So how do they sanitise? The fluid used is made up of specialist quaternary ammonium compounds, or “quats”. These are ammonium compounds, with four organic groups linked to a nitrogen atom. Different quats have different kill ranges; Protex utilises a number of quats to guarantee a high kill rate. Protex Wipes work by forming a monolayer over a surface, once the monolayer has been formed the bactericidal action kicks in with the desteuction of bacteria/virus/fungal cell membranes and the denaturing of proteins. The growth of new bacterial spores is also inhibited.
