Joint research was conducted in the Journal of Hospital Infection by the University of Hong Kong and Queen Mary Hospital using Dermodacyn Disinfecting solution, a medical-grade solution manufactured by Sonoma and marketed in Hong Kong by Sonoma partner Microderm Technologies Limited.   The study found that Dermodacyn Disinfecting solution significantly decreased the viability of SARS-CoV-2 against other laboratory and domestic disinfectants that are widely used.
