The History of Silver
For thousands of years Silver has been recognized
for its sterile & antibacterial properties ( the
Egyptians used it for example)
Currently Silver has been used in Bandages and in
polymers used in the manifestation of Laboratory &
Operating theatre equipment.
ES 360 Full Circle Disinfectant
Electrolytically generated silver ions stabilized in
citric acid as silver dihydrogen citrate (SDC).
The Ease & Efficacy of Using Silver
Directions:
Pre-clean surfaces prior to disinfecting. Apply ES 360 Full Circle to
surface until thoroughly wet for the required contact time, as listed.
Wipe dry with a clean cloth.
Mechanism of Action
The silver ions (SDC) will penetrate the outer membrane of the bacteria
resulting in cell death
SDC enters the inside of the bacteria via microscopic channels and destroys
the cytoplasm inside the cell.
Unlike traditional antimicrobials, SDC attracts the bacteria, because they
recognize citric acid as food, this “Trojan Horse” effect allows the SDC to
easily enter the microorganism through membrane transport proteins.
Once inside, SDC binds to the DNA and interrupts replication. Metabolic
and reproductive functions halt, and the organism dies.
