Centrego produces High Quality HOCL Solutions for Disinfection, Cleaning, Misting, Dosing and Decontamination
Hypochlorous acid (HOCL) is a weak acid, generated by specialist electrolysis cells from water and salt. HOCL is one of the most effective disinfectants available in dilute solution and is 80 to 120 times more efficacious than sodium hypochlorite (bleach). Because HOCL has no charge and has a relatively low molecular weight it is better able than the other chlorine-based disinfectants to penetrate the cell walls. It also reacts more rapidly than other chlorine-based disinfectants to oxidation reactions with organic matter, i.e. the critical components of microbial cells.
HOCl is very safe for humans to use – it is a compound that is naturally synthesized by macroorganisms (including of course humans) as part of our natural defence against infections. White blood cells – neutrophils – seek out invasive pathogens like bacteria and viruses and destroy them using hypochlorous acid, binding with the unsaturated lipid layer and disrupting the cellular integrity.
HOCl is a powerful oxidising agent, killing the complete spectrum of bacteria, viruses and spores by destroying the cell membranes and proteins.
HOCl is recognised and approved as a biocide in the EU, UK, the US, Australia and many more countries.
