Precautionary requirements are important in a state of alert

All possible preventive measures have to be taken to help prevent spread of diseases.

In preventing the spread, the correct choice of your disinfectant is of great importance. After all, other pathogens, besides Avian Influenza, may be present in the farm too. Therefore the use of a broad spectrum disinfectant which is also effective against other viruses as well as bacteria and fungi is highly recommended. Generally taken, the more different active ingredients and the higher the concentration of active ingredients a disinfectant has, the better the quality. But, only active ingredients are not enough, also stabilizing, sequestering and surface active agents have an important effect on the quality of the disinfectant. Therefore, a disinfectant can be correctly judged based on efficacy reports.  All high quality disinfectants can provide official test reports which proves the efficacy off the product at certain dilutions. However, it’s very important to know how the tests have been carried out! Only tests where field conditions are simulated (by adding organic material and using hard water) are relevant , as most disinfectants score remarkably better when tested in clean lab conditions (without adding organic material and with demineralised water).

CID LINES recommends the use of CID20 / VIROCID (www.virocid.com) since it has been proven to be the most effective at the lowest dilution against most bacteria, fungi and viruses.
