Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of biological decontamination.
- the invention finds particular application in connection with the removal and/or destruction of harmful biological materials, such as prions (proteinaceous-infectious agents), from medical, dental, and pharmaceutical instruments and will be described with particular reference thereto. It will be appreciated, however, that the method and system of the present invention may be utilized in biological decontamination of a wide range of equipment, instruments, and other surfaces contaminated with prion infected material, such as pharmaceutical preparation facilities, food processing facilities, laboratory animal research facilities including floors, work surfaces, equipment, cages, fermentation tanks, fluid lines, and the like.
- TSEs transmissible spongiform encephalopathies
- CJD Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease
- vCJD variant CJD
- BSE Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy
- All of these diseases attack the neurological organs of the animal or animals which are susceptible to the particular disease. They are characterized by initially long incubation times followed by a short period of neurological symptoms, including dementia and loss of coordination, and eventually death.
- the infectious agent responsible for these diseases is thought to be a simple protein, with no associated nucleic acids.
- the pathogenic mechanism for such prion diseases is proposed to involve an initially normal host encoded protein.
- the protein undergoes a conformational change to an abnormal form (a prion), which has the ability of self-propagation.
- the exact cause of this change is, at present, unknown.
- the abnormal form of the protein is not broken down effectively in the body and its accumulation in certain tissues (in particular neural tissue) eventually causes tissue damage, such as cell death. Once significant neural tissue damage has occurred, the clinical signs are observed.
- Prion diseases may thus be classified as protein aggregation diseases, which also include several other fatal diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease and amyloidosis.
- CJD the most prevalent prion disease in humans (occurring in roughly 1:1,000,000 of the population), about 85% of cases are thought to arise sporadically, about 10% are thought to be inherited, and about 5% arise iatrogenically.
- prion diseases can be transmitted by certain high-risk tissues, including the brain, spinal cord, cerebral spinal fluids, and the eye. Iatrogenic transmission has been reported during several procedures, including dura-mater grafting, corneal transplants, pericardial homografts, and through human gonadotropin and human growth hormone contamination. Transmission via medical devices has also been reported, including from neurosurgical instruments, depth electrodes, and other devices used for surgical procedures in close proximity to the central nervous system. Concerns are being raised that procedures previously considered to be “low risk” in terms of prion infection, such as tonsillectomy and dental procedures, may pose unacceptable risks of infection, particularly, if the incidence of prion-related diseases increases.
- prion containing residue may remain on the surgical instruments, particularly neurosurgical and ophthalmological instruments. During the long incubation period, it is extremely difficult to determine whether a surgical candidate is a prion carrier.
- sanitizing connotes free from dirt or germs by cleaning.
- Disinfecting calls for cleansing in order to destroy harmful microorganisms.
- Sterilization the highest level of biological contamination control, connotes the destruction of all living microorganisms.
- Prions are notoriously very hardy and demonstrate resistance to routine methods of decontamination and sterilization. Unlike microorganisms, prions have no DNA or RNA to destroy or disrupt. Prions, due to their hydrophobic nature, tend to aggregate together in insoluble clumps. Under many conditions that lead to successful sterilization of microorganisms, prions form tighter clumps, which protect themselves and underlying prions from the sterilization process.
- the present invention provides a new and improved method of treatment of surfaces contaminated with prion-infected material, which overcomes the above-referenced problems and others.
- a method of treating a body which is contaminated with prions includes contacting the body with a composition comprising a phenol to inactivate prions on the body.
- a method of determining the effectiveness of a phenol-based decontaminant composition on a material which is contaminated with prions includes combining a solution of the phenol-based decontaminant with a protein material, determining a measure of the phenol taken up by the material, and determining the effectiveness of the composition based on the amount of phenol taken up.
- One advantage of the present invention is that it is gentle on instruments.
- Another advantage of the present invention is that it deactivates prions quickly and effectively.
- Another advantage of the present invention is that it is compatible with a wide variety of materials and devices.
- the invention may take form in various components and arrangements of components, and in various steps and arrangements of steps.
- the drawings are only for purposes of illustrating a preferred embodiment and are not to be construed as limiting the invention.

- P c is defined as the calculated octanol-water partition coefficient. Higher Log P c values indicate the substance is more hydrophobic.
- Software available for determining P c values is available for example from Advanced Chemistry Development Software.
- Preferably at least one of the phenols in the composition has a Log P c value of at least 2.5, more preferably, at least about 3, and up to about 6.0, as measured by the ACD software method. It has been found that the higher the Log P value (more hydrophobic) the more phenol is absorbed.

- the total molar phenol concentration of the concentrate is about 0.1M-11.0M, or greater, more preferably, about 0.2M, or greater, and most preferably, about 0.5M, or greater.
- Effective compositions which destroy at least 99% of harmful proteins (e.g., prions) have been formulated with total phenol concentrations of about 0.2M-0.5M, or greater.
- composition may also include other ingredients, depending on the specific application. Suitable ingredients include sequestering agents for removing water hardness salts, cosolvents, surfactants, corrosion inhibitors, buffering agents, and the like.

- Suitable cosolvents include polyols containing only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms.
- Exemplary polyols are C 2 to C 6 polyols, such as 1,2-propanediol, 1,2-butanediol, hexylene glycol, glycerol, sorbitol, mannitol, and glucose.
- Higher glycols, polyglycols, polyoxides and glycol ethers are also contemplated as co-solvents.

Combinations of co-solvents may be used.
- the polyol is preferably present as a concentration of at least 10%, more preferably, at least 20% and can be up to 40%.

- the composition may also include one or more soluble inorganic salts, such as sodium chloride.
- Sodium chloride has been found to increase the effectiveness of certain phenols, particularly those which are not halogenated, such as OPP, while the effect on halogenated phenols, such as PCMX, is less marked.
- An exemplary concentrate composition is as follows: Ingredient % by Weight of Composition Water Q.S., typically, about 35.0% Sequestering agent, e.g., Glycolic acid 0-25%, preferably, about 18.0 Surfactants, e.g., Dodecylbenzene 2-10%, preferably, about 7.0% Sulphonic acid Sodium C 14 -C 16 3-10%, preferably, about 6.0% Sulfonate Cosolvent, e.g., Hexylene Glycol 10-40%, preferably about 24.0% Phenols, e.g., OBPCOP 2-15%, preferably, about 9.0% OBPCOP 0.2-5%, preferably about 1.0%

- Surfactants e.g., Dodecylbenzene 2-10%, preferably, about 7.0% Sulphonic acid Sodium C 14 -C 16 3-10%, preferably, about 6.
- At least some of the OBPCOP or OBPCOP is replaced with a phenol which is more effective than either of these phenols, such as PCMX.
- Such a composition has been shown to be effective against prion-contaminated surfaces when diluted to a concentration of 1% by weight of the concentrate in water. While the mechanism of inactivating prions is not fully understood, it is contemplated that the phenol may form a complex with the prion protein, rendering it harmless. The prion is then unable to replicate to produce further prions. Studies by the inventors suggest that the phenol generally does not break down the prion. It is proposed that a change in the three dimensional structure of the prion protein results from interactions with the phenol, inactivating the prion.
- composition is compatible with a wide range of surfaces, as compared with conventional prion treatments, such as high temperatures or high concentrations of sodium hypochlorite or sodium hydroxide.
- the composition may be applied in a variety of ways, including by spraying, coating, immersion, or the like.
- the composition is applied in the form of a gel.
- a thickening agent such as a natural or modified cellulose, is added to the formulation to increase the viscosity.
- the composition may be applied at room temperature, although higher temperatures are preferred. It has been found that by heating the composition to at least 30° C., more preferably, around 40° C., or above, a substantial shortening in the time required for inactivation of prions is achieved.
- a prion model e.g., a protein such as bovine serum albumin (BSA) may be used to evaluate formulations.
- BSA bovine serum albumin
- a preferred prion model is an ileal fluid dependant organism (IFDO).
- IFDO's were identified by Burdon, et al. (Burdon, J. Med. Micro., 29: 145-157 (1989)) and described as being similar to prions in many respects, e.g., in resistance to disinfection and sterilization methods. Due to the ability to culture IFDO's artificially and detect them in the laboratory they provide a good model system for studying the effect of decontamination processes on prion inactivation.
- the IFDOs are artificially cultured in a modified Mycoplasma base broth (Oxoid) and quantified by serial dilutions and plating on a similar agar.
- the efficacy of the decontamination formulations is preferably studied by suspension testing at room temperature at about a 1% dilution of the concentrate composition in water, simulating use of the composition. Following suitable contact times, aliquots are sampled and quantified by serial dilution and plating into modified Mycoplasma agar.
- the plates are preferably incubated at about 37° C. for several hours, preferably about 48 hours. The plates are examined and the number of colonies visible are counted.
- Log reductions may then be determined (log reduction is a measure of the number of organisms removed expressed as the difference between the Log 10 of the initial number of organisms minus the Log 10 of the number of organisms after treatment. E.g., a 6 log reduction means that out of one million initial organisms a maximum of one remains after treatment).
- BSA bovine serum albumin
- solubility of the phenol in the composition has an effect on the degree to which the protein is complexed.
- the lower the solubility of the phenol in the formulation the greater the degree of complexation—i.e., the more effective the phenol formulation is at prion inactivation.
- Solubility is affected by the choice of phenol and the type and concentrations of other ingredients in the formulation, e.g., the solvents and cosolvents used.
- compositions I-VII are listed in Table 1.
- Composition I is a commercial formulation, LpHTM.
- the IFDOs are artificially cultured in a modified Mycoplasma broth and quantified by serial dilutions and plating on a similar agar.
- the efficacy of the compositions I-VII is studied by suspension testing at room temperature at a 1% dilution of the composition in water. Following a suitable contact time, e.g., 10 minutes, aliquots are sampled and quantified by serial dilution and plating into modified Mycoplasma agar. Following incubation at 37° C. for 48 hours, the plates are evaluated by counting visible colonies and log reductions are determined. Results with the compositions are compared with an existing phenolic product are shown in Table 1.
- Formulation XIV with 2,4,5-Trichlorophenol achieved the greatest Log Reduction (4.9) better than the Log Reduction (4.0) achieved with LpH.
- P c is defined as the calculated octanol-water partition coefficient.
- the log P c values are calculated using two methods. The first method uses Alchemy 2000 Molecular Modeling Software (Tripos) along with a data set developed by STERIS Corporation. The second method uses Advanced Chemistry Development (ACD) Software Solaris v4.67 ( ⁇ 1994-2002 ACD). The calculated log P c values for each phenol are shown in TABLE 3: These values are compared with Log reduction colonies obtained in Example 2.
- FIG. 1 shows the Log IFDO reduction vs Log P c (Alchemy 2000) and the Log P c (ACD) values.
- the correlation between the Log P c (Alchemy 2000) and the Log P c (ACD) values is shown in FIG. 2 .
- phenols having a log P c value between 2 and 6.5 display enhanced activity.
- the phenols in the LpHTM product were found to be the most significant requirement for efficacy and were rated as OBPCP>>OPP>PTAP. When tested with equivocal concentrations of these phenols, the optimal combinations were shown to be formulation containing either OPBCP or OPP; PTAP was less effective.
- the IFDO's are artificially cultured in a modified Mycoplasma broth and quantified by serial dilutions and plating on a similar agar.
- the effect of temperature on phenol formulation activity is studied by suspension testing at a 1% dilution of the composition in water at various temperatures (20 and 40 ° C.) Following 5, 10, 15 and 20 minute contact times, aliquots are sampled and quantified by serial dilution and plating into modified Mycoplasma agar. After incubation at 37° C. for 48 hours, the plates are evaluated by counting visible colonies and log reductions are determined. Results comparing the phenol composition (LpH) at 20 and 40° C. are shown in FIG. 3 .
- IFDO levels were reduced to below detectable levels (i.e., greater than 1 Log) in 5 minutes at 40° C., as compared to 15 minutes at 20° C.
- Phenol solutions with different phenols were prepared as follows: about 1.38 grams of a mixture of a phenol with solubilizers, such as anionic surfactants, an organic acid, isopropyl alcohol, glycols, and an amine was dissolved in 99 mL of water to form a solution containing a total phenol concentration of 4 mM. About 1 g of BSA was added to the phenol solution to give a concentration of about 0.15 mM BSA (the molecular weight of BSA is presumed to be about 66,000 Daltons). The solution was stirred for 15 minutes and then centrifuged at 1800 rpm for five minutes. Aliquots were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). FIG.
- HPLC high performance liquid chromatography
- Example 5 The percentages of initial concentration absorbed from Example 5 were plotted against the HPLC retention time of the phenol. FIG. 5 shows the correlation between these values. A correlation coefficient of 0.81 was obtained, suggesting that HPLC retention time is a fairly good predictor of the absorption of phenol by the protein.
