In ISO-class and regulated controlled areas, alcohol use succeeds or fails on repeatability: consistent wetting, consistent dwell, and consistent documentation. When teams mix bottle types, refill sprayers, or lose track of lot-level paperwork, deviations tend to show up as streaking, re-deposition, or “mystery residues” that trigger re-cleaning cycles and line delays.

CiDehol ST is built around that reality. Decon describes it as a sterile, ready-to-use 70% isopropyl alcohol (IPA) solution made with Water-For-Injection (WFI), filtered to 0.2 µm, and packaged with process controls that support sterility, endotoxin limits, and traceable lot documentation.

Distributor note: SOSCleanroom has been a distributor of Decon for over 10 years supporting cleanrooms across the United States.

• Each lot is tested for bacterial endotoxin (LAL) and sterility via USP 14-day sterility test.
• Endotoxin criteria stated by Decon: less than 0.25 EU/mL (WFI level criteria).
• Lot-specific documentation is attached to every case detailing QC, irradiation, endotoxin limits, and sterility.
• EPA registration published by Decon (EPA Reg. No. 56753-1) with organism/contact-time guidance on the technical data sheet.

CiDehol ST is a sterile 70% IPA (v/v) USP isopropyl alcohol solution made with Water-For-Injection (WFI). Decon lists the ingredients as 70.00% Isopropyl Alcohol (USP) and 30.00% Water-for-Injection (USP).

The 8332 format is a 32 oz trigger-spray bottle. Decon’s product page notes availability in trigger spray bottles with heads attached and gallon size options across the CiDehol ST family.

For sterile alcohol programs, the most operationally important specifications are the ones your receiving and QA teams can verify: filtration/processing controls, sterility assurance, endotoxin criteria, and lot documentation discipline.

For IPA, “performance” is a blend of chemistry and discipline. Decon provides specific contact times and organism claims on the technical data sheet, and it specifies use instructions that emphasize maintaining a wet surface for the stated minimum time. In practice, most alcohol-related failures come from flash-off (surface dries too quickly), reusing a contaminated wipe face, or skipping pre-clean on gross soil.

Safety context matters in cleanrooms because an incident interrupts production. Decon’s SDS classifies the material as a flammable liquid (UN 1219, Class 3, Packing Group II) with acute exposure controls and PPE recommendations. Align ventilation, ignition-source control, and eye protection with your chemical hygiene program.

• Sterility assurance: Gamma irradiated to SAL 10^-6 (Decon TDS).
• Cleanroom packaging controls: Bottled and double-bagged within a cleanroom (Decon TDS). SOS listing describes packaging in a Class 100 cleanroom.
• Lot testing: USP 14-day sterility test and bacterial endotoxin testing via LAL (Decon TDS).
• Endotoxin criterion stated by Decon: less than 0.25 EU/mL (WFI level criteria).
• Traceability: Lot-specific documentation attached to every case covering QC, irradiation, endotoxin limits, and sterility (Decon TDS).
• Country of origin: Not published in source basis.
• Shipping controls: SOS listing indicates Consumer Commodity ORM-D and ground-only shipment; Decon SDS notes Limited Quantity language for sizes 1 liter or less. Confirm current carrier requirements during shipment planning.

A sterile IPA trigger spray is most effective when the operator controls three things: (1) where the liquid goes, (2) how long the surface stays wet, and (3) what the wipe is doing (lifting vs spreading). Decon’s use instructions emphasize pre-cleaning heavy soil, spraying from a defined distance, and keeping the surface wet for the minimum time.

• Flash-off before contact time: Surface dries early, especially on warm metal and in high airflow. This is the most common reason disinfecting steps underperform.
• Skipping pre-clean: Applying alcohol over gross soil reduces effective wetting and can trap residues under a quickly drying film.
• Wipe-face overload: Reusing the same wipe face across multiple zones spreads soil rather than lifting it.
• Overspray into seams and hardware: Direct spraying into hinges/threads can mobilize contamination and re-release it later.
• Safety drift: Alcohol near ignition sources, poor ventilation, or inadequate eye protection creates avoidable incidents that disrupt operations.

For sterile 70% IPA trigger sprays, the meaningful differences are typically: (1) WFI/non-pyrogenic positioning and endotoxin criteria, (2) sterility assurance method and documentation quality, and (3) lot-level paperwork discipline shipped with each case. Compare based on what your QA team can verify at receiving.

• Other sterile 70% IPA cleanroom trigger sprays (WFI-based offerings): Evaluate filtration claims, endotoxin criteria, SAL/sterility method, and whether every case includes lot-specific documentation.
• Sterile IPA in bulk with in-house decanting: Often increases handling variability and documentation gaps; many facilities see higher deviation rates when sprayers are refilled or reassembled without controlled packaging.
• Pre-wetted sterile IPA wipes: Useful when spray control is difficult; compare saturation uniformity, package integrity, and documentation provided.

CiDehol ST is positioned by Decon for cleanroom areas within pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device facilities and for use wherever a sterile, non-pyrogenic alcohol solution is required. The Decon technical data sheet and product page support use on hard, non-porous surfaces and equipment, including common cleanroom materials.

Program-fit note: Facilities should align alcohol use to their overall contamination-control strategy, including cleaning validation logic, environmental monitoring trends, and any required disinfectant/sporicidal rotation plans. Alcohol steps are often part of a broader system, not the entire system.
