This study evaluated the activity of AHP® against Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea virus (PEDv) in swine feces on metal surfaces, particularly under freezing conditions to simulate winter weather. The data indicates......
In May of 2013, porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) was detected in swine for the first time in North America. It spread rapidly, in part due to contaminated livestock trailers.......
Journal of Applied Microbiology K. Hole, F. Ahmadpour, J. Krishnan, C. Stansfield, J. Copps, C. Nfon (2017). In a laboratory, disinfectants used to inactivate pathogens on contaminated surfaces and to......
This study compared the efficacy of four disinfectants, used in footmats throughout large animal hospitals. The use of AHP® led to the largest reduction in bacterial count, compared to the......
This study revealed the importance of quality control and maintenance of automated dilution systems for AHP® to ensure optimal results....
Chemical germicides are important in infection control. However, there are mounting concerns on the human and environmental safety of many germicidal products in use today. Whereas it may be difficult......
AHP® disinfecting wipes were studied to test their ability to decontaminate surfaces and to transfer acquired contamination to clean surfaces. AHP® was the only product that was able to prevent...
This study looked at various strategies for reprocessing ETs, including using AHP®. AHP® was found to be an effective approach when sterilization is not feasible....
This study determined that antifreeze agents can be added to AHP® based disinfectants to ensure the disinfectant remains in liquid form at -20°C, without compromising the efficacy of AHP® against...
Vet. Microbiol. Bowman et al. (2015). Routine detection of PEDv is currently limited to RT-PCR bust this test cannot distinguish between viable and inactivated virus. We evaluated the capability of......
This study tested a number of leading ATP meters to detect if they would be adversely affected by factors such as soils and cleaner-disinfectant chemistry. See Article...
The purpose of this study was to determine the antifungal efficacy of Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide® (AHP®) disinfectants against Microsporum and Trichophyton spp using AHP®...
This study was designed to test the efficacy of four disinfectants against drug-resistant bacteria, including a quaternary ammonium compound, a traditional hydrogen peroxide product, and two improved hydrogen peroxide products......
The study reviews UDM from a statistical perspective, identifying significant gaps in the reproducibility of the test data as predicted by statistical analysis and those presented to the EPA for......
Although such surfaces are routinely disinfected, the testing and label claims of many common disinfectants do not reflect the realities of field use. This study addresses the disparity between disinfectant......
This paper addresses the common misconception that pH is an appropriate indication of product safety, as this is often not the case. Researchers found that solutions with a pH of......
This study evaluated the efficacy of Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide® (AHP®) in post milking teat disinfection against Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus agalactiae. Teat skin and teat end health were also examined....
This study evaluated the cleaning and decontamination efficacy, volatile organic compound release, safety and compatibility of AHP®. Overall, the researchers found AHP® to have excellent safety, environmental, cleaning and disinfection......
