Disinfectants for medical devices include chemical agents such as hydrogen peroxide, peracetic acid, glutaraldehyde, and ortho-phthalaldehyde (OPA). These agents are used for high-level disinfection to effectively eliminate bacteria, viruses, and fungi from medical instruments. The choice of disinfectant often depends on the type of device, material compatibility, and the level of disinfection required.
