Effect of AHP Disinfectants on Cage Integrity Conclusion: Facilities should avoid using AHP-based disinfectants (like Peroxigard) on polycarbonate cages when autoclaving is required. Phenolic disinfectants or 70% ethanol appear to be safer alternatives for maintaining cage integrity in high containment settings.

Texas researchers discovered why expensive polycarbonate cages were failing much earlier than expected.
