    Objective To study the disinfection effectiveness and safety of 222 nm ultraviolet, and to provide scientific basis for its practical application. Methods The quantitative virus inactivation test, carrier quantitative germicidal test, cell safety of layered cell slices and disposable skin irritation test were used to evaluate the virucidal effect, germicidal effect and safety of 222 nm ultraviolet source. Results Under the condition of radiation dose of 15 mJ/cm2, the killing rate of 222 nm ultraviolet on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus on carriers was 99.52% and 99.97%, respectively, when the organic interfering substance was 0.3% BSA; and the killing rates of the above two types of bacteria were 85.05% and 99.49% respectively, when the organic interfering substance was 3% BSA. When the radiation dose was 30 mJ/cm2, the inactivation rate of 222 nm ultraviolet on H1N1 influenza A virus, enterovirus 71 and poliovirusⅠvaccine strains on the carriers was up to 99.9%. When irradiated with the same dose in the layered cell model, the survival rate of the upper and lower cells was about 70% and 80%, respectively. At a radiation dose of 479 mJ/cm2, no obvious irritation was observed when rabbits skin were irradiated with 222 nm ultraviolet for 48 h. Conclusion The 222 nm ultraviolet had good killing effect on bacterial propagules and viruses, and its penetration into the deep cells was limited without obvious skin irritation.

    Objective To study the influencing factors of intracranial infection in patients after neuronavigation-assisted puncture drainage for intracerebral hemorrhage, and to provide the prevention and control of postoperative infection. Methods The clinical data and laboratory etiological examination data of patients with intracranial infection after neuronavigation-assisted puncture drainage for spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage in a hospital were investigated retrospectively. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors of intracranial infection. Results A total of 145 patients undergoing hematoma puncture and drainage were enrolled in this study. Postoperatively, intracranial infection occurred in 36 cases, with an infection rate of 24.8%. Among these infected patients, 5 strains of pathogenic bacteria were identified in cerebrospinal fluid, including 4 Gram-positive strains and 1 Gram-negative strain. Multivariate analysis indicated that preoperative GCS score≤8, no preoperative administration of antibiotics, and drainage tube indwelling time≥3 d were independent risk factors for intracranial infection following neuronavigation-assisted hematoma puncture and drainage. Conclusion The incidence of intracranial infection in patients undergoing intracerebral hematoma drainage in this hospital is relatively high. Patients with preoperative coma, no antibiotics, and drainage tube indwelling time ≥3 d are at high risk for intracranial infections, and the perioperative management of such patients should be strengthened.

    Objective To investigate the in vitro antimicrobial activity of antimicrobial peptide RP557 and its mechanism, and to evaluate its safety. Methods The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of RP557 against various clinical isolates was determined using the microdilution broth method. The bactericidal mechanism of RP557 against Gram-negative bacteria was analyzed through time-kill assays, biofilm inhibition, outer and inner membrane disruption, and ion leakage detection. The safety of RP557 at the animal level was assessed through histopathological examination and hepatic and renal function tests. Results MIC values of RP557 were≤32 µg/mL against multidrug-resistant and hypervirulent Gram-negative and Gram-positive clinical isolates. Biofilm formation could be completely inhibited at 1×MIC. Treatment with 2×MIC induced a 1.5-fold increase in outer membrane disruption, 10-fold increase in inner membrane damage, and significant Na+/K+ leakage. No significant differences in hepatic/renal function indices or lung histopathology scores were observed in mice after 400 µg/mL aerosol exposure compared to controls. Conclusion RP557 induces bacterial death through a dual-membrane disruption mechanism. At certain exposure doses, it shows no toxic side effects, highlighting its potential as a novel bactericidal agent.

    Objective To evaluate the dynamic disinfection efficacy of a 222 nm ultraviolet (UV) sterilizer on high-frequency contact surfaces and airborne bacteria in a respiratory intensive care unit (RICU). Methods Seven isolated rooms within the RICU of a tertiary hospital in Zhejiang, China, were selected. Rooms were assigned to either a control group (Room 2, 4, 6) receiving routine cleaning and ventilation, or an intervention group (Room 1, 3, 5, 7) receiving additional disinfection using a 222 nm UV sterilizer. Environmental samples were collected continuously for 3 days, with air and surface samples taken every 2 hours from 8:00 to 16:00 daily, totaling 1 050 samples. Bacterial colony counts and detection rates of Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) were measured. Results The intervention group showed significantly lower mean colony counts on both surfaces and in air samples compared to the control group (P<0.05). Surface bacterial load was reduced from (161.63±464.17) cfu/cm2 to (54.64±220.59) cfu/cm2, while airborne bacterial load decreased from (215.14±303.88) cfu/m2 to (150.65±106.52) cfu/m2. The detection rates of AB and KP also decreased significantly in both surface and air samples. Conclusion The 222 nm ultraviolet sterilizer demonstrates significant disinfecting efficacy in the RICU environment. It effectively reduces microbial contamination on surfaces and in the air. Notably, it exhibits more stable and sustained efficacy for air disinfection. This device serves as a robust supplementary measure to routine disinfection protocols.

    Objective To evaluate the disinfection effect and mobility performance of an intelligent disinfection robot equipped with krypton chloride excimer photoelectric technology. Methods Laboratory disinfection tests and field applications were conducted to measure the ultraviolet irradiance of the equipment and its disinfection effect on Staphylococcus aureus contaminated stainless steel carriers. Mobility performance was assessed in a large sports venue. Results The intelligent disinfection robot consists of an excimer disinfection unit (rated power 100 W and 65 W, emitting 222 nm ultraviolet) and an autonomous robotic platform. Laboratory tests demonstrated a 99.99% average elimination rate of S. aureus on vertically placed stainless steel carriers (100 cm distance) after 10 min of irradiation. In field applications, the robot utilized LIDAR and navigation modules to achieve autonomous operation, patrolling, and obstacle avoidance. For areas≤10 m2, it automatically activated disinfection mode (30 min cycle) or standby based on human presence detection. For areas >10 m2, it performed autonomous path planning, multi-point disinfection, and auto-return functions at 0.1 m/s velocity, completing 60 m2 venue disinfection in approximately 25 min. Conclusion The intelligent disinfection robot exhibited excellent disinfection capability by using 222 nm ultraviolet radiation and demonstrated reliable autonomous navigation with static/dynamic obstacle recognition and avoidance capacities.

    Objective To explore the application value of sterilization parameter detection in the maintenance of pulsating vacuum pressure steam sterilizer. Methods The sterilization parameters were detected by the indicators and the temperature and pressure detector, and the indication function of these parameters in maintenance of the pulsating vacuum pressure steam sterilizer was observed and analyzed. Results Only one of the five pulsating vacuum pressure steam sterilizers passed the test, and four failed, including excessive balance time, maintenance time and temperature uniformity, as well as PCD and B-D test results. The balance time of one sterilizer was too long (147 s), the maintenance time was too short (65 s), and the monitoring results of type 6 PCD and B-D pack were unqualified. After several maintenance, the sterilization parameters were not up to standard. However, after the replacement of the inlet and exhaust solenoid valves, the sterilization parameters were significantly improved, the balance time was shortened (49 s), the maintenance time was extended (207 s), and the monitoring results of PCD and B-D packages were qualified. Conclusion The sterilization parameters can effectively determine the fault maintenance of the sterilizer, and can be used as the basis for judging the maintenance effect.

    Objective To observe the inactivation effect of commonly used chemical disinfectants on enterovirus 71 (EV-71), and provide reference for practical disinfection applications. Methods The virus inactivation test method was used to observe the effect of commonly used chemical disinfectants on inactivating EV-71. Results After being treated with 5 000 mg/L polyhexamethylene biguanide and 2 000 mg/L polyhexamethylguanidine hydrochloride for 10 min, the inactivation logarithmic values of EV-71 in suspension were 3.55 and 3.61, respectively. When treated with a chlorine-containing disinfectant with an available chlorine concentration of 200 mg/L for 1 min, EV-71 in suspension could be inactivated completely. When treated with 1 000 mg/L peracetic acid for 5 min and 10 g/L hydrogen peroxide for 10 min, the inactivation logarithmic values of EV-71 were all >4.0. Two kinds of quaternary ammonium salt disinfectants could not effectively inactivate EV-71 at the experimental concentrations. Conclusion Both chlorine-containing disinfectants and peroxide disinfectants can effectively inactivate EV-71, while guanidine disinfectants and quaternary ammonium salt disinfectants have poor inactivation effects on the virus under experimental conditions.

    Objective To investigate dental unit waterline (DUWL) contamination in oral healthcare institutions of Yangzhou City, and to observe the intervention effects of disinfection methods. Methods Water samples of DUWL dental hand pieces, air/water syringes, mouth rinse units, and scaler outlets from 16 institutions were collected, and tested for bacterial contamination. Field disinfection experiments were conducted to observe the bacterial control effect of 25 and 50 mg/L chlorine dioxide disinfectant alone and in combination with multi-enzyme detergent on DUWL. Results A total of 175 dental water samples were collected, with an average total qualified rate of 54.29%. The qualified rate of different types of water samples varied significantly ( $\chi$2=10.968, P=0.027), which the highest qualified rate was washing water (80.00%) and the lowest was dental cleaning water (37.93%). The qualified rate of stomatology department in medical institutions was higher than that of private dental clinics ($\chi$2=6.642, P=0.010). On Day 1 after disinfection, qualified rates increased across all groups (P<0.05), though bacterial counts showed no significant intergroup differences (P>0.05). On Day 3, the qualified rates declined markedly, yet 50 mg/L chlorine dioxide combined with multi-enzyme detergent maintained efficacy in handpiece and syringe water (lower bacterial counts). For rinse/mouthwash units, all four methods showed comparable efficacy within one week (P>0.05). Conclusion The dental water exhibits moderate contamination in Yangzhou City, and the combination of chlorine dioxide and multi-enzyme detergent has a certain control effect on DUWL contamination.

    Objective To investigate the physicochemical properties of a novel compound potassium monopersulfate disinfectant and to provide references for its disinfection applications. Methods Physicochemical testing techniques were used to investigate and observe the relevant physicochemical properties of this novel disinfectant containing potassium monopersulfate compound salt, including the effective component content, pH, and metal corrosivity. Results The novel compound potassium monopersulfate disinfectant was a white powder with an active oxygen content of 2.87%. After preparing a disinfectant solution with a concentration of 1 000 mg/L and leaving it for 1 h, the active oxygen content reached a peak of 49.7 mg/L; within 3 days, the active oxygen content could be maintained at over 90% of the initial concentration. The pH range of the disinfectant solution with a concentration of 1 000-6 000 mg/L was 2.43-3.00. 3 types of disinfectants showed moderate corrosion to aluminum, carbon steel, and copper wafers, but had essentially no corrosion to stainless steel wafers. Conclusion The compound potassium monopersulfate disinfectant shows stable physicochemical properties. The decrease in effective components in the solution is related to its preparation concentration and storage time, and it exhibits corrosivity to metals.

    Objective To evaluate the disinfection efficacy of plasma air disinfection machines in the dynamic hospital environment and to analyze the correlation between airborne colony counts and bioaerosol concentration along with influencing factors. Methods The natural sedimentation method and aerosol monitors were employed to measure airborne bacterial colony counts and aerosol concentrations in two groups of hospital wards—one equipped with plasma air disinfection devices and the other without. A multivariate linear regression analysis and correlation analysis were conducted to examine the relationship between airborne bacterial colony counts and aerosol concentrations in the experimental and control groups. Results After disinfection, the airborne colony count in the test group (2.66 ± 0.74) cfu/(plate · 5 min) was significantly lower than that in the control group (4.74 ± 2.59) cfu/(plate · 5 min) (P< 0.05). Correlation analysis revealed a positive correlation between airborne colony counts and the total bioaerosol concentration (r= 0.170, P< 0.05), with a significant association specifically with particles≥2.5 µm in diameter (P< 0.001). Factors such as window ventilation, use of other respiratory medical devices, total number of people in the ward, and toilet usage showed statistically significant effects on airborne colony counts (P< 0.05). Room temperature, mask-wearing rate in the ward, and toilet usage might influence the concentration of bioaerosols in the air (P< 0.05). Conclusion The application of a plasma air disinfector under dynamic hospital operating conditions demonstrates certain disinfection efficacy. Routine monitoring of aerosol concentration, particularly bioaerosol concentration, is beneficial for assessing the transmission risk of airborne pathogenic microorganisms.

    Objective To understand the disinfection quality of public medical institutions at various levels in Ningxia, so as to provide references for infection control in medical institutions. Method According to the GB15982—2012 Hospital Disinfection and Hygiene Standards, on-site sampling and detection of microbial indicators were conducted on 7 items including indoor air, object surfaces, and medical water in 66 medical institutions from 2021 to 2023, and the qualified rate of disinfection quality was analyzed and evaluated. Result A total of 17 656 monitoring samples were collected from public medical institutions at all levels in Ningxia, with a total qualified rate of 97.74%. The annual qualified rate was on the rise ( $\chi$2trend=9.592, P<0.001). There was a statistically significant difference in the qualified rate of medical institutions at different levels ( $\chi$2=93.221, P<0.001), with the overall qualified rate of first level medical institutions being the lowest (96.45%) and the qualified rate of second level medical institutions being the highest (98.84%). There was a statistically significant difference in the qualified rate of disinfection quality among different monitoring items ( $\chi$2=350.061, P<0.001), with the lowest qualified rate for medical water (90.52%) and the highest qualified rate for disinfectant in use (99.74%). The qualified rate of ultraviolet lamps and medical water increased year by year in the past three years ( $\chi$2trend= 9.863 and 7.170, P<0.05). Conclusion The overall disinfection quality of public medical institutions in Ningxia from 2021 to 2023 is relatively high, with a qualified rate of over 95%. However, the disinfection quality of first level medical institutions still needs to be improved. Endoscopes and medical water are weak links in disinfection work, and special monitoring should be further carried out.

    Objective To investigate the status of disinfection and infection prevention and control management in funeral places, as well as the microbial contamination status, and to analyze the impact of IPC management on microbial contamination in funeral places. Methods By employing a questionnaire survey method, 19 funeral places were randomly selected from six provinces (municipalities) across the country to investigate the status of infection prevention and control as well as disinfection-related work. Simultaneously, on-site sampling and microbial testing were conducted to determine the total bacterial colony counts on surfaces of makeup and cosmetic tools, cremator buttons, and surfaces in contact with cadavers within these facilities. Furthermore, influencing factors of environmental microbial contamination were analyzed. Results The implementation rate of infection control knowledge training was relatively low (31.58%). The implementation rates of management measures in funeral places were relatively high for the following items: having established disinfection related regulations or protocols (68.42%), regularly inspecting the implementation of disinfection (63.16%), and strictly performing object surface disinfection according to the scope specified by the standards (57.89%). A total of 466 surface samples were collected on-site, among which 79.61% had a total bacterial colony count of ≤300 cfu/25 cm2. The qualification rates for surface samples in large, medium, and small funeral service facilities were 72.85%, 71.97%, and 92.40%, respectively, with small facilities showing a higher qualification rate ($\chi$2=25.385, P<0.05). Among various types of surface samples, faucets had the lowest qualification rate (48.57%), while cremator buttons had the highest rate (100.00%). The qualification rates for embalming equipment and door handles in makeup rooms were relatively low, at 56.00% and 64.29%, respectively. Conclusion The microbial contamination levels on surfaces of faucets and embalming instruments within funeral homes are relatively serious, and the implementation rate of comprehensive disinfection coverage on object surfaces should be improved.

    Objective To evaluate the disinfection effect of two disinfectants on bacteria in the dust accumulated in centralized air-conditioning return air filters, and to explore the effect of air conditioner filter cleaning and disinfection methods on the total number of relevant indoor air bacteria. Methods During the period from 2018 to 2024, the dust accumulated in the return air filters of centralized air-conditioning units in some wards of three tertiary hospitals in Wuhan was sampled, and the total number of bacteria was calculated. Simulated on-site and on-site disinfection tests were conducted on air-conditioning filters using a chlorine disinfectant with an effective chlorine level of 500 mg/L and a complex quaternary ammonium salt disinfectants with a level of 3 000 mg/L, and the disinfection effects were evaluated. Changes in bacterial counts in indoor air before and after direct rinsing of air-conditioning filters with tap water and after disinfection and then rinsing were detected using the plate exposure method and the air sampler method in the dirty washroom of a hospital department. Results The amount of dust accumulated in the air conditioner return air filters was positively correlated with the total number of bacteria, with a correlation coefficient of 0.77. The results of the simulated on-site disinfection test showed that the concentration of chlorine-containing disinfectant and compound quaternary ammonium salt disinfectant failed to disinfect the filter when the concentration decreased to 31.20 mg/L and 1 820.70 mg/L, respectively. The results of on-site disinfection test showed that when the concentration of chlorine-containing disinfectant and compound quaternary ammonium salt disinfectant were lower than 50 mg/L and 2 000 mg/L, respectively, the filter disinfection failed. Both the plate exposure method and the air sampler method showed that the direct use of tap water to rinse the filters significantly increased the total number of airborne bacteria in the room of interest. After disinfecting and then rinsing the filter with tap water, the total number of indoor air bacteria was similar to that before cleaning. Conclusion Chlorine disinfectant (effective chlorine 500 mg/L) and compound quaternary ammonium salt disinfectant (3 000 mg/L) can effectively kill bacteria in the dust of centralized air-conditioning return air filter after 5 minutes disinfection. The use of pre-sanitization followed by cleaning reduces bacterial contamination of the relevant indoor air environment.
