Burkholderia cepacia

Unfortunately, these bacteria are also found in fluids, such as saline used for intravenous or respiratory irrigation purposes, found in hospital and healthcare settings.  In general, there are strict procedures in place in healthcare settings to prevent the transmission of these bacteria.

Control and Elimination of Burkholderia

Burkholderia can be difficult to kill on surfaces.  These bacteria have been demonstrated to survive contact with betadine and benzalkonium chloride, both of which are common topical disinfectants.

Fortunately, you can control B. complex bacteria in your personal environment with MoldStat Plus.  MoldStat Plus is an easy to use general disinfectant that has been demonstrated and registered with the EPA as effectivene against the B. complex bacteria.  Testing was conducted specifically against B. cepacia as a marker for the entire group.  While it is rare for the B. complex bacteria to cause disease in most people, these bacteria can serve as a marker for unresolved contamination with human waste material, specifically respiratory droplets, which it is necessary to remove in settings such as hospitals and nursing facilities.  Other environments that may wish to control such contamination include, but are not limited to, homes, schools or gyms.  This would be especially important in settings, including homes, where individuals living with cystic fibrosis are living or frequently visit.

MoldStat Plus is highly concentrated so a little amount cleans a very large area.  Conveniently, and completely unlike cleaners that include bleach, MoldStat Plus is safe for many surfaces including both porous and non-porous surfaces, as well as surfaces such as fabric that may not be colorfast or which could be badly damaged, or destroyed, by most other commercial disinfectants.  Best of all, Mold-Stat Plus it is no more difficult to use than other common household cleaners.  And those cleaners almost always lack the wide range of demonstrated effectiveness against multiple bacteria, viruses and fungi; effectiveness that MoldStat Plus has demonstrated and documented with the EPA!  And, MoldStat Plus leaves behind a mild, clean, and pleasant scent instead of the heavy industrial disinfectant odor so commonly associated with hospitals and other healthcare settings.  Nobody wants their personal environment to smell like that and some people may be sensitive to such chemical residues.  There is a very low incidence of chemical sensitivity amongst the users of MoldStat Plus.  So, try MoldStat Plus today to remove and destroy odors, bacteria, viruses, and fungi, including potentially disease-causing, even fatal, Burkholderia complex bacteria such as Burkholderia cepacia!
