Anti-Microbial Solution

Pearl OX^TM is an FDA registered peroxyacetic acid-based sanitizer and disinfectant. The active ingredients in Pearl OX^TM are Peracetic Acid and Hydrogen Peroxide. Peracetic acid (PAA) sanitizer was developed in Europe years ago and is now used throughout the world. It is environmentally compatible and considered to be non-polluting. A 99.999% microbial kill is achieved at a normal use rate of 80 ppm with a contact time of one (1) minute. Upon degradation, PAA breaks down to water, oxygen and vinegar (acetic acid). It is virtually odor free at end use concentrations and there are no known hazardous or toxic by-products associated with its use.

Unlike chlorine, Pearl OX^TM, with the active ingredient of PAA, does not contain halogens. Its non-corrosive characteristics also allow for greater contact time. and compatibility with stainless steel or processing equipment.

Pearl OX^TM is not considered to be pH sensitive and functions very well under cold conditions near 4 degrees C. It does not lose its activity and can be used with short contact times as well.

Applications

Pearl OX^TM is intended to be used in food processing applications. Pearl OX^TM is to be applied to red meat carcasses, red meat carcass parts/trim, or red meat organs through spraying, submersion, or both. Pearl OX^TM is applied to poultry as a rinse, dip, spray, in chiller water, or scald water. Additionally, Pearl OX^TM can be used in pre-formed poultry and/or meat, fish and/or seafood, fruits and/or vegetables.

Pearl OX^TM exhibits an antimicrobial effect that reduces the presence and population of pathogenic and nonpathogenic microorganisms that may be present while subsequently retarding the spoilage of red meat and poultry. Application of this product occurs with the directive to provide safer food commodities as defined in the 21 CFR 170.3 to consumers.

PROXITANE® (EPA Registered), a highly effective biocide and oxidizing agent, rapidly destroys microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi and viruses and kills pathogens.

While it is extremely performant, PROXITANE® is chlorine free and breaks down quickly into naturally occurring substances (water, oxygen and carbon dioxide) ౼ making it a sustainable, environmentally friendly choice.

For these reasons, PROXITANE® is the ideal disinfectant across a number of different industries, namely medical, food and drink, animal biosecurity and industrial laundry.
