Unrivalled spectrum
Built-in colour indicator of strength
Resistant to inactivation by organic material
Contains a surfactant - combines cleaning and disinfection in one operation
Avoids the problems of pre-cleaning which spreads infection
Tablets are convenient to store and easy to handle
Virkon™ S was originally developed to specifically address the practical biosecurity requirements of modern-day farming and livestock production. The powerful capabilities of peroxygen-based chemistry in the formulation of Virkon™ S provide a broad spectrum of efficacy with specific focus against viral disease-causing organisms.
Formulated to overcome the problems of limited spectrum and limited activity exhibited by other disinfectants, Virkon™ S achieves deactivation and destruction of the target organism through a broad spectrum, non-selective range of oxidation reactions. Unlike other disinfectant chemistries, such as aldehydes, Virkon™ S does not exert a specific toxicological effect on the target organism and is proven to kill pathogens in seconds.
It is proven:
- To kill over 500 strains of viruses, bacteria, and funghi and yeasts
- Against Newcastle Disease virus, Avian Influenze virus, Salmonella, and Campylobacter
- To be a powerful, fast acting, flexible, multipurpose biosecurity disinfectant
