Orangeburg, NY (PRWEB) November 21, 2007 -- According to a recent study, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is responsible for 19,000 deaths per year.* No longer a problem confined to hospitals and nursing homes, community-acquired MRSA poses a real threat to the public health.

Specialists insist that good hand hygiene is one of the most effective ways to stem the spread of this potentially deadly infection since a single hand can carry as many as 200 million bacteria per square inch after using the rest room. Surfaces also carry substantial germs and bacteria. MRSA can live on inanimate surfaces for over 50 days.** Hospital-grade wet wipes manufactured by Professional Disposables International (PDI) offer a number of products that sanitize and disinfect hands and surfaces, reducing chances for infection in hospitals or the community.

For Hands:

* Sani-Dex® ALC Antimicrobial Alcohol Gel Hand Wipes are clinically proven to kill 99.99% of germs, including MRSA, while removing bacteria and soil from hands. Studies show a higher microbial log reduction than an alcohol rub-in gel.

* Sani-Hands® for Kids Antimicrobial Alcohol Gel Hand Wipes are enhanced by the friction of wipe delivery. They, too, kill 99.99% of germs, including MRSA and contain moisturing aloe and Vitamin E. FDA food code compliant, they may be used before meals.

For Surfaces:

* Super Sani-Cloth® Germicidal Disposable Wipes offer the fastest EPA approved "kill claim," eradicating MRSA, VRE, Human Coronavirus, Rotavirus and E.coli from treated surfaces in less than two minutes.

* Sani-Cloth® Plus Germicidal Disposable Cloths feature a low-alcohol formula (14.85%) for the disinfection of hard, non-porous surfaces and equipment. Kills MRSA, VRE and TB in five minutes.

* Sani-Cloth® HB Germicidal Disposable Wipes are an alcohol-free formula ideal for the disinfection of alcohol-sensitive hard, non-porous surfaces and equipment. Kills many dangerous organisms including MRSA in less than 10 minutes.

According to infection control expert Jean Fleming, R.N., MPM, CIC, hand and surface wipes offer an effective and totally portable method of sanitizing and disinfecting hands and surfaces. "Wipes provide a friction action that is one of the easiest and most effective ways of stopping the spread of MRSA and other dangerous infections," says Fleming, who travels around the country to hospitals and community groups explaining the best way to disinfect hands and surfaces on behalf of PDI, the world's leading manufacturer of hand and surface sanitizing and disinfecting wipes.
