Minncare Cold Sterilant is a peracetic acid solution specifically designed for the disinfection of reverse osmosis (RO) membranes and their distribution systems. It effectively addresses both short- and long-term bacterial contamination by oxidizing microbial cell proteins and enzyme systems, achieving a 6 log reduction of bacteria at a 1% dilution within 36 minutes. This product can potentially eliminate the need for acid cleaning of fouled membranes when transiti on metals are absent, thereby enhancing the longevity of RO membranes. The sterilant is biodegradable, decomposing into oxygen, water, and acetic acid, making it safe for municipal waste treatment systems. It is compatible with thin film composite membranes and cellulose acetate membranes, ensuring thorough cleaning without the adverse effects associated with formaldehyde. Additionally, Minncare Cold Sterilant does not produce toxic aldehyde vapors, providing a safer working environment when used as directed. Proper handling is required for concentrated forms, but the diluted solution does not necessitate exceptional handling procedures.
MinncareCold Sterilant is a peracetic acid solution developed for use on reverse osmosis (RO) membranes and their associated distribution systems. Peracetic acid formulations were developed by Minntech Corporation in 1976 and are currently being used in a wide variety of applications. Mar Cor Purifi cation distributes Minncare Cold Sterilant to the Medical, Pharmaceutical and Industrial Marketplace.
