Decon 7
Why D7 is Superior to other Products for Disinfection of SARS-CoV-2
D7 is an aqueous-based disinfectant that can rapidly neutralize highly toxic chemical and biological materials.
Formulation
Effective
is effective for killing pathogenic organisms including bacteria, viruses, biofilms, and fungi and for neutralizing highly toxic chemicals;
Safer
utilizes very mild ingredients that gives it very low toxicity and corrosivity properties;
Versatility
can be deployed as a foam, liquid spray, or fog on a wide variety of materials and surfaces.
More About Decon 7
D7 contains surfactants, mild solvents, inorganic salts, a low concentration of hydrogen peroxide, a hydrogen peroxide activator, and water. The surfactants soften the cell walls of pathogens which allows the activated peroxide to penetrate to the interior for complete kill.
D7 is currently being extensively used world-wide to combat COVID-19 with excellent results. Over 1000 tons of D7 have been used in medical facilities and other facilities in China and other countries in the last two months to successfully disinfect the SARS-CoV-2 virus. According to medical personnel in China, it is the only disinfectant that seems to work against SARS-CoV-2. It is also being successfully used for disinfection operations in virtually every other country with significant numbers of COVID-19 cases and also in countries without many cases where disinfection operations have been stepped up to prevent the spread of the virus.
Why is D7 a superior disinfectant for SARS-CoV-2 as compared to many other products? The primary reason is that, in real world applications, SARS-CoV-2 does not exist alone. When airborne, SARS-CoV-2 is almost always surrounded by and protected by bodily fluids (e.g., saliva, nasal mucous, etc.) which makes it very persistent in the environment. When it lands on a surface, the situation is even worse because SARS-CoV-2 is also protected by organic material and soil on those surfaces making it even more persistent. In addition, the genetic material in the SARS-CoV-2 virus is surrounded by a lipid envelope. The detergents and mild solvents in D7 cut through the bodily fluids, soil/organic material, and lipid envelope so that the hydrogen peroxide and activated hydrogen peroxide in D7 actually reaches and destroys the virus.
