    Abstract: An antimicrobial composition, generally comprising a biocidal agent, such as chlorhexidine gluconate, a lubricant, such as a modified siloxane, and a solvent, such as an alcohol and/or water. The biocidal agent acts as a highly effective biocide while the lubricant reduces friction between various components of a medical device during assembly. The antimicrobial composition may be applied to an internal component of the medical device prior to assembly. The process of assembling the medical device results in antimicrobial composition being distributed to various internal structures and geometries of the medical device as the coated, internal component is assembled into the interior of the medical device. Air is then used to further distribute excess antimicrobial agent to the remaining surfaces downstream from the installed, internal component. In some embodiments, additional air is passed through the assembled medical device to assist in removing the carrier solvent from the medical device via evaporation.
