Note, List of Household Products for Corona Virus DisinfectionKOMPAS.com – Disinfectants are one of the keys to preventing the spread of the virus.There is a lot of information about active ingredients and household products for disinfection of the corona virus (SARS-CoV-2) that causes Covid-19.However, this information is often confusing, and some are even hoaxes.The Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI) has released a temporary list of active ingredients and household products for disinfection of the corona virus that causes Covid-19.Corona virus is a virus that has a envelope or envelope (enveloped virus) with a protective layer of fat."Disinfectants can damage the fat layer, so that the corona virus is quite weak compared to norovirus which is a virus without an envelope and other viruses that have a stronger protein shell," said Head of the LIPI Clean Technology Research Workshop Ajeng Arum Sari in a written statement to Kompas.com , Tuesday (24/3/2020).Also read: Know the Symptoms of the New Corona Virus that Causes Covid-19LIPI Clean Technology Research Center researcher Chandra Risdian revealed that many common household products contain concentrations of active ingredients that are suitable for disinfection.According to him, the active ingredients and their effective concentrations have been shown to be effective against the corona virus based on literature studies."Besides the use of cleaning agents, other effective treatments for the corona virus are the method of applying steam and heat treatment," said Chandra.Also read: Before going to the hospital, check the Covid-19 early detection for free hereBased on information received from The Robert Koch Institute (RKI) Germany, Chandra explained that if disinfectant products that are active against the corona virus are not available, other disinfectant products that have at least virucidal activity against the enveloped virus can also be used.Here are 11 active ingredients that are effective for corona virus disinfection:1. Accelerated hydrogen peroxide (0.5%) 2. Benzalkonium chloride / quaternary ammonium / alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride) (0.05%) 3. Chloroxylenol (0.12%)c 4. Ethyl alcohol or ethanol (62-71%) 5. Iodine in iodophor (50 ppm) 6. Isopropanol or 2-propanol (50%) 7. Pine oil (0.23%) 8. Povidone-iodine (1% iodine) 9. Sodium hypochlorite (0.05 – 0.5%) 10. Sodium chlorite ( 0.23%) 11. Sodium dichloroisocyanurate (0.1-0.5%)gFor general preventative cleaning, Chandra suggests using soapy water or other detergents.Surfaces that require frequent cleaning include tables, doorknobs, light switches, telephones, toilets, faucets, and sinks.“After cleaning, then use disinfectant for better protection.If someone is sick at home, then disinfection must be done," he said.Also read: Even though it is useful, sunbathing cannot kill the Corona VirusChandra explained that people need to pay attention to several things when using disinfectants.Avoid contact with eyes and skin when handling cleaning products, and keep out of reach of children.“Check the label and use it according to the instructions.Be aware of the potential dangers of each product," he said.Also, do not mix different cleaning products and use them in a well-ventilated area.Also read: Facing the Corona Virus Outbreak, Let's Start Acting Based on Research“For disinfection of highly contaminated areas, the surface should be disinfected using a cloth that has been moistened with a disinfectant solution.Don't spray directly on highly contaminated surfaces because it will spread the virus into the air," Chandra said.The following is a provisional list of household disinfectant products that have been surveyed on a limited basis, and their dilution methods.This list will be continuously updated by LIPI according to incoming data.1.

Volume of initial solution = (Desired final concentration x Volume of final solution) / initial concentration of product2. Volume of water added = Volume of final solution - Volume of initial solution3. Example of dilution of a product containing 5.25% sodium hypochlorite to 0.1% sodium hypochlorite for a final volume of 1000 ml: - Initial solution volume = (0.1% x 1000 ml) / 5.25% = 19.05 ml (you can use 20 ml for convenience) - Added volume of water = 1000 ml - 20 ml = 980 ml of water (can use tap water) - For convenience, you can just add 20 ml of pro solution.LIPI urges the public to buy according to their needs and prioritize the availability of materials and products for more urgent medical treatment of Covid-19.This article is part of Parapuan.Parapuan is a space for women's self-actualization to achieve their dreams.Write your comments with the hashtag #JernihBerkomentar and win e-vouchers for 90 winners!Get information and insight selected by Kompas.com editorsDouble check and complete your data.Your data will be used for account verification when you need assistance or when unusual activity is found on your account.Immediately complete your data to join the #JernihBerkomentar program.
