- Amount to Use
The product should be added to the system as early in the process as possible. The concentration required to adequately preserve your product depends on several factors. These include the susceptibility of the system to microbiological degradation, the extent to which microorganisms can gain access, the species involved, pH, temperature and length of time for which protection is required.
A range of concentrations and applications is suggested in Table; however, it is recommended that a testing program be performed to determine the most cost-effective dose for your application. Testing should take into account chemical compatibility / stability, plant hygiene conditions, susceptibility of the product to contamination and the typical organisms involved.

- Antimicrobial Properties
The levels of product needed to prevent the growth of problem micro-organisms are listed in Table 1; Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations (MICs) do not represent effective use levels but do indicate the broad spectrum of activity.
PROXEL XL2 Antimicrobial has a non-specific mode of action which means that bacterial resistance is very unlikely to occur. Detailed information on the mode of action is available on request.- Compatability
Compatible and effective over pH range 4-12. Stable in the presence of amines. Incompatible with some oxidizing and reducing agents e.g. persalts, sulphites, etc.
