Minncare Cold Sterilant ® Protect Both You and Your System Minncare Cold Sterilant is a peracetic acid solution developed for use on reverse osmosis (RO) membranes and their associated distribution systems. Peracetic acid formulations were developed by Minntech Corporation in 1976 and are currently being used in a wide variety of applications. Mar Cor Purication distributes Minncare Cold Sterilant to the Medical, Pharmaceutical and Industrial Marketplace. Superior Biocidal Activity Protect reverse osmosis membranes and their associated distribution systems against short- and long-term bacterial problems. Minncare Cold Sterilant is a powerful oxidant that stops organism growth by oxidizing microbial cell proteins and enzyme systems and effectively removes biolms. Minncare Cold Sterilant provides a 6 log reduction of bacteria population at a 100X dilution (1%) within a 36-minute soak time. Elimination of bacterial contamination will help improve product quality and contribute to increased RO membrane life. Minncare Cold Sterilant may eliminate the need for acid cleaning of fouled membranes prior to disinfection in cases where transition metals, such as iron, are not present. Biodegradable and Ease of Disposal Minncare Cold Sterilant is biodegradable and will decompose into oxygen, water and acetic acid. It poses no threat to municipal waste treatment plants.* Residual test strips are available that accurately verify rinse-out levels of Minncare Cold Sterilant as low as one part per million. Compatible w/ Thin Film Composite Membranes Minncare Cold Sterilant gently and completely cleans membranes. Minntech peracetic acid formulations have been successfully used at hundreds of locations on thin lm composite membranes and cellulose acetate membranes. Many of the applications have included extended soak times. Minncare Cold Sterilant will disinfect membranes and protect against decreased ux that is commonly associated with the use of formaldehyde. No Toxic-Aldehyde Vapors Minncare Cold Sterilant protects employees from exposure to toxic aldehyde vapors.
