MODE OF ACTION
DISINFECTION BY OXIDATION BASED ON HALAMID®
Halamid® is an oxidizing product. Its action is based on an irreversible destruction of the envelope and cell material of microorganisms. This disinfection by oxidation ensures that microorganisms are effectively killed and do not have a chance to develop resistance to Halamid®.
Some bacteria are prone to develop resistance to certain disinfectants, in particular with organic types such as quaternaries ammonium compounds. In applications such as in livestock, food industry and hospitals where disinfectants are used on a daily basis, this is obviously a major problem not encountered with Halamid®.
