Decontamination Of Surfaces Contaminated With Prion-Infected Material With Oxidizing Agent-Based Formulations

View page
US Patent:
7001873, Feb 21, 2006
Filed:
Mar 14, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/098767
Inventors:
Gerald E. McDonnell - Chardon OH, US
Herbert J. Kaiser - Pontoon Beach IL, US
Kathleen M. Antloga - Chardon OH, US
Jennifer A. Scocos - North Royalton OH, US
Assignee:
Steris Inc. - Temecula CA
International Classification:
C11D 1/00
C02F 5/08
US Classification:
510161, 510218, 422 13, 422 28
Abstract:
A surface which carries a material which is infected with prions is cleaned with an alkaline cleaning solution to remove as much proteinaceous material as possible from the surface. The cleaning agent is an alkaline cleaning agent which attacks prions remaining on the surface and which attacks prions removed from the surface during the cleaning step. After the cleaning solution is drained, a solution of surfactants, buffers, and heavy metal free corrosion inhibitors is circulated over the surface at 50–60 C. The surfactants disperse and unclump the prion-contaminated material. A strong oxidant, preferably peracetic acid, is added to the solution to bring the peracetic acid concentration to 1,000–2,500 ppm. The peracetic acid or other strong oxidant attacks the prions, particularly the unclumped prion strands, deactivating the prions. After rinsing and drying, the surface may be wrapped in a microbe impermeable barrier and subjected to terminal sterilization, such as steam autoclaving.

Cleaning And Decontamination Formula For Surfaces Contaminated With Prion-Infected Material

US Patent:
7071152, Jul 4, 2006
Filed:
May 30, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/448910
Inventors:
Gerald E. McDonnell - Basingstoke, GB
Herbert J. Kaiser - Pontoon Beach IL, US
Kathleen M. Antloga - Chardon OH, US
Mildred R. Bernardo - St. Louis MO, US
Assignee:
Steris Inc. - Temecula CA
International Classification:
C11D 3/395
C11D 7/18
US Classification:
510161, 510367, 510370, 510372, 510375, 510403
Abstract:
A method of treating the surfaces of medical instruments which are contaminated with prions includes contacting the surface with a composition containing a source of peroxide ions, such as hydrogen peroxide, at a molar concentration of at least 1. 5M peroxide (equivalent to approximately 5% hydrogen peroxide) and preferably, about 2M peroxide (approximately 7% hydrogen peroxide). The composition is optionally in the form of a gel. The composition is retained in contact with the surfaces for about 1–2 hours until all or substantially all prion contamination is removed.

Vitro Model Of Priocidal Activity

US Patent:
7129080, Oct 31, 2006
Filed:
Oct 4, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/264606
Inventors:
Kathleen M. Antloga - Chardon OH, US
Gerald E. McDonnell - Chardon OH, US
Assignee:
Steris Inc. - Temecula CA
International Classification:
A01N 25/00
A01L 2/00
A61L 2/16
A61L 101/00
US Classification:
435262, 422 1, 422 28, 422 30
Abstract:
A proteinaceous material has been found to show similar activity and treatment response to that of disease causing prions, such as CJD. A prion model which incorporates the proteinaceous material has a variety of applications. The model has an ability to be cultured either in vivo or in vitro, allowing rapid screening of potential drugs for treating animals or humans, or methods of treating food products or items which may come into contact with prions, such as medical or dental devices. Several treatment methods and materials have been developed using the model.
