Four glutaraldehyde disinfectants (Cidex, Glutarex, Sonacide, and Sporicidin) were tested in routine use in the Cidematic washer to identify the most economic, effective disinfectant among them. An in vitro killing test with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (10-min exposure) and Mycobacterium smegmatis (20-min exposure) was used. All four disinfectants were effective prior to first use. In the use tests, Cidex killed both organisms for its claimed effectiveness period of 2 weeks. Glutarex was effective against Pseudomonas for its claimed effectiveness period of 4 weeks but was effective against Mycobacterium only 3 weeks. Sonacide, claimed to be effective for 4 weeks, killed Pseudomonas for 2 weeks but was ineffective against Mycobacterium after 1 week. Sporicidin (1:15 dilution), claimed to be effective for 30 days, did not kill either test organism after 5 days. Glutarex used for a 3-week period was found to be the most economic, effective substitute for Cidex in the Cidematic machine.
对四种戊二醛消毒剂（Cidex、Glutarex、Sonacide和Sporicidin）在Cidematic清洗机中的常规使用情况进行了测试，以确定其中最经济、有效的消毒剂。采用了对铜绿假单胞菌（暴露10分钟）和耻垢分枝杆菌（暴露20分钟）的体外杀灭试验。所有四种消毒剂在首次使用前均有效。在使用测试中，Cidex在其宣称的2周有效期内杀死了两种微生物。Glutarex在其宣称的4周有效期内对铜绿假单胞菌有效，但对耻垢分枝杆菌仅在3周内有效。Sonacide宣称有效期为4周，对铜绿假单胞菌的杀灭效果持续了2周，但对耻垢分枝杆菌在1周后无效。Sporicidin（1:15稀释液）宣称有效期为30天，在5天后对两种测试微生物均无杀灭效果。发现在Cidematic机器中，使用3周的Glutarex是Cidex最经济、有效的替代品。
