Liquipak BAC 50 - Benzalkonium Chloride Concentrated 5L

Product Information

BAC's hydrophilic cationic region destabilizes the pathogen's surface by forming electrostatic interactions with negatively charged components. A wide range of other products is available for specialised applications and to meet local conditions and regulations. The ultimate effect of BACs is to damage the pathogen's membrane, thus for bacteria, disrupting essential cell processes like ATP synthesis or solute uptake. Further studies supports the idea of lipid content determining BAC (im)permeability, as species with high lipid content like Mycobacterium tuberculosis were found to be less antiseptic sensitive than Mycobacterium phlei with lower lipid content.

Similar to Gram-negative and myco- bacteria, additional impermeability layers of complex spore coat(s) hinders the permeability and activity of BACs. BAC 50 is suitable for the formulation of disinfectants, cleansers and sterilants and as a fungicidal/algicidal wash base for the maintenance or pre-decoration treatment of masonry, brick, timber, plaster, paintwork, etc. Such agencies regularly update regulations based on current scientific data, occasionally limiting the use of compounds found not to be safe or effective. They are effective through a wide pH range, are surface active/adhesive cationic agents and do not add unpleasant odour/colour to finished formulations.Clostridium difficile is a major spore forming bacteria, causing 15-55% of all nosocomial diarrheas. Used in many industrial processes and manufacturing but more often used extensively in the softwashing and exterior cleaning industry for cleaning, paving, drives, walls, roofs and most exterior surfaces. Additional registered uses for BACs in the United States include applications on indoor and outdoor surfaces (walls, floors, toilets, etc.

Concentrated solutions are toxic to humans, causing corrosion/irritation to the skin and mucosa, and death if taken internally in sufficient volumes. A ban on three additional ingredients, including benzalkonium chloride, was deferred to allow ongoing studies to be completed. Substances: Benzalkonium chloride Vinkocide™ BAC 50 is a Quaternary ammonium based biocide also known as alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride and ADBAC, of various even numbered alkyl chain lengths (benzyl C12-C16-alkyldimethyl, chloride). We reserve the right to make any changes according to technological progress or further developments.It is a bactericidal and fungicidal agent that helps to reduce the growth of organisms in multidose containers, and it is similar to other cationic surfactants.
