What Is Quaternary Disinfectant?
Quaternary ammonium compounds, or "quats" as they're called in the healthcare industry, are active ingredients used in detergents and chemical disinfectants to kill harmful pathogens like fungi, amoebas, mold, many types of microbes, and some strains of viruses.
When used properly, quats are ideal for infection-control in dentist and physician offices, waiting rooms and clinics, and they can be used on just about any hard, nonporous surface. These readily available solutions are also trusted sanitizing agents for surfaces that come into contact with food. Quaternary disinfectants are not effective at removing harmful bacterial endospores that can spread infection, however.
Quat-based products are a top disinfectant choice for most health facilities because every solution must be registered with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) to receive the quaternary label. Refer to the categorized lists of EPA-registered disinfectants to find cleaning products that serve your facilities' specific needs.
