Protect your flock, your business, and your bottom line with the industry’s most advanced disinfection solution.
Avian influenza continues to challenge poultry operations across the globe — and it’s showing no signs of slowing. According to the USDA APHIS 2025 Avian Influenza report, over 68 million birds have been affected in the U.S. since 2022, with new detections reported as recently as Q1 2025.¹ The result? Over $1.3 billion in direct losses, not including long-term supply chain impacts and international trade restrictions.²
With increasing pressure to improve biosecurity, chlorine dioxide — specifically Selectrocide®, the ultra-pure, EPA-registered solution — offers a powerful and validated approach to disease control.
Why Selectrocide® Stands Out
Selectrocide® chlorine dioxide is not a generic disinfectant. It is:
- EPA-registered, FDA-approved, and NSF-listed for drinking water use
- Generated on-demand via patented micro-reactor technology
- Neutral pH and non-corrosive at use concentrations
- Capable of achieving a 6-log (99.99999%) pathogen reduction, verified specifically for our product formulation
- Produces only harmless byproducts after use — making it safe for food-contact surfaces and animal environments
This level of pathogen elimination makes Selectrocide® ideal for controlling H7N9 avian influenza, Salmonella, Campylobacter, E. coli, and other high-risk pathogens in poultry environments.
Proven Poultry Applications of Selectrocide®
1. Drinking Water Treatment (0.25–2 ppm)
Deliver clean, disinfected water directly to your birds.
- Increased weight gain
- Reduced mortality and morbidity
- Compatible with nipple-line and open watering systems
- Suitable for antibiotic-free and organic-certified production systems
2. Coop & Barn Disinfection (100 ppm)
Protect between flocks with broad-spectrum surface disinfection.
- Reduced disease transmission
- Removal of pathogenic microbes
- Improved overall flock health
3. Egg & Hatching Room Disinfection (100 ppm)
Ensure a sanitized environment for vulnerable young birds.
- Controls mold, bacteria, and viruses
- Reduces early chick mortality
- Supports healthy hatch rates
4. Poultry Processing Facility Disinfection (100 ppm)
Safely disinfect food-contact surfaces and critical processing equipment.
- Effective against foodborne pathogens
- Leaves no harmful residue
- Improves facility biosecurity
5. Carcass Washes (3–10 ppm)
Mitigate microbial risks during post-harvest processing.
- Eliminates Salmonella, Listeria, and E. coli
- Reduces spoilage organisms
- Supports regulatory compliance and extends shelf life
Why More Producers Are Switching to Selectrocide®
- Flexible formats: Available in liquid, gas, and fogging systems
- Dry-ship format: Simplifies transport and storage with reduced hazard classifications
- Regulatory support: EPA registered, FDA approved, and NSF listed for potable water use
- Validated performance: Only Selectrocide® chlorine dioxide has documented data supporting a 6-log reduction in targeted applications
- Trusted across the industry: Selectrocide® is used by major poultry producers and is trusted in federally inspected egg and meat facilities
Don’t Wait for the Next Outbreak
Relying on culling as the only response to avian flu is no longer sustainable. With Selectrocide®, poultry operations can proactively disinfect drinking water, surfaces, equipment, and air — safeguarding their birds and ensuring operational continuity.
