Benefect® Spectrum of Efficacy

 

Health Canada registered disinfectants/fungicides require a 99.999% reduction against the following organisms within a standard contact time of 10 minutes. Sanitizer-level reductions of 99.9% are achieved in less time.

NOTE: Benefect® is not required, nor recommended, to be rinsed or wiped off at all due to its natural ingredients and neutral pH, even on food contact surfaces. "Just Spray & Walk Away"

Organism (type) Common Related Problems Reduction
Staphylococcus aureus (Bacteria +) infections 99.999+%
Salmonella choleraesius (Bacteria - ) food poisoning, typhoid, septicemia, gastroenteritis 99.999+%
Psuedomonas aeruginosa (Bacteria - ) pneumonia, urinary, & nosocomial infections 99.999+%
Trichophyton mentagrophytes (Fungus- spore forming) Athlete's Foot, ringworm, & other mycoses 99.999+%
Methodology: The Quantitative Carrier test for Sporicides- Sattar, Springthorpe was adapted for bacteria and fungi. These new methods have been adopted by the ASTM, CGSB, EPA and Health Canada. Additional organisms are continually being tested to broaden the kill spectrum of Benefect®. The statements of antimicrobial activity are based on independent laboratory testing.
