Technical Details & Test Data
- Efficacy
Microbiological Challenge Studies Studies were run using various concentrations of Glycacil® 2000 in various formulations to see efficacy on a mixed inoculum of fungi. All samples were inoculated at the beginning of the study, sampled at 24 hours, 3, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days.
