UCARCIDE™ 25 Antimicrobial
UCARCIDE™ 25 Antimicrobial is a 25% glutaraldehyde product with outstanding performance and versatility. This product provides broad efficacy, is biodegradable and is also non-carcinogenic, non-persistent and non-bio-accumulative. This product is registered for antimicrobial use.
UCARCIDE™ 25 Antimicrobial and UCARCIDE™ 50 Antimicrobial are glutaraldehyde based products that have found widespread use in a variety of preservative applications.
UCARCIDE™ 25 Antimicrobial is a broad-spectrum biocide that is easily dissolved in water. Its biocidal activity is due to the ability of glutaraldehyde to react with the primary amines of the microbial cell wall, which prevents normal metabolic functions and result in cell death. UCARCIDE™ antimicrobials are effective in both acidic and basic systems. However, the rate of antimicrobial activity is dependent on several factors, including pH, time, temperature, and concentration.
Antimicrobial efficacy against bacteria, mold, and yeast at low use concentrations (0.01-0.1% active ingredient). Excellent compatibility with anionic, non-ionic, and cationic surfactants Biocidal activity over a broad pH and temperature range No odor at end-use concentrations Good chemical compatibility with many other antimicrobials High salt tolerance Complete solubility in water Formaldehyde-free
Problems Solved
Handling issues with highly concentrated glutaraldehyde Preservation gap against fungi and mold Slow acting biocidal products and preservatives Biocides' compatibility issues with cleaning products and laundry detergents
Applications
General preservative use in water-based industrial, institutional and consumer products Preservation of concentrates where effective preservation is needed after dilution Household cleaning products Laundry detergents Concrete admixtures
