Cleaning & Disinfecting Equipment

Due to EPA and FDA regulations, disinfectants cannot claim to be effective against parasites. As a result of the restrictions, Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide^® products do not carry a claim to inactivate parasites. However, the Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide^® surfactant package and superior cleaning abilities can help remove parasite eggs from surfaces and sequentially reduce the chance of transmission.

The Ready-To-Use product is a different formula than the Concentrate solution. Therefore, the Concentrate solution cannot simply be diluted to achieve the same contact times, efficacy claims, etc. as the Ready-To-Use. Overall, the solutions should be treated as different products with differing use instructions. For example, the Ready-To-Use solution has a 1 minute contact time for disinfection claims, while the Peroxigard Concentrate solution has a contact time as low as 5 minutes depending on the dilution.

No. The only active ingredient in Peroxigard^™ disinfectant products is low levels of hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide readily breaks down into oxygen and water once dry and no active residues will remain. Furthermore, on a dry surface, there will be no adverse reactions if a second disinfectant were to be applied. Overall, best practice is to utilize one chemistry in the facility for disinfection requirements to ensure compliance.
