CK_Probe_Sanitizing_TestCourage + Khazaka electronic GmbH has researched and developed a testing C+K probe/devices sanitizing set and a corresponding protocol. The aim is to allow the consumers to use the C+K instruments in the best possible way.

Hand Disinfectant Tested Using Device


Zanitize, a hand disinfectant developed by German Fraunhofer Institute, was chosen because of its skin-friendliness. With 76 percent of ethanol, the sanitizer is well suited to sanitize surfaces (e.g. most C+K probes and devices).

Zanitize is approved as a biocidal product according to the Biocide Regulation (VO [EU] No. 528/2012) for hygienic hand disinfection with the BAuA approval number N-89415. According to the manufacturer it has limited virucidal properties. Effectiveness: COVID-19 Bactericidal, levurocidal, fungicidal, tuberculocidal, mycobactericidal, limited virucidal according to RKI (HBV/HIV, HCV, BVDV, Vaccinia Viruses), Adenovirus, Poliovirus, Rotavirus and Norovirus.

The company has worked on a cleaning protocol for most C+K probes and devices. The described procedures were tested at C+K to be compatible with the material of the probes/devices and when dried completely to not bear any influence on the measurement results.
