Supposed groceries ran out of stock for disinfectant products and you found out that there is still 1L household bleach left in your home. Apply your learnings from this material to perform the needed calculations in order for you to produce your own home made disinfectant.1. From 1 L of household bleach available, a. How much volume of 1:10 house hold bleach solution will you be able to prepare ? b. How much volume of water is needed? c. It has been mentioned earlier that household bleach is a solution of sodium hypochlorite which generally contains 5% (50 g/liter or 50 000 ppm) available chlorine, how many percent of chlorine is present in this solution?2. Prepare 100 ml of 1:100 bleach solution from a 1:10 bleach solution a. How much volume of bleach solution will you need? b. How much volume of water is needed? c. Determine the percentage of chlorine concentration from the solution Activity 2: PREPARING DISINFECTANT SOLUTIONS AT HOMEChlorine is one of the best disinfectant for use against virus contamination because itis cheap and easily available. Also, it has the ability to fragment the Nucleic Acid ofPolymerase Chain Reaction (www.lentech.com) The best compound for the preparation ofchlorine solutions for disinfection is household bleach (also known by other names such asChlorox®, Eau-de-Javel). Household bleach is a solution of sodium hypochlorite whichgenerally contains 5% (50 g/liter or 50 000 ppm) available chlorine.Note that:1. different products may contain different concentrations of available chlorine and theconcentration should be checked before use;2. household bleach preparations can lose some of their chlorine over time. Use newlymanufactured bleach if possible. If the bleach does not smell strongly of chlorine it may notbe satisfactory for the purpose and should not be used;3. thick bleach solutions should never be used for disinfection purposes (other than in toiletbowls) as they contain potentially poisonous additives.When preparing chlorine solutions for use note that:1. chlorine solutions gradually lose strength, and freshly diluted solutions must therefore beprepared daily;2. clear water should be used because organic matter destroys chlorine;3. 1:10 bleach solution is caustic. Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes;4. bleach solutions give off chlorine. Prepare them in a well ventilated area;5. use plastic containers for mixing and storing bleach solutions as metal containers arecorroded rapidly and also affect the bleach.Two different dilutions of bleach are used for disinfection.• 1:10 bleach solution, a strong disinfectant that is used to disinfect: - Excreta - Bodies Saof blood/body fluids - Vehicles and tires - It is also used to prepare 1:100 bleach solution• 1:100 bleach solution, which is used to disinfect: - Surfaces - Medical equipment - BeddiaReusable protective clothing before it is laundered * Also recommended for: - Rinsing gloveebetween contact with different patients (if new gloves are not available - Rinsing alovesaprons, boots before leaving a patient's room- Disinfecting contaminated waste before disposalSupposed groceries ran out of stock for disinfectant products and you found out thatthere is still 1L household bleach left in your home.
