As a manufacturer operating four production facilities and 7,800 square meters of cleanroom space, LucentMed supplies endoscope cleaning brushes to customers worldwide. This product line offers comprehensive customization options and is designed to remove residual tissue debris, mucus, blood, and other contaminants from areas such as endoscope working channels, suction channels, and biopsy channels.
The Endoscope Cleaning Brush cleans by creating frictional contact between the flexible bristles on the brush head and the walls of the endoscope's internal channels. The operational process is as follows:
1. Slowly insert the cleaning brush into the endoscope channel opening;
2. Advance the brush head into the working channel;
3. Move the brush back and forth to dislodge and remove adherent contaminants;
4. Withdraw the brush and proceed with subsequent cleaning and disinfection steps.
This mechanical cleaning method effectively removes stubborn biological contaminants—such as biofilms—from the interior of the endoscope.

The Endoscope Cleaning Brush features a flexible bristle design that reaches deep into the endoscope's working channel. Through mechanical scrubbing, it effectively removes residual blood, mucus, tissue debris, and protein deposits.
The product utilizes medical-grade, flexibly arranged bristles that provide consistent cleaning power while minimizing abrasion on the delicate walls of the endoscope, making it ideal for long-term equipment maintenance.
To meet diverse equipment requirements, LucentMed offers solutions tailored to different endoscope models, featuring various brush head diameters, working lengths, and single- or double-ended configurations.
Designed with a flexible guidewire structure, the brush inserts smoothly and offers superior flexibility during the cleaning process. It navigates easily through narrow endoscope channels, reducing operational resistance.
When brushing the biopsy channel and the suction channel of the light guide tube, the brush head must emerge from the opposite end; debris on the brush head must be cleaned off, and the brushing process repeated until no visible contaminants remain.
Reusable models: Must be cleaned and undergo high-level disinfection immediately after use (disinfection after every use); do not reuse brushes that have not been disinfected.
Disposable models: Discard immediately after use; do not reuse.
The endoscope cleaning brush must be used in conjunction with an enzymatic detergent or a specialized endoscope cleaning solution. The enzymatic activity loosens organic and inorganic debris adhering to the endoscope, facilitating its removal by the cleaning agent and subsequent rinsing water.
