carbamide peroxide for disinfection?
Posted: Thu Jun 17, 2010 3:12 pm
We have a team preparing for fieldwork in a very remote region of Russia. Hydrogen peroxide is going to be extremely difficult to obtain.
Can we use carbamide peroxide for disinfection? It's hydrogen peroxide + urea peroxide (stabilizer) that comes in a dry pill form to be dissolved in water.
And would the ideal concentration be 3% or 5%?
Thanks,
jim
