Staph Control? is a colorless and odorless disinifectant/fungicide/virucide
used to kill potentially dangerous organisms such as Salmonella
choleraesuis, HIV type 1-strain HTLV IIIB and Staphylococcous
aureus (multiple strains of staph including MRSA). Among the
many benefits of this product, unlike any other product on the
market today, Staph Control? is safe to use around people and
pets with no rinsing or wiping down after application.
Features
What is Silver Dihydrogen Citrate (SDC)
SDC (Silver Dihydrogen Citrate) is a compound that was
in development for nearly ten years. How it works is through
the generation of silver ions as the product of the
disassociation of the weak organic acid (citric acid),
contained in SDC, binding to particular active sites on
microbial proteins where those sites contain thio groups.
Once SDC is introduced to the microbial environment it
functions the following two ways; when the silver ions bind
to the microbial cell membrane proteins' active sites (thio
groups), the microbial membrane malfunctions allowing more
silver ions inside the microbial organism. The microorganism
dies due to cell lysis and/or cessation of metabolic
function membrane proteins. When the silver ions enter the
microorganism through the malfunctioned cell membrane or as
an essential nutrient since the microorganism needs citric
acid for cell activities, the silver then starts to unfold
the microbes' DNA strands rendering it dysfunctional. This
stops metabolic and reproductive functions and the microbe
will then die.
The toxicity rating of this SDC based
solution is non-toxic, non-caustic, colorless, odorless, and
tasteless and does not produce toxic fumes. While SDC is
highly toxic to bacteria, fungus and viruses, it is
non-toxic to humans and animals. Based on the EPA toxicity
categorization of antimicrobial products, there are
categories that range from Category I down to Category IV.
Silver Dihydrogen Citrate is rated in the lowest toxicity
Category IV while traditional disinfectants fall into
Categories I & II. SDC is a stabilized silver ion complex
with a shelf life of several years. There are other silver
based disinfectants, but their shelf life is much sorter.
The form of silver in SDC allows the ionized silver to
remain in solution which makes it biologically active for
antimicrobial action. One of the most important functions of
this product is the 24 hour residual effectiveness which
most common household and industrial sanitizing solutions
may not possess. Most products on the market take up to ten
minutes to kill these harmful bacteria, but Staph Control
takes less than 2 minutes to disinfect and does not require
rinsing which is especially remarkable since the active
ingredient in this solution is environmentally green where
the manufacturing process produces zero discharge and no
waste or byproducts.
