1778.
Disinfection
of
Rooms.
Any
room,
however
offensive
it
may
be,
can
be
perfectively
deodorized
by
means
of
a
few
trays
filled
with
a
thin
layer
of
freshly-heated
wood
charcoal.
From
these
and
other
considerations
it
is
evident
that
charcoal
is
one
of
the
cheapest
and
best
disinfectants.
Unlike
many
other
disinfectants,
it
evolves
no
disagreeable
vapours,
and
if
heated
in
close
vessels
will
always
act,
however
long
it
has
been
in
use,
quite
as
effectively
as
at
first.
The
efficiency
of
the
charcoal
may
be
greatly
increased
by
making
it
red-hot
before
using
it.
This
can
easily
be
done
by
heating
it
in
an
iron
saucepan
covered
with
an
iron
lid.
When
the
charcoal
is
to
be
applied
to
inflammable
substances,
such
as
wooden
floors,
&c.,
of
course
it
must
be
allowed
to
cool
in
close
vessels
before
being
used.
1779.
Sir
William
Burnett's
Disinfecting
Fluid.
Of
late
years
new
disinfectants
for
the
removal
of
disagreeable
and
offensive
odours,
and
the
preservation
of
meat,
&c.,
have
been
brought
into
use.
Sir
William
Burnett's
disinfecting
fluid
is
too
well
known
to
require
description.
It
is
invaluable
in
a
sick
room,
and
is
sold
by
all
chemists
and
druggists.
1780.
Glacialine.
This
is
a
new
disinfectant
and
antiseptic,
which
is
highly
recommended
and
largely
used
for
the
preservation
of
meats,
liquids,
and
all
goods
of
a
perishable
character
from
acidity,
as
in
the
case
of
beer,
or
decomposition.
It
is
sold
by
most
chemists,
druggists,
and
oilmen.
