ECA
Electro Chemical Activation
Electro-chemical Activation, Electrochemical Activation
Electrochemical activation is a technology to produce meta-stable substances using unipolar (anodic or cathodic) electrochemical exposure for further usage of these substances in various technological processes while they still maintain physical-chemical and catalytic overactivity.
Electrolyzed Water
is produced by the electrolysis of ordinary tap water containing dissolved sodium chloride
Anolyte
A st oxidizing solution with a pH range of 2.5 8.5 and an Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP) of +600 to +1000mV
Ecasol™
also known as Anolyte - A st oxidizing solution with a pH range of 2.5 8.5 and an Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP) of +600 to +1000mV
Catholyte
An anti-oxidizing, mild alkaline solution with a pH range of 10.5 to 13.6 and ORP of 600 to 900 mV
Aversol™
also known as Catholyte - An anti-oxidizing, mild alkaline solution with a pH range of 10.5 to 13.6 and ORP of 600 to 900 mV
FEM
Flow-through Electrochemical Module
HOCl
Hypochlorous Acid
Biofilm
A biofilm is an aggregate of microorganisms in which cells adhere to each other and/or to a surface
Hospital Acquired Infections
Nosocomial infections (pronounced, nos-uh-KOH-mee-uhl), are infections that are a result of treatment in a hospital or a healthcare service unit.
Legionella
is a Gram negative bacterium, including species that cause legionellosis or Legionnaires' disease, most notably L. pneumophila
E.coli
Escherichia coli (commonly abbreviated E. coli; named after Theodor Escherich) is a Gram negative rod-shaped bacterium that is commonly found in the lower intestine of warm-blooded organisms (endotherms).
C.diff
Clostridium difficile , is a species of Gram-positive bacteria of the genus Clostridium that causes diarrhea and other intestinal disease when competing bacteria are wiped out by antibiotics.
MRSA
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a bacterium responsible for several difficult-to-treat infections in humans. It may also be called multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus or oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (ORSA).
DUWL
Dental Unit Waterlines
CIP
Clean-in-Place is a method of cleaning the interior surfaces of pipes, vessels, process equipment, filters and associated fittings, without disassembly.
FAC
Free Available Chlorine
PPM
Parts Per Million
CFU
Colony Forming Units
PET
Polyethylene terephthalate
CSD
Carbonated Soft Drinks
Chloride
chloride ion is formed when the element chlorine picks up one electron to form an anion (negatively-charged ion) Cl−.
Titration
a common laboratory method of quantitative chemical analysis that is used to determine the unknown concentration of a known reactant.
Colorimeter
device that measures the absorbance of particular wavelengths of light by a specific solution.
COP
Cleaning Out of Place
Continuous Filler Hygiene
method of constant disinfection during a production line process
Log Reduction
Log reduction is a mathematical term (as is "log increase") used to show the relative number of live microbes eliminated from a surface by disinfecting or cleaning.
Sterilant
Type of antimicrobial that kills (or irreversibly inactivates) all bacteria, fungi, and viruses (called microbials, microbiologicals, microorganisms), including their spores (hardened form) which are among the most difficult-to-kill forms of life.
