Ecolab Bioquell BQ-EMS Illustration with real components

Vehicle Decontamination for Emergency Medical Services

After a sick patient is transferred out of your emergency vehicle, how do you ensure that the space is clean and ready for the next patient? Bioquell offers a proven solution to bio-decontaminate the surfaces inside your EMS vehicles.


About Our Emergency Vehicle Bio-decontamination Solution

To bio-decontaminate the interior of an ambulance, this specialized Ecolab solution relies on a few important pieces of Bioquell technology:

Bioquell Image

This portable, lightweight, wireless system uses Bioquell Hydrogen Peroxide Sterilant* to produce hydrogen peroxide vapor, which achieves a 6-log sporicidal kill on exposed surfaces. This eliminates microbial life in the inanimate environment, including all forms of vegetative bacteria, bacterial spores, fungi, and viruses per the Title 40 of Code of Federal Regulations.

  • Depending on the size of your vehicle, a bio-decontamination cycle can be as fast as 45 minutes, start to finish
  • Proven compatibility with sensitive electronics. Compatibility documentation available upon request.
  • Doesn’t leave any residue or harsh odors behind

*EPA reg. no. 72372-1-86703

Find Bioquell biological indicators (BI), chemical indicators (CI) and 35% hydrogen peroxide.

Room Chemical Indicators (CIs) which help you confirm that a Bioquell cycle has achieved the expected vapor distribution and exposure performance. A chemical strip reacts to a Bioquell cycle and changes color to correlate with the cycle’s expected efficacy. For use in rooms and enclosed areas 10m3 and larger.

The BQ-EMS is equipped with a low-level hydrogen peroxide sensor, to verify that no vapor is leaking from the vehicle during the emergency bio-decontamination process. This sensor also helps to ensure the vehicle is safe to enter after a cycle.
