CHG Disinfecting Swab

The CHG Disinfecting Swab is a swab containing chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) as a disinfectant.
Its main features and functions include:
Broad-spectrum sterilisation: effectively kills a wide range of bacteria, fungi and viruses.
Long-lasting antimicrobial effect: it can maintain the antimicrobial effect for a longer period of time at the application site.
Convenient: can be used for disinfection and cleaning of skin, mucous membranes and other parts of the body.
CHG disinfectant swabs are commonly used in medical and hygiene fields to help prevent infections and cross-infections from occurring.

The sterilisation principle of CHG disinfectant swabs is mainly as follows:
Destruction of cell membrane: chlorhexidine gluconate can bind with bacterial cell membrane and change its permeability, leading to leakage of cell contents, thus playing a bactericidal role.
Interference with metabolism: it can interfere with the metabolic process of bacteria, inhibiting the growth and reproduction of bacteria.
Binding to proteins: CHG can also bind to bacterial proteins, affecting their normal functions and further exerting bactericidal effects

The scope of application of CHG disinfectant swabs usually includes the following areas:
Medical field: used for skin disinfection before surgery, wound cleaning, etc.
Health care: can be used for daily personal hygiene care, such as wiping the skin.
Public places: cleaning and disinfecting in some public places.
