CASE STUDY – A Trial of the Bioquell ProteQ in a World Leading UK Hospital

In 2019, Bioquell, an Ecolab solution, was offered the opportunity to trial its latest development in automated room decontamination technology, the Bioquell ProteQ, at the world renowned St Thomas’ Hospital in London.

During the nine month trial, the Bioquell ProteQ performed over 460 room decontaminations faultlessly, and at one point the system was used non-stop over a 72 hour period to help combat an outbreak on the ICU. By providing 6-log decontamination cycles in patient rooms and larger critical areas like operating theatres, the Bioquell ProteQ played a key role in minimising the spread of healthcare acquired infections within the hospital.
