Vertec BioSolvents launches formulation that takes care of bacteria in 3 different ways

In Illinois, Vertec BioSolvents discvored a biosolvent formulation that that cleanses microbial contamination from surfaces, provides bactericidal activity (i.e., kills bacteria) and also bacteriostatic activity (i.e., prevents regrowth) even after dilution with water! Many cleaners and sanitizers have one or two of these properties, but none are known to have all three, according to Vertec BioSolvents. And it contains no antibiotics, biocides, or pharmaceuticals, and all the raw materials are commonly used in foods and cosmetic formulations.

Dr. Rathin Datta, Vertec’s Chairman and one of the inventors said that, “In my four decades of experience in bioscience and biotechnology, I have never seen nor heard of all three activities existing together in a single formulation”.

George “Skip” Laubach, Vertec’s President and COO adds:

One of Vertec’s customers has commercialized a hand sanitizer based on the formulation. This FDA approved product not only gives excellent sanitization but also outstanding hand feel and skin conditioning.

Vertec has several very promising applications in the consumer wellness and personal care areas and the company has completed several trials with excellent results.

Several other applications as a final cleaning and sanitization step in food, meat and seed processing industries have shown excellent results. Vertec is eager to work with major players in these industries.
