[The treatment of thermolabile instruments with water after cold sterilization with Gigasept (author's transl)]

After careful disinfection of polished surfaces of V4A steel, rubber or PVC with a 10% Gigasept solution it is already sufficient to dip the plates into water for 5 min one time only in order to practically clear off all residues. In order to receive also those parts free from residues which are unfavourably shaped regarding their geometry they should be rinsed twice. This second time should last 1 h or if a shorter dipping time is desired the instrument should be moved.
