Alstasan Silvox: Silver Hydrogen Peroxide based Disinfectant

Anything that has mass and occupies space is subjected to microbial metabolism. It’s natural but creates havoc when this activity leads to undesirable contamination of the same. Many industrial and commercial applications are prone to being a habitat of micro-organisms owing to their varied operating conditions, which becomes a matter of concern when it bears severe financial losses to the industries. Introduction of bacteria, algae, fungi in a regular or closed system, disturbing their natural operations is how a microbial contamination occurs. Mass dependency on artificial resources is the primary reason for it but also its usage cannot be avoided. So, a striking a balance between combating contaminants and minimizing harmful byproducts is important for application sustainability.

Scientists studied the deactivating effects that combination of Silver and Hydrogen Peroxide manifests and the major revelation of such combined disinfectant was about the toxicity of its components, residual effect and disinfection by product formation. Toxicity of this combination was found to be very low with prolonged residual effects and both, silver and hydrogen peroxide showed an exemplary anti-microbial performance even at lower dosage concentrations. In fact, this synergistic blend of Silver and Hydrogen Peroxide showed more cidal effects compared to other regular disinfectants in use, exhibiting an all-round microbial elimination without leaving behind any toxic residue over the application system.

Alstasan Silvox, an eco-friendly blend of hydrogen peroxide and silver, provides high efficacy in killing harmful pathogens across multiple media (viz., air, water, and surface) without leaving any kind of toxic residues on them. The key ingredients to Silver Hydrogen Peroxide include Hydrogen Peroxide which is a potent oxidizer, stabilized by the addition of antimicrobial Silver, that too in its Nano form, adhered by many inert stabilizers, and catalysts.

How does it work?

Hydrogen Peroxide is a rapid oxidizing agent which when comes in contact with wall of micro-organisms, ruptures their total internal structure, forbidding further replications. Once the microorganism is killed, the silver quickly stabilizes the activities of peroxide without allowing it to break into oxygen and water. Hydrogen Peroxide with stabilized Nano Silver exhibits excellent anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, eliminating harmful micro-organisms and also prevents their further replication, owing to the presence of silver which alters the DNA structure of those micro-organism, inhibiting any kind of further reproduction. This combination provides high efficacy in killing of bacteria, fungi, algae from almost all possible applications such as soil, water, air and any hard surface.
