Detergents should be used according to their manufacturer's rec-
ommended concentration levels� Some alkaline detergents have
been formulated to be safe for reprocessing medical devices� The
manufacturers of these detergents should provide information
about specific materials that may be damaged by their detergents�

detergent for 1–5 minutes�
