BioSafe Systems announced in a press release that SaniDate 5.0 is effective against Human Coronavirus on hard, non-porous surfaces. A GLP viricidal efficacy study was conducted using SaniDate 5.0 at a rate of 1.0 fl. oz. per gallon with a 10-minute contact time, an application specifically designed to combat Human Coronavirus.
An expedited submission including a supplemental label will be requested with the EPA. Once approved, this virus will be added to the product label in the United States and Canada, and will allow the product to be included in the EPA List N-Disinfectants for Use Against SARS-CoV-2 and the Health Canada Disinfectants for Use Against SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) List.
After passing EPA approval, the supplemental label will become available to those who have previously purchased SaniDate 5.0 and will be provided to BioSafe Systems’ distributors.
SaniDate 5.0 (EPA Reg. No. 70299-19) is a hydrogen peroxide and peroxyacetic acid-based sanitizer/disinfectant approved for a wide variety of use sites in a multitude of markets. SaniDate 5.0 controls human health pathogens, viruses, crop spoilage organisms, mold/mildew, algae and fungi on contact.
