STERIGENE PET SAFE CONCENTRATED DISINFECTANT

Can be safely used to clean areas used by pets, effective against Bacteria, viruses and fungi

Sterigene Pet Safe Concentrated Disinfectant is safe for pets and is a highly effective disinfectant commonly by veterinarians, kennels, catteries etc.

It is non-toxic, non-staining, non-irritant, non-tainting and non-corrosive when used as directed. Suitable for use on all surfaces, chairs, floors, walls and appliances. It is safe, flexible and economical to use.

SteriGENE® is available in two versions; green scented and clear non-scented

SteriGENE® is a mixture of halogenated tertiary anine and organic salts <15%, polymeric biguanide hydrochloride surface active agents corrosion inhibitor, chelating agents, stabilising agents and demineralised water. SteriGENE® is free of aldehydes, chlorine and phenols and is concentrated for on-site dilution.

It is well known that long chain quaternary compounds that possess the greatest antibacterial activity are those with at least one radical, with a C8 to C18 length carbon chain. It is also known that absorption plays an important role in the activity of disinfectant formulations. SteriGENE® disinfectant is highly surface active and is therefore readily absorbed. Because of the large relative surface area of particulate micro-organisms, the first stage of germicidal activity probably begins with the absorption of the disinfectant by the microbial cell. It has been observed that such absorption increased the permeability of the cell membrane; leading to rupture of the cell and the decrease of lysine and glutamic acid. The inclusion of dodecylamine and sulfamic acid in the formulation appears to stimulate the contraction of cytoplasm followed by complete stripping of the cell wall. A second mode of action proposed is that cell death results from inactivation of energy-producing enzymes such as those concerned with glucose, succinate and pyruvate oxidase systems. As with glutaraldehyde and similar toxic substances, the exact mode has not been fully elucidated. However, using standard biocidal tests, this formulation has been shown to be highly effective. SteriGENE® works up to 70% quicker than conventional high level disinfectants with the inclusion of micro-emulsion particles (nano particles) that enable the active ingredient molecules in the product to be carried rapidly through cell walls of micro-organisms.

Nano particles can enter areas like microscopic fissures and crevices in hard surfaces which up to now have not been penetrable by conventional carrier systems. Disinfectant actives are able to spread across a complete surface area, to perform a far more thorough anti pathogenic cleansing task than was previously possible.
