Remove Endotoxin Residue

Q: Does Alconox detergent remove endotoxin?

Undissolved Washer Detergent Sign of Bad Seal?

Q: We are having issues with undissolved detergent that is persisting.  We make sure the compartment is dry before use.  Can we try a liquid?

A: It sounds like you have a cup in door washer for the powdered detergent.  The seals there are not designed to hold a liquid – of course some seals are better than others, but they are more for powders and gels (think home dishwasher gel at home).

Specific Formulations for Cold Water Cleaning?

Q: I’m looking for detergents similar to Liquinox and Citranox, that are specially formulated for cold water cleaning conditions. Can you recommend analogs to the two?

A: For most residues, the detergency of an aqueous detergent is enhanced and hastened by heat. 

Bleach and Detojet?

Q: We have a washer that use both Detojet and a bleach cycle.   We would like to optimize.  Can we combine?  We have read the “Bleach with Detergents for Disinfection?” article. A: A key component of Detojet® Low Foaming Liquid Detergent is indeed sodium hypochlorite (per the SDS 2.5-10%).
