Anything
that has mass and occupies space is subjected to microbial metabolism. It’s
natural but creates havoc when this activity leads to undesirable contamination
of the same. Many industrial and commercial applications are prone to being a habitat
of micro-organisms owing to their varied operating conditions, which becomes a matter
of concern when it bears severe financial losses to the industries. Introduction
of bacteria, algae, fungi in a regular or closed system, disturbing their
natural operations is how a microbial contamination occurs. Mass dependency on
artificial resources is the primary reason for it but also its usage cannot be
avoided. So, a striking a balance between combating contaminants and minimizing
harmful byproducts is important for application sustainability.
Scientists
studied the deactivating effects that combination of Silver and Hydrogen
Peroxide manifests and the major revelation of such combined disinfectant was
about the toxicity of its components, residual effect and disinfection by
product formation. Toxicity of this combination was found to be very low with
prolonged residual effects and both, silver and hydrogen peroxide showed an exemplary
anti-microbial performance even at lower dosage concentrations. In fact, this synergistic
blend of Silver and Hydrogen Peroxide showed more cidal effects compared to other
regular disinfectants in use, exhibiting an all-round microbial elimination
without leaving behind any toxic residue over the application system.
Alstasan Silvox, an eco-friendly blend of hydrogen peroxide and silver, provides
high efficacy in killing harmful pathogens across multiple media (viz., air,
water, and surface) without leaving any kind of toxic residues on them. The key
ingredients to Silver Hydrogen Peroxide include Hydrogen Peroxide which is a
potent oxidizer, stabilized by the addition of antimicrobial Silver, that too
in its Nano form, adhered by many inert stabilizers, and catalysts.
How
does it work?
Hydrogen
Peroxide is a rapid oxidizing agent which when comes in contact with wall of micro-organisms, ruptures their total internal structure, forbidding further
replications. Once the microorganism is killed, the silver quickly stabilizes the
activities of peroxide without allowing it to break into oxygen and water. Hydrogen
Peroxide with stabilized Nano Silver exhibits excellent anti-bacterial and anti-fungal
properties, eliminating harmful micro-organisms and also prevents their further
replication, owing to the presence of silver which alters the DNA structure of
those micro-organism, inhibiting any kind of further reproduction. This
combination provides high efficacy in killing of bacteria, fungi, algae from
almost all possible applications such as soil, water, air and any hard surface.
