EcaFloŽ
solutions have been used successfully to treat
for powdery mildew in green houses and for water
disinfection in green house irrigation systems
for several years. Not only are fungi like
powdery mildew and other microorganisms that
attack the plant’s root system controlled, but
the irrigation lines are kept free of bacteria,
slime and scale.
EcaFloŽ solutions allow for reduced concentrations of fungicide
used to control Oidium fungus on fruit trees. EcaFloŽ solutions
prepared at pH 7.0 for fungicidal treatment of fruit trees
were compared with a systematic fungicide product, SIPCAM
INAGRA R, DOMARK R (active ingredient Tetraconazol material
10 % EC). Similar test results were obtained for both anolyte
and DOMARK R. The EcaFloŽ anolyte is easy to use and does
not harm the environment.
Additional treatment tests using anolyte in
combination with a contact, non systematic
herbicide were completed resulting in an
effective treatment of fruit trees. By
replacing 10% of the GRAMOXONE R herbicide with
anolyte, a similar effect was achieved as with
the straight product. The results are
encouraging because control is
achieved using a less concentrated solution of
the herbicide.
EcaFlo ® solutions have multiple uses in controlling pathogens
in beef, pork and poultry operations. Studies have shown dramatic
results as a result of using ECA solutions in the drinking
water and feeds of animals. Reduced mortality rates, healthier
stock, faster weight gain and less costly medications are
but a few examples of the benefits anolyte can provide.
The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has permitted
the use of chlorine as follows:
| 1. Red meat carcasses down to a quarter
of a carcass |
| 2. Whole or eviscerated poultry carcasses (not parts)
|
| 3. In-plant chlorination of water and water for formulation
|
| 4. Poultry chiller water |
| 5. Poultry chiller red water (i.e. re-circulated &
reused) |
| 6. Reprocessing contaminated poultry carcasses |
| 7. Giblets and salvage parts as influent to a container
for chilling not to exceed 20 minutes |
| 8. Antimicrobial spray for beef primals |
