GOJO Poster Presentation Wins the APIC 2011 William A. Rutala Award and Blue Ribbon Abstract Award

The APIC 2011 award recently honored GOJO Skin Care and Technology Scientist Sarah Edmonds, MS, for her abstract focusing on formulation excellence. Her paper, Comparative Efficacy of Commercially Available Alcohol-based Handrubs and WHO-Recommended Handrubs: Which is More Critical, Alcohol Content or Product Formulation? (Poster # 1569) was presented recently at the APIC 2011 Annual Conference in Baltimore.

The award, sponsored by Clorox, is given to a member whose abstract most closely reflects the excellence demonstrated by William A. Rutala, a world-renowned expert in disinfection, sterilization, and antisepsis. The Abstract Selection Subcommittee recognizes abstracts that demonstrate exemplary scientific merit and are of high interest and relevance to the infection control community.
