Overview
BIOBAN™ OP 100 Antimicrobial (formerly DOWICIDE™ 1 Antimicrobial) is readily soluble in most organic solvents and oils and is only slightly soluble in water. It is added to formulation concentrates, which are subsequently diluted with water during use. BIOBAN™ OP 100 Antimicrobial can be formulated with the aid of anionic emulsifiers. However, it is usually incompatible with most other types of surfactants and emulsifiers.
BIOBAN™ OP 100 is uniquely effective against a wide variety of organisms, including Pseudomonas spp. and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Typically, BIOBAN™ OP 100 Antimicrobial is used in combination with other substituted phenolics in the manufacture of disinfectant formulations used in homes, schools, hospitals, and nursing homes.
BIOBAN™ OP 100 is also used in the manufacture of formulations for the postharvest treatment of pears and citrus fruits.
