Immobilize Infectious Fluids with SaniSorb® Liquid Solidifiers

Self-Rupturing Liquid Solidifying Packs Minimize the Risk of Cross-Contamination of Infectious Waste to Medical Staff.

Infectious medical waste is not something to be taken lightly. In fact, healthcare workers, transporters and landfill personnel are told if they encounter a red bag, red sharps container, objects marked with the biohazard symbol, blood or blood-containing material, human or animal parts; or other material that appears to be medical waste, to treat it as if it is hazardous waste.

Handling objects that contain immobilized medical fluid waste such as kick buckets, sharps collectors, suction canisters or red bags presents hi-risk challenges that include accidental spillage, splashing and cross-contamination.

To ensure patient safety and the safety of workers, it is imperative to contain infectious fluids so they do not spill, splash or leak and many facilities are improving safety by simply solidifying their liquid medical waste.

Liquid solidifiers are filled with a super absorbent polymer powder that turns liquid medical waste into a gel-like substance whereas the use of powder or granule liquid solidifiers can cause an aerosol putting folks at risk to airborne infection.

Self-Bursting SaniSorb_® Liquid Solidifying Packets Help Eliminate Spills, Splashes & Cross-Contamination.

SaniSorb® is the first medical liquid solidifier with a pre-measured self-bursting technology and are used in many healthcare facilities all over the world to rapidly contain infectious waste fluids. SaniSorb® is packaged in pre-measured and dissolvable packets that are simply dropped into suction canisters, sharps conatiners, red bags, kick buckets, or other bio-fluid waste containers to quickly immobilize fluids.

Self-activating technology reduces particulates, bacterial exposure and will dissolve within minutes on contact. Ready-to-use SaniSorb® 15 gram packets eliminate shaker bottles and tear open pouches that could spill contents when pouring or opening.

SaniSorb® will continue to solidify for up to 48 hours as new fluid is introduced and is compatible for use with all size systems including negative pressure wound care systems, small suction canisters, and large canister units. It can be added to the suction canister prior to the start of a procedure and does not increase the volume of suction canister contents, allowing for accurate reading and measurement.

This self-bursting technology provides an effective solution for adhering to requirements of the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Hazardous Materials Regulation DOT CFR49 regarding absorbent material use for stored and transported medical waste and complies with U.S.DOT requirements for “red bag” disposal, and OSHA bloodborne pathogens standard for employee exposure*
