August 1, 2025- MicroCare Medical is pleased to announce the launch of Spec Clean™ Pre-treatment Gel Spray, an innovative, ready-to-use spray gel formulated to keep surgical instruments moist after use—helping prevent dried-on debris during transport and reprocessing delays.
Spec Clean™ Pre-treatment Gel Spray features a neutral pH, enzyme-free formula that hold moisture for up to 72 hours, even under high-volume conditions. Designed to minimize damage to delicate devices, it is compatible with a wide range of instrument materials, including stainless steel, aluminum, plastics, glass, and even ophthalmic instruments.
“Spec Clean™ Pre-treatment Gel Spray gives healthcare professionals the confidence that instruments will stay moist, protected, and easier to clean—no matter when reprocessing begins,” said Ray Bellavance, Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing at MicroCare. “It supports safe, efficient workflows while reducing the risk of dried soils, which can be harder to remove and may contribute to biofilm formation.”
Why Enzyme-Free?
While enzymatic products are effective in certain applications, they are not always suitable for all types of instruments or environments. Enzymes can degrade sensitive materials, interfere with specialty coatings, and pose handling concerns for staff with allergies or sensitivities. Spec Clean™ Pre-treatment Gel Spray offers a safer alternative for facilities seeking a universal solution that won’t compromise material compatibility or user safety
Key Benefits of Spec Clean™ Pre-treatment Gel Spray
- 72-Hour Moisture Hold: Keeps hydration of blood and tissue to help prevent hard-to-remove buildup.
- Non-Enzymatic & Non-Corrosive: Safe for use on sensitive materials, including eye instruments and polymer-based devices.
- Bag-On-Valve Technology: Delivers a wide spray angle for thorough, even coverage and less product waste.
- No Sticky Residue: Rinses clean from trays and carts without leaving behind film or residue.
- Visible Coverage: Light green tint provides visual confirmation to support compliance and documentation protocols.
Versatile Use Across Healthcare Facilities
From surgical suites and outpatient centers to emergency departments and labor & delivery rooms, Spec Clean™ Pre-treatment Gel Spray adapts easily to any clinical setting. It’s particularly effective in off-site or high-throughput environments, where reprocessing delays are more common.
Whether used during transport or while instruments await cleaning in the central sterile department, it helps protect delicate tools, streamline workflows, and reduce the need for added scrubbing or re-cleaning.
Safe, Sustainable and Compliant
Formulated with biodegradable surfactants and free of hazardous ingredients, Spec Clean™ Pre-treatment Gel Spray supports infection prevention goals and sustainability initiatives. Its neutral pH helps reduce the risk of instrument corrosion, especially during longer delays between use and reprocessing—without compromising safety or environmental standards.
