combining hydrogen peroxide with dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride?

[mtgrl]

Dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride and alkyl are the active ingredients in Lysol wipes, and I used them to wipe off my tablet, and later used hydrogen peroxide to wipe it off. I was wondering if possibly using different cleansing agents on the same object could cause adverse effects, like maybe they could react and become toxic? Please let me know if I should be concerned about this combination (I wiped it down with soap and water after, but I'm not sure that's sufficient to remove all residue) thanks!

I'm sure one of our chemists will chime in, but I did notice that Lysol makes wipes that have H2O2 in them instead of benzyl ammonium chloride. That's not to say that they don't mix well, though. It could just mean both would be redundant, since only one active microbial is needed.

Not quite.

Alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride is the ingredient in the wipes. (one compound with a five part name)

Anyway, I can't think of any credible reaction product from that quaternary compound, and hydrogen peroxide that would be significantly toxic.

OK, thank you!
