Product Overview
GERMEX is a balanced, stabilized blend of peroxygen compounds, surfactant, organic acids, and inorganic buffer system. GERMEX is recommended for use as a hard surface disinfectant in livestock production and transportation facilities. GERMEX delivers 99.9999% kill of numerous pathogens including 31 bacterial strains, 58 viruses, and 6 fungi with no evidence of resistance, eliminating the need to rotate disinfectants to avoid resistance buildup.
Mode of Action
- GERMEX oxidizes sulfur bonds in proteins and enzymes disrupting the function of the cell membrane causing rupturing of the cell wall.
- Effective against Viruses, Bacteria and fungi in industrial and agricultural/animal facilities
