Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the role of Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG) in Bactorub Pink?

Bactorub Pink contains Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG), which provides strong antimicrobial activity against bacteria, including MRSA, mycobacteria, and fungi. When combined with alcohol, CHG helps delay bacterial regrowth, offering extended residual protection and improving the overall effectiveness of Bactorub Pink for hand disinfection and skin antisepsis.

2) How should Bactorub Pink be used for rapid hand disinfection?

Bactorub Pink should be applied undiluted on clean, dry hands.
Hygienic hand disinfection: Use 3 ml and rub for 30 seconds, covering hands up to the wrist.
Surgical hand disinfection: Use 6 ml and rub for approximately 1.5 minutes, covering hands and forearms up to the elbows.
This ensures thorough antimicrobial action and effective hand hygiene.

3) What are the areas of application for Bactorub Pink?

Bactorub Pink is suitable for several healthcare applications, including:
Rapid hand disinfection in clinical and hospital environments
Skin antisepsis on intact skin
Pre-operative or perioperative skin preparation, where the solution should be allowed to air dry for up to 30 seconds before incision

4) Is Bactorub Pink effective against antibiotic-resistant bacteria like MRSA?

Yes. Bactorub Pink is a broad-spectrum medicated hand rub formulated with ethanol and CHG, which work synergistically to eliminate a wide range of pathogens. It is effective against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), making Bactorub Pink suitable for high-risk clinical environments.

5) Can the alcohol in Bactorub Pink dry your skin?

No. Although Bactorub Pink contains IP-grade ethanol for rapid antimicrobial action, the formulation also includes skin emollients and moisturising agents. These ingredients help protect the skin barrier, maintain hydration, and prevent dryness, even with frequent use.

6) Is Bactorub Pink safe for frequent use during long medical shifts?

Yes. Bactorub Pink is specifically designed for healthcare professionals who need to disinfect their hands repeatedly throughout the day. The inclusion of medical-grade moisturisers and skin conditioners helps prevent contact dermatitis, irritation, and skin cracking, making it suitable for frequent use during long clinical shifts.
