impact the scan result. 

7.2.6. How frequently can the Semmelweis Scanner be used? 

The  UV  dye  can  accumulate  on  the  skin  and  produce  fluorescent  signal  up  to  48  hours 
(depending on the frequency of hand washing). Before repeated usage of the Product test your 
hands for remaining fluorescence. We recommend at least 5 regular soap & water hand washes 
between two measurements, or 24 passed hours. 

7.2.7. Jewellery and watches 

According to the current clinical protocols, no jewellery can be worn by healthcare employees 
(the only exception found in some institutions is the wedding ring). Proper disinfection under 
rings cannot be achieved without removing them. (

Trick, William E., et al. „Impact of Ring 

Wearing on Hand Contamination and Comparison of Hand Hygiene Agents in a Hospital.” 
Clinical infectious diseases 36.11 (2003): 1383-1390.

7.2.8. Using sunscreens 

Do not apply sunscreens and photoprotective lotions before using the Semmelweis Scanner. 

The sunscreen absorbs the UV-A light used by the scanner.
