Remove waste products, excess fluids, and toxins from the blood when the kidneys are unable to function properly. A dialyzer, often called an “artificial kidney,” contains specialized membranes that filter the blood during treatment.

To maintain cleanliness, performance, and patient safety, dialyzers may undergo a reprocessing procedure after use. This process involves thorough rinsing, cleaning, disinfection, and performance testing before the dialyzer can be safely reused in accordance with healthcare standards and facility protocols.

Citric acid is commonly used during the cleaning stage to dissolve mineral deposits, calcium buildup, blood residues, and other inorganic contaminants that accumulate inside the dialyzer fibers and fluid pathways. Its acidic properties help restore flow efficiency and prevent scaling that may affect dialyzer performance.

Peracetic acid is then used as a high-level disinfectant and sterilizing agent. It is effective against a wide range of microorganisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and spores. During the disinfection process, the peracetic acid solution is circulated throughout the dialyzer to ensure all internal surfaces are thoroughly sanitized. After disinfection, the dialyzer is carefully rinsed and tested to ensure that residual chemicals are removed before reuse.

Our citric acid and peracetic acid solutions are formulated to support effective dialyzer cleaning and disinfection processes in dialysis facilities. Designed for reliable performance, our products help remove scale, organic residues, and harmful microorganisms while supporting proper sanitation, operational efficiency, and compliance with healthcare cleaning and infection-control standards.
