- Formulation and Action Spectrum
The high peracetic acid content and exclusive stabilization make it a top quality disinfectant. Reproduction of the formulation is guaranteed thanks to registration as a medical device. The validation of Detarox AP documents its high efficiency against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, yeast and mold, with the consequent need for significantly less product even with reduce temperature, concentration and contact time; written data is also available proving the effectiveness of the active substances in Detarox AP in the inactivation of viruses and spores. Biocide action was tested in accordance with UNI EN standards 1040, 1275, 1276 and 1650.
- In the Food Sector
Detarox AP is non-corrosive on a wide range of materials including stainless steel, aluminum and many kinds of plastic. Compared to other active substances, Detarox AP is less influenced by the presence of organic substances and the hardness of the water used and is still effective even at low temperatures.
- Method of Use and Dosage
- The recommended concentration of Detarox AP depends on both the required temperature and contact time:
- 0.3-0.5% at 10-20°C for 5 min.
- 0.1-0.2% at 10-20°C for 10 min.
- 0.1% at 10-20°C for 30 min.
- 0.05-0.08% at 30-40°C for 10 min.
- After disinfection, rinse thoroughly until the product has been completely removed.
- Stability of Mother Solutions and Usage
The action of the mother solution is stable for more than 9 months under the recommended storage conditions: this means that cheaper packs can be used with the guarantee that the disinfectant will always be perfectly effective. The stability of the usage solution has been documented for up to 160 hours following preparation: besides use as a load-destroying solution, this parameter is vital when Detarox AP is used as a bacteriostatic solution for bottling. For these reasons and others besides, it is particularly suitable for use in the food, fish and fish farming sectors, where it is especially recommended for disinfecting goods, systems and equipment.
