensation (invisible layer) of hydrogen<br />
peroxide (2-6µm)<br />

Key benefits of HPV<br />
• Excellent material <strong>co</strong>mpatib<strong>il</strong>ity<br />
including sensitive electronics<br />
• Environmentally friendly –<br />
“residue-free” (breaks down to<br />
water vapour and oxygen)<br />
• Effective against a wide range<br />
of micro-organisms<br />
• High level disinfection achieved<br />
(6-log sporicidal reduction)<br />
• Low temperature<br />
bio-de<strong>co</strong>ntamination process<br />
HPV applications<br />
• GMP cleanrooms<br />
• Aseptic processing<br />
• Biologics<br />
• Biomedical<br />
• Biosafety/security<br />
Key features and benefits of the <strong>Bioquell</strong> Z-2<br />
FEATURES<br />
Unique <strong>Bioquell</strong> parametric <strong>co</strong>ntrol algorithm<br />
Complete system in<strong>co</strong>rporating gas distribution<br />
and catalytic aeration<br />
Fast, high capacity HPV vaporiser<br />
Fully <strong>co</strong>mpliant with GMP requirements<br />
Mob<strong>il</strong>e system<br />
BENEFITS<br />
Fast, efficient cycles with no need for gas cycle<br />
development<br />
Single system HPV for the <strong>co</strong>mplete<br />
bio-de<strong>co</strong>ntamination process<br />
Quick bio-de<strong>co</strong>ntamination of volumes up to 250m 3 , using parametric<br />
<strong>co</strong>ntrol (larger areas can be validated using timed cycles)<br />
Able to be used in regulated areas (if used with<br />
timed HPV cycles)<br />
Can be eas<strong>il</strong>y moved to areas requiring<br />
bio-de<strong>co</strong>ntamination
