Use Selective Micro products in hospitals, clinical environments, schools, nursing homes or anywhere you need to know is free of bacteria, virus and other microbes.
Unlike other cleaners and disinfectants, Selective Micro products are specifically designed to completely eliminate microbial threats to your health. Bacteria, viruses, molds and other micro organisms simply cannot build up a resistance to Selective Micro products because it kills with oxidation. Use Selective Micro products on any hard, non-porous service and know that is it as clean as you can make it.
Some applications include:
- Bathroom surfaces
- Medical instruments
- Railings and countertops
- Common areas
Usage Example
Using Selective Micro products is simple and easy. Simply add water to the pouch and wait for it to generate. Once complete you can apply the product to any surface that you want to sanitize. Dilution and contact time will be determined by the area you want to clean, but in most cases a 50 ppm solution will do the job. Simply spray the product and walk away. Because the solution is so pure there is no residual to wipe away. For general cleaning we recommend the 2L500.
FAQ’s
Chlorine dioxide use continues to grow due to its anti-microbial properties and neutral pH. Still there are many questions regarding its use and properties. Here are a few of the most commonly asked questions and the answers.
What does Selective Micro make?
- Selective Micro products are nearly pure (>99.9%) solutions of chlorine dioxide in water. Selective Micro products are generated via patented micro-reactor technology, designed to produce a specific amount of chlorine dioxide simply by adding water.
How do I use Selective Micro products?
- Activate and use Selective Micro Clean according to the directions on the pouch label. Introduce Selective Micro Clean into the tanks and lines, then soak and flush. It all comes down to concentration and contact time. Selective Micro products come in the form of a self contained pouch or a sachet. Simply add water to the pouch to generate a specific volume and concentration or add a sachet directly to your volume of water.
Why use Selective Micro products over alternative treatments?
- The products are an effective, non-corrosive and quick rinsing alternative to other decontamination agents on the market today. In other words, chlorine dioxide has more capacity to remove organic matter. In addition, because it is more selective to key organics, it is less corrosive.
Has chlorine dioxide been used before?
- Chlorine dioxide has been recognized as an effective biocide for decades, and is used in a range of hygiene-related applications worldwide. Municipal water systems, for example, have used chlorine dioxide to treat drinking water for over 50 years.
Why couldn’t I use chlorine dioxide before?
- Prior to the introduction of Selectrocide® in 1999, complicated, expensive mechanical generators or relatively impure “stabilized” solutions were the only ways to make chlorine dioxide. Shipping chlorine dioxide in non-frozen forms was and is prohibited. The expense of complex capital equipment, the corrosiveness of the lower-quality “stabilized” solutions, and the shipping limitations inhibited the development of many professional and consumer point-of-use applications. Now, using Selectrocide®, nearly pure (>99.9%) chlorine dioxide can be generated at the point-of use—without capital-intensive equipment.
What is the shelf life of Selective Micro products?
- In the unopened package, Selective Micro products have a shelf life of two years. Once the product is activated, use the Selective Micro solution within 15 days. Store activated solution according to instructions on the label.
Will Selective Micro products damage my surfaces?
- No. At recommended concentrations our products are extremely compatible with materials with a neutral pH.
Is there a test for concentration of Selective Micro chlorine dioxide?
- Chlorine dioxide is easily detectable. For quick on-site verification, Selective Micro offers test strips that quickly and accurately detect concentration and the rinse-out threshold.
