Recommended Germicides
In order to provide users with options in choosing a germicide, GE routinely reviews new medical germicides for compatibility with the Vscan Extend and its probe. Although a necessary step in protecting patients and employees from disease transmission, liquid chemical germicides must also be selected to minimize potential damage to the device.
