Instructions for use
gigasept® FF (new) is a concentrate and is diluted with cold water to the desired working concentration.
Application example:

Immerse endoscopes and instruments to be reprocessed in the gigasept® FF (new) solution. Ensure complete covering of the surfaces, also of hollow instruments, and allow them to soak in the solution. After disinfection, thoroughly rinse all instruments, using water of at least drinking water quality, or preferably sterile distilled water or fully deionised water, to completely remove any residues of the solution. Please follow the reprocessing recommendations of the instrument manufacturers.
Standing time:
A standing time of 14 days applies if the working solution is only used for the disinfection of previously cleaned instruments. National regulations may limit the timespan during which the solution can be used.
Apart from the manual treatment of endoscopes and instruments, gigasept® FF (new) is also suitable for semiautomated machines that operate by a cyclic process at room temperature.
