Noro Cleanse Disinfectant 1L

Description

Noro Cleanse Disinfectant is a highly effective, broad-spectrum disinfectant developed to deliver comprehensive microbial control across animal housing facilities, transport vehicles, farm tools, and general agricultural environments. It is specially formulated with a powerful combination of glutaraldehyde and quaternary ammonium compounds, providing reliable control over viruses, bacteria, fungi, and spores even in the presence of organic matter. Noro Cleanse is an essential component of any farm or institutional biosecurity program and is used extensively in poultry units, dairy farms, pig pens, hatcheries, and veterinary facilities.

It is manufactured under strict quality control by Norbrook Laboratories, a reputable global animal health company. The disinfectant is suited for both preventive and outbreak management situations and ensures that hygiene levels are maintained to protect animal health, reduce disease outbreaks, and support overall productivity.

Active Ingredients

Noro Cleanse contains two highly effective active ingredients:

1. Glutaraldehyde 15% – A potent biocide known for its ability to kill a broad range of microorganisms by denaturing proteins and disrupting microbial cell function. It is effective even in the presence of organic matter and biofilms.

2. Coco-benzyl-dimethyl ammonium chloride 10% – A quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) that works by disrupting microbial cell membranes. It has proven effectiveness against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria as well as certain viruses.

Together, these components work synergistically to provide reliable disinfection under field conditions.

Mechanism of Action

Noro Cleanse works by attacking and denaturing proteins in the microbial cell structure. Glutaraldehyde interferes with the structural integrity of microorganisms, including bacterial spores, while the quaternary ammonium compound alters the cell membranes and inhibits enzyme function. This dual mode of action not only kills pathogens but also prevents their regrowth by destroying their metabolic and structural systems.

Target Pathogens

Noro Cleanse Disinfectant is effective against a wide spectrum of pathogens, including:

• Bacteria such as Salmonella, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus aureus, and Mycoplasma

• Viruses including Newcastle disease virus, avian influenza virus, and swine fever virus

• Fungi such as Aspergillus and Candida species

• Bacterial spores and some protozoan cysts

It remains effective in the presence of organic contaminants like animal waste, dust, and feed residues, which often limit the efficacy of ordinary disinfectants.

Product Applications

Noro Cleanse can be used in a wide range of environments and for multiple purposes:

1. General surface disinfection: Use on walls, floors, feeding equipment, and other surfaces that come into regular contact with animals.

2. Footbath and wheel bath disinfectant: Helps prevent the spread of pathogens from one area to another via shoes or vehicle tires.

3. Drinking water systems: When properly diluted, Noro Cleanse can be dosed into livestock drinking systems to disinfect pipework and reduce microbial contamination.

4. Fogging/aerial disinfection: When used with suitable fogging equipment, Noro Cleanse can sanitize the air and hard-to-reach surfaces in closed environments like poultry houses.

5. Veterinary equipment and instruments: Can be used to clean tools, trays, and enclosures to maintain aseptic conditions.

Dilution and Dosage Guidelines

The product is highly concentrated and requires appropriate dilution depending on the intended use:

• Surface disinfection: Dilute 25 ml of Noro Cleanse per 10 liters of water (1:400 dilution). Apply 300 ml of the solution per square meter of surface.

• Foot and wheel baths: Mix 100 ml of Noro Cleanse per 10 liters of water (1:100 dilution). Replace every 7 to 14 days or sooner if visibly soiled.

• Drinking water system: Dilute 10 ml per 30 liters of water (1:3000 dilution). Use twice per week or as advised by a veterinarian.

• Aerial fogging: Mix 100 ml of Noro Cleanse in 15 liters of water (1:150 dilution). Apply at a rate of 1 liter of solution per 100 cubic meters of space.

• Vehicle and equipment disinfection: Use the same dilution as surface disinfection and apply using a pressure sprayer.

Always prepare fresh solution and apply using clean, non-corrosive equipment.

Safety Guidelines

Noro Cleanse is safe when used as directed, but standard precautions should be followed:

• For external use only. Do not ingest or inhale.

• Avoid contact with eyes and skin. In case of contact, rinse with plenty of water.

• Wear protective gloves and appropriate clothing during mixing and application.

• Do not mix with other chemicals unless confirmed safe by the manufacturer.

• Keep out of reach of children and animals.

First aid should be sought in case of accidental ingestion or serious exposure.

Environmental Safety

When used at the recommended dilution rates, Noro Cleanse does not pose a significant environmental hazard. However, undiluted product or large volumes of waste solution should not be disposed of in natural water bodies. Follow local waste disposal regulations. Do not pour unused concentrate directly into the soil or drain.
