With an exceptional safety profile, PathoCide is the ultimate aquaculture microbial decontamination sanitizer, proven to highly effective against broad-spectrum microorganisms in freshwater and seawater field tests. The purification effect of PathoCide is attributable to the peracetic acid ion, which is released from the reaction of a hydrogen peroxide donor and a selected peracetic acid precursor in water. Peracetic acid(PAA)(active oxygen), which is the active ingredient of PathoCide, acts with oxidative reaction of lipid membranes, DNA and other items essential to the life of the cell. The sulfhydryl bonds-SH, -S-S-and the double bonds found in proteins, enzymes and other metabolites represent the main sites of action of Peracetic acid. Baldry and Fraser1 state that the Peracetic acid (PAA) (active oxygen), stops the chemiosmotic function of cytoplasmic membrane lipoproteic and transport within the cell, through a shift or rupture of the cell wall. Based on the capacity of penetration, hydrolysis and oxidation, the peracetic ion possesses the characteristics of safety, strength, broad-spectrum capability of quickly transferring the electrons of the microbial cell wall in order to disrupt sulphydrylic bonds and sulphuric bonds of proteins and enzymes in the microbial cells. The peracetic ion may also destroy cell membranes, thus changing the osmotic function and oxidizing enzymes that transport dissolved matter within cells. It can manage the catalysis of the repair function and deactivating protein but never cause microbial mutation and drug resistance. PathoCide does not contain toxic, highly volatile or exceedingly residual substances such as chlorine, amines, aldehydes or phenol. The end-products after application are only oxygen and water. PathoCide is not veterinary medicine. It is a peroxidant complex anhydrous multi-purpose sanitizer with no chlorine, quaternary ammonium, aldehyde, phenol nor veterinary medicinal ingredients. It is used for the purification of microbial contamination of aquaculture water with outstanding efficacy and excellent microbial broad-spectrum. There is no risk of failure in drug testing since no residue exists; therefore, the development rate can be elevated to ensure a high harvest level. When carefully following the instructions, no harm to aquatic animals and plankton will possibly occur. Hence, the healthy growth environment for fish and shrimp can be effectively maintained and remain appropriate for various aquatic animals in each stage of growth.
