PROTEX® DISINFECTANTS CAN BE USED AGAINST 2019 NOVEL CORONAVIRUS
FAIRFIELD, New Jersey – Parker Laboratories, Inc. announces Protex® Disinfectant Spray
and Protex® Ultra Disinfectant Wipes have demonstrated effectiveness against viruses similar
to 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) on hard, non-porous surfaces. Protex disinfectants
can therefore be used against 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) when used in accordance
with the Directions for Use against Norovirus on hard, non-porous surfaces.
Refer to the CDC website https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html for
additional information.
While they are extremely effective, Protex disinfectants are a low-level disinfection solution. They do not replace a high-level disinfection required for semi-critical instruments (in contact with non-intact skin or mucous membrane)
