VIRKON Aquatic

Complete Aerial, Water System & Surface Disinfectant Virkon AQUATIC is a balanced and synergistic blend of ingredients manufactured to internationally recognized standards, with utmost precision. The powerful, broad spectrum formulation of Virkon AQUATIC has been scientifically developed to address and meet the pathogen control needs of modern fish and shrimp farmed production. Some disinfectants, while effective against pathogens, can have a negative residual toxicological effects on surfaces and equipment. Virkon®AQUATIC′s oxygen-based chemistry contains organic salts and acids, and its active ingredient decomposes rapidly by a variety of routes within the environment, breaking down to form the naturally occurring substances, potassium salts and oxygen.

FORMULATED DISINFECTION POWER BACKED BY SCIENCE

As with pharmaceutical products, disinfectants with similar chemistry can have widely different performance characteristics when it comes to breadth of efficacy and the toxicological effects they have.

Therefore, selecting the correct disinfectant for continuous and terminal biosecurity applications is critical to help prevent and control disease challenges being introduced onto or spread around a modern fish or shrimp production site.

The disinfectant must have independently proven efficacy against a wide range of aquaculture pathogens and be effective at low temperatures.

VIRKON AQUATIC OFFERS:

Complex modern chemistry
Proven efficacy data sets and toxicological studies
Prevention against disease introduction and spread

OPERATIONAL BENEFITS

BECAUSE VIRKON AQUATIC SIMPLY OFFERS MORE

Superior operator safety

Extensive investment has been made to assess the safety of Virkon AQUATIC users. The assessment demonstrates that Virkon AQUATIC is not corrosive to skin and does not cause sensitisation. A typical in-use dilution of 1:100 (1%) has been shown to be non-irritating to skin and eyes, and is not a sensitising agent.

Effective low-temperature performance

The ability of a disinfectant to work well at low temperatures contributes to the value of its use on a daily basis. It is well established that the efficacy of disinfectants can decrease as temperature decreases. Further, it has been shown that formaldehyde exhibits reduced biocide performance when the temperature is lowered. Conversely, Virkon AQUATIC maintains activity against various viruses at 4°C.
