What is Quatricide TB?

Quatricide TB as a general disinfectant specifically designed to destroy multiple contaminants. Quatricide TB is commonly used in hospitals, schools, industrial plants and public buildings. The disinfectant is formulated to clean nonporous surfaces such as counters, walls, metal or stainless steel surfaces, and plastic surfaces. Quatricide TB is an effective deterrent in preventing the spread of diseases such as tuberculosis.

  1. General Use

    • Quatricide TB should be applied to the desired area and left undisturbed for a minimum of 10 minutes; this allows the disinfectant to penetrate the surface and kill the contaminants. After 10 minutes, remove the disinfectant with a mop, cloth or sponge. If you're using Quatricide TB on a surface used for food, rinse the surface with clean water.

    Anti-Tuberculosis

    • Quatricide TB has been proved effective against mycobacterium tuberculosis (BCG). The disinfectant must be applied with a room temperature of at least 68 degrees Fahrenheit to completely sterilize the area.

    Antibacterial

    • Quatricide TB is also effective in disinfecting areas from bacterial organisms. Its effectiveness against particularly resistant bacteria (such as Vancomycin and Staphylococcus) makes Quatricide TB a popular disinfectant among hospitals.

    Antiviral

    • Quatricide TB can also sterilize an area of live viruses such as HIV (AIDS) and hepatitis. Surfaces soiled with blood or other body fluids are commonly cleaned with Quatricide TB.

    Antifungal

    • The anti-fungal applications of Quatricide TB are particularly well-suited for areas that may spread fungus (such as athlete's foot). Quatricide TB is often used in public bathrooms or shower rooms where people commonly walk with bare feet.
