  • effectiveness of liquid soap and Hand Sanitizer against norwalk virus on contaminated Hands
    Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2010
    Co-Authors: Yvonne Yuen, Huimien Hsiao, Lee-ann Jaykus
    Abstract:

    Disinfection is an essential measure for interrupting human norovirus (HuNoV) transmission, but it is difficult to evaluate the efficacy of disinfectants due to the absence of a practicable cell culture system for these viruses. The purpose of this study was to screen sodium hypochlorite and ethanol for efficacy against Norwalk virus (NV) and expand the studies to evaluate the efficacy of antibacterial liquid soap and alcohol-based Hand Sanitizer for the inactivation of NV on human finger pads. Samples were tested by real-time reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) both with and without a prior RNase treatment. In suspension assay, sodium hypochlorite concentrations of ≥160 ppm effectively eliminated RT-qPCR detection signal, while ethanol, regardless of concentration, was relatively ineffective, giving at most a 0.5 log10 reduction in genomic copies of NV cDNA. Using the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standard finger pad method and a modification thereof (with rubbing), we observed the greatest reduction in genomic copies of NV cDNA with the antibacterial liquid soap treatment (0.67 to 1.20 log10 reduction) and water rinse only (0.58 to 1.58 log10 reduction). The alcohol-based Hand Sanitizer was relatively ineffective, reducing the genomic copies of NV cDNA by only 0.14 to 0.34 log10 compared to baseline. Although the concentrations of genomic copies of NV cDNA were consistently lower on finger pad eluates pretreated with RNase compared to those without prior RNase treatment, these differences were not statistically significant. Despite the promise of alcohol-based Sanitizers for the control of pathogen transmission, they may be relatively ineffective against the HuNoV, reinforcing the need to develop and evaluate new products against this important group of viruses.

  • improved inactivation of nonenveloped enteric viruses and their surrogates by a novel alcohol based Hand Sanitizer
    Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2008
    Co-Authors: David R. Macinga, Lee-ann Jaykus, Syed A Sattar, James W. Arbogast
    Abstract:

    Norovirus is the leading cause of food-related illness in the United States, and contamination of ready-to-eat items by food Handlers poses a high risk for disease. This study reports the in vitro (suspension test) and in vivo (fingerpad protocol) assessments of a new ethanol-based Hand Sanitizer containing a synergistic blend of polyquaternium polymer and organic acid, which is active against viruses of public health importance, including norovirus. When tested in suspension, the test product reduced the infectivity of the nonenveloped viruses human rotavirus (HRV), poliovirus type 1 (PV-1), and the human norovirus (HNV) surrogates feline calicivirus (FCV) F-9 and murine norovirus type 1 (MNV-1) by greater than 3 log10 after a 30-s exposure. In contrast, a benchmark alcohol-based Hand Sanitizer reduced only HRV by greater than 3 log10 and none of the additional viruses by greater than 1.2 log10 after the same exposure. In fingerpad experiments, the test product produced a 2.48 log10 reduction of MNV-1 after a 30-s exposure, whereas a 75% ethanol control produced a 0.91 log10 reduction. Additionally, the test product reduced the infectivity titers of adenovirus type 5 (ADV-5) and HRV by ≥3.16 log10 and ≥4.32 log10, respectively, by the fingerpad assay within 15 s; and PV-1 was reduced by 2.98 log10 in 30 s by the same method. Based on these results, we conclude that this new ethanol-based Hand Sanitizer is a promising option for reducing the transmission of enteric viruses, including norovirus, by food Handlers and care providers.

  • ethyl glucuronide ethyl sulfate and ethanol in urine after sustained exposure to an ethanol based Hand Sanitizer
    Journal of Analytical Toxicology, 2011
    Co-Authors: Gary M. Reisfield, Bruce A Goldberger, Bridgit Crews, Scott Teitelbaum, George R. Wilson, Amadeo J Pesce, Roger L. Bertholf
    Abstract:

    : To assess the degree of ethanol absorption and subsequent formation of urinary ethyl glucuronide (EtG) and ethyl sulfate (EtS) following sustained application of Hand Sanitizer, 11 volunteers cleansed their Hands with Purell(™) Hand Sanitizer (62% ethanol) every 5 min for 10 h on three consecutive days. Urine specimens were obtained at the beginning and end of each day of the study, and on the morning of the fourth day. Urinary creatinine, ethanol, EtG, and EtS concentrations were measured. EtG was undetectable in all pre-study urine specimens, but two pre-study specimens had detectable EtS (73 and 37 ng/mL). None of the pre-study specimens had detectable ethanol. The maximum EtG and EtS concentrations over the course of the study were 2001 and 84 ng/mL, respectively, and nearly all EtG- and EtS-positive urine specimens were collected at the conclusion of the individual study days. Only two specimens had detectable EtG at the beginning of any study day (96 and 139 ng/mL), and only one specimen had detectable EtS at the beginning of a study day (64 ng/mL), in addition to the two with detectable EtS prior to the study. Creatinine-adjusted maximum EtG and EtS concentrations were 1998 and 94 μg/g creatinine, respectively. In patients being monitored for ethanol use by urinary EtG concentrations, currently accepted EtG cutoffs do not distinguish between ethanol consumption and incidental exposures, particularly when urine specimens are obtained shortly after sustained use of ethanolcontaining Hand Sanitizer. Our data suggest that EtS may be an important complementary biomarker in distinguishing ethanol consumption from dermal exposure.

  • Use of alcohol Hand Sanitizer as an infection control strategy in an acute care facility.
    American Journal of Infection Control, 2003
    Co-Authors: Jessica Hilburn, Brian S. Hammond, Eleanor J. Fendler, Patricia A. Groziak
    Abstract:

    Abstract Background: Nosocomial infections are a major problem in health care facilities, resulting in extended durations of care, substantial morbidity and mortality, and excess costs. Since alcohol gel Hand Sanitizers combine high immediate antimicrobial efficacy with ease of use, this study was carried out to determine the effect of the use of an alcohol gel Hand Sanitizer by caregivers on infection types and rates in an acute care facility. Patients were educated about the study through a poster on the unit, and teachable patients were given portable bottles of the alcohol Hand gel for bedside use, along with an educational brochure explaining how and why to practice good Hand hygiene. Methods: Infection rate and type data were collected in 1 unit of a 498-bed acute care facility for 16 months (February 2000 to May 2001). An alcohol gel Hand Sanitizer was provided and used by caregivers in the orthopedic surgical unit of the facility during this period. Results: The primary infection types (more than 80%) found were urinary tract (UTI) and surgical site (SSI) infections. Infection types and rates for the unit during the period the alcohol Hand Sanitizer (intervention) was used were compared with the infection types and rates for the same unit when the alcohol Hand Sanitizer was not used (baseline); the results demonstrated a 36.1% decrease in infection rates for the 10-month period that the Hand Sanitizer was used. Conclusion: This study indicates that use of an alcohol gel Hand Sanitizer can decrease infection rates and provide an additional tool for an effective infection control program in acute care facilities.

    Abstract:

    Abstract Background: Nosocomial infections are a major problem in health care facilities, resulting in extended durations of care and substantial morbidity. Since alcohol gel Hand Sanitizers combine high immediate antimicrobial efficacy with ease of use, this study was carried out to determine the effect of the use of alcohol gel Hand Sanitizer by caregivers on infection types and rates in an extended care facility. Method: Infection rate and type data were collected in a 275-bed extended care facility for 34 months (July 1997 to May 2000), during which an alcohol gel Hand Sanitizer was used by the caregivers in 2 units of the facility. Results: The primary infection types found were urinary tract with Foley catheter, respiratory tract, and wound infections. Comparison of the infection types and rates for the units where Hand Sanitizer was used with those for the control units where the Hand Sanitizer was not used showed a 30.4% decrease in infection rates for the 34-month period in the units where Hand Sanitizer was used. Conclusion: This study indicates that use of an alcohol gel Hand Sanitizer can decrease infection rates and provide an additional tool for an effective infection control program.

  • Effect of Hand Sanitizer use on elementary school absenteeism
    American Journal of Infection Control, 2000
    Co-Authors: Brian S. Hammond, Eleanor J. Fendler, Michael D Dolan, Sandra Donovan
    Abstract:

    Abstract Background: Several studies have indicated a connection between Handwashing and illness-related absenteeism in school settings. The difficulty of ensuring consistent and effective Handwashing among student populations has also been noted. The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the use of an alcohol gel Hand Sanitizer in the classroom to help decrease the illness-related absentee rate for elementary school students. Methods: This study involved 5 individual school districts, 16 individual schools, and more than 6000 students in Delaware, Ohio, Tennessee, and California. Individual schools in each district were paired into product and control groups. In the product group schools, an alcohol gel Hand Sanitizer was used by the students and staff when entering and leaving the classroom. Absenteeism due to infection was recorded, and the data were statistically analyzed. Results: The overall reduction in absenteeism due to infection in the schools included in this study was 19.8% for schools that used an alcohol gel Hand Sanitizer compared with the control schools ( P Conclusion: Elementary school absenteeism due to infection is significantly reduced when an alcohol gel Hand Sanitizer is used in the classroom as part of a Hand hygiene program.
