Today, the entire globe has been reduced to a simple roadmap. This is good for the global economy but it is also a boost for the global transmission of infectious pathogens. One only has to look at the recent epidemics in various global areas of SARS, influenza, avian flu, foot and mouth disease and illnesses that have caused popular cruise lines to turn back to port, to grasp how fast and thoroughly any disease has the potential to wreak havoc. • Aside from imported diseases, there are plenty to deal with. The medical institution recognizes the fact that many are evolving into very antibiotic resistant strains, making them harder to cure. Poor disinfection and hygiene practices were cited as the main cause of all the infections. “The emphasis must first be on prevention of the spread of infectious diseases and then on the cure.” Ali M. Javadian, PhD, MPH, manager of technology development at Wyeth Vaccines Research in Pearl River, N.Y.
Disinfection Why is disinfection important? Fundamental in reducing pathogens load in the environment to decrease the risk of diseases. Disinfection in : • Healthcare Industry- control/reduce pathogens to safe level to prevent Hospital-acquired infection (HAI) • Child Care Industry- provide hygienic environment for healthy children • Food Related Industries - kill microbes that cause food-borne illnesses • Poultry & Livestock Industry - break the cycle of diseases and control over new infections • Pet’s Hygiene - healthy pet and healthy home • Water Purification - kill pathogenic organisms including those causing cholera, polio, typhoid etc “disinfectants play a serious role in the reduction of disease transmission, directly through biocidal activity……” Stuart Reid, professor of comparative epidemiology and informatics at the Universities of Glasgow and Strathclyde in Glasgow, U.K.

Hovid’s NaDCC Tablets Specifications Appearance: White tablet Molecular weight: 220.96 Chemical name: Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate Chemical formula: C3HCl2N3O3.Na Solubility: Completely soluble in water Dissolution: Clear solution with faint chlorine odor Tablet strengths: 17mg, 0.5gm, 1.25gm and 2.5gm
Antimicrobial Action of NaDCC HOCl causes chlorination of cell protein and enzyme systems, which leads to hydrolysis of the peptide chains of the micro-organisms cell membranes and results in destruction of the micro-organisms. Cell’s Enzymetic System ADP ATP HOCl X HOCl Cell Wall HOCl Metabolic function disrupted Membrane cell rupture
% of Undissociated HOCl pH The NaDCC solution at pH 5.5-6.7 releases over 90% of undissociate hypochlorous acid (HOCl) as compare to liquid hypochlorites, which in-use solution is at pH greater than 9 only release 10% HOCl. At pH greater than 9, the remaining 90% of HOCl will quickly dissociate into H+ and the hypohlorite ion (OCl-) that possesses only 1/100 of HOCl’s antimicrobial activity. Our R&D department ensures Hovid’s NaDCC tablets dissolve rapidly in water and release HOCl instantly at a solution of pH 5.5-6.7.
