From Mar Cor Purification

Minncare Cold Sterilant is an effective disinfectant and sterilant for hard surfaces commonly found in pharmaceutical cleanrooms. Surfaces made from non-porous materials such as plastics, stainless steel or glass can be disinfected using Minncare Cold Sterilant solutions. Examples include counter tops, walls, floors, etc.

Minncare Cold Sterilant is a powerful disinfectant containing a proprietary mixture of 4.5% peracetic acid and 22.0% hydrogen peroxide. It is effective against a broad spectrum of organisms, including bacterial spores, fungal spores, bacteria, mycobacteria, yeast, molds and viruses. Minncare Cold Sterilant is not a systemic bactericide. Rather it is a powerful oxidizer that attacks and breaks down the organic components of microorganisms, not just killing them, but destroying their structure. This makes Minncare Cold Sterilant one of the fastest acting and most effective disinfectants available.
