Maintaining medical instruments in perfect working condition is one of the most essential responsibilities within hospitals, CSSDs, clinics, and surgical centres. Whether it’s a simple diagnostic tool or a complex surgical instrument with hinges and box locks, its performance and more importantly, patient safety—depends on effective cleaning, lubrication, decontamination, and protection.
This is where instrument care chemicals play a critical role. High-quality cleaning and maintenance formulations ensure not only hygienic safety, but also sustained instrument performance, extended lifespan, and reduced replacement costs.
Miracle Industries, a trusted manufacturer in healthcare chemical solutions, offers three advanced products designed to address different stages of instrument care:
This blog explores why these chemicals are vital, how they work, and how they elevate modern healthcare hygiene and workflow efficiency.
Why Instrument Care Chemicals Matter in Healthcare
Healthcare instruments are repeatedly exposed to harsh conditions, blood, proteins, organic tissue, disinfectants, and high-temperature sterilization cycles. Over time, these factors may cause:
- Corrosion and rusting
- Stiff movement in hinges and locks
- Organic residue build-up
- Decrease in instrument lifespan
- Inefficient sterilization
- Increased risk of contamination
Proper chemical care significantly reduces these risks. A structured chemical regimen protects the metal surface, prevents oxidation, and ensures thorough organic breakdown before sterilization.

1. MIRACLE Instrument Lubricant: Protection During Autoclaving & Daily Use
Surgical instruments undergo mechanical stress every day. Hinged instruments like forceps, scissors, pliers, and box-lock tools need regular lubrication to avoid friction damage.
Key Benefits
- Natural Corrosion Inhibitor
Helps prevent rust and oxidation during repeated sterilization cycles. - Smooth Movement of Hinges and Box Locks
Reduces friction, prolongs tool efficiency. - Extends Instrument Life
Forms a protective micro-coating on the metal surface. - Bacteriostatic Formula
Helps prevent bacterial growth during handling.
Why Hospitals Need It
During autoclaving, moisture exposure can worsen corrosion. MIRACLE Instrument Lubricant provides a protective layer to ensure:
- Smooth function
- Reduced wear & tear
- Higher longevity of expensive surgical tools
For hospital procurement teams, this reduces overall operational cost and improves instrument reliability.
2. Miracle Rust Stain Remover: Restoring Metal Surfaces to Pristine Quality
Even well-maintained instruments may eventually show rusting, brown stains, or discoloration due to:
- Exposure to saline
- Improper drying
- Water contaminants
- High-heat sterilization
- Residual chemicals
Miracle Rust Stain Remover offers a cost-effective and highly efficient way to restore instruments without abrasive scrubbing.
Why It’s Effective
- Dissolves rust and stubborn stains quickly
- Enhances surface appearance
- Prevents further deterioration
- No rinsing required after drying
- Safe for regular maintenance
How to Use
Soaking Method
- Mix 100 ml of solution with 900 ml water
- Soak instruments for 15 minutes
- Air-dry — no rinsing required
Brush Application
- Apply diluted solution with a brush
- Let sit for 10 minutes
- Brush again
- Allow natural drying
This gentle yet powerful formulation brings back the original shine and ensures instruments remain safe for clinical use.
3. Cleanze Ideal Multienzyme Cleaner: The Power of Enzymes for Modern CSSDs
One of the most critical steps in instrument reprocessing is the removal of organic matter before sterilization. Organic residues such as blood, fat, tissue, and proteins can shield microbes from high-temperature sterilization—making cleaning the most vital stage.
This is where Cleanze Ideal Multienzyme Cleaner stands apart.
Multi-Enzyme Technology
Cleanze contains a scientifically crafted blend of enzymes that break down:
- Proteins
- Blood stains
- Fats & lipids
- Organic secretions
- Tissue residues
Each enzyme targets a different type of organic matter, ensuring complete cleaning even in hard-to-reach areas such as:
- Hinges
- Lumen instruments
- Endoscopes
- Respiratory equipment
- Delicate glass instruments
Why Choose Enzyme-Based Cleaners?
- Highly efficient on organic contaminants
- Material-safe (pH-neutral)
- Suitable for high-value instruments
- Works in manual, ultrasonic & automatic washers
- Faster cleaning cycles
Usage Instructions
- Mix 5–10 ml of Cleanze per liter of water
- Soak instruments for 5–15 minutes
- Rinse & prepare for sterilization
Cleanze also works on medical fabrics like scrubs and linens, removing difficult stains without damaging fibers.
