Introduction In Nigerian hospitals, patient care, equipment reliability, and infection control all depend on strict hygiene and precise procedures. One of the most overlooked but absolutely essential components in delivering safe, high-quality care is medical-grade distilled water. While ordinary tap water may suffice for general cleaning, it contains minerals, microbes, and impurities that can compromise lab tests, damage sterilization equipment, and affect patient safety. That’s why lead …

Introduction In medical laboratories, precision is everything. Whether it's preparing reagents, cleaning instruments, or running diagnostic tests, the quality of every input directly affects the accuracy of results. One of the most overlooked, yet essential inputs in any lab is water specifically, distilled water. While ordinary tap or bottled water might be suitable for everyday use, it contains minerals, salts, and other impurities that can interfere with sensitive laboratory procedures. That& …

Introduction In healthcare settings, water quality is not just important, it’s critical. From cleaning surgical instruments to preparing laboratory reagents, the type of water used can directly impact patient safety, equipment lifespan, and test accuracy. While tap water may be suitable for everyday cleaning, it often contains minerals, bacteria, and dissolved solids that make it unsuitable for medical use. As a result, two purified water types are often considered: distilled water and dem …

Introduction Inverter and car batteries are vital for daily life and business operations across Nigeria especially with the country's erratic power supply. But while many people are aware that they need to "top up their battery water", few understand the serious consequences of using the wrong type of water. Using tap water or unfiltered water in your battery can lead to corrosion, plate damage, shortened battery life, and even complete failure of the battery system. That’s why the convers …
