Gramicid: Silver based Hydrogen Peroxide as Multi-component Biocide
Gramicid by U.S.Steriles is a complex
of noble metal Silver with a highly
concentrated Hydrogen Peroxide base.
The H2O2 component acts as a rapid
germ killing agent by mode of oxidation
while elemental silver has oligo-
dynamic properties on microbial level.
Thus Silver H2O2 manufactured as
Gramicid has a synergistic effect of
disinfection and eradication of germs.
Hydrogen Peroxide with silver has a
rapid and thorough disinfection over a
wide temperature range. Gramicid does
not have any odor, or taste or any toxic
effects. It is non corrosive and does not
alter the pH of the medium. Under stipulated dosage, it is non-irritant. Gramicid is an ecofriendly nonpolluting
oxidizing biocide that decomposes to produce nascent oxygen as H2O2 -----> H2O + [O]. Thus it does not
produce harmful by-products on decomposition. The residual silver level is within the stipulated human
exposure per person per day as directed by W.H.O thus safe for humans and animals.
Silver hydrogen peroxide based Gramicid has a wide range of applications and can easily substitute halogen,
aldehyde, phenol and quats based biocides without the harmful environmental effects they cause. It has
widespread application in:
Drinking water
Food & Beverage
Animal Farms
Swimming Pools & Water Parks
Hospitals and Clinics
Pharmaceutical
Agriculture
Dairies
In addition, Gramicid can be used as a spray fumigant for indoor air quality management, as a hand disinfectant
and pre-treatment before disposal of medical wastes. Gramicid is a powerful sterilizing agent effective against
bacteria, virus, fungi, algae and spores. The best feature is that microbes cannot get resistant to the biocide.
When compared to other biocides, disinfectants and antiseptic solutions, Gramicid is almost 5 times more
economical and environment friendly. Different application specific variants of Gramicid are also available like
Gramicid-C as Cooling tower Biocide, Gramicid-E as garbage treatment chemical etc
