The use of VIBREX in disinfection of poultry houses is very effective in eliminating respiratory infections in birds and in the prevention of these infections. VIBREX is effective in eliminating New Castle , Avian Influenza , Aspergillosis and other bird respiratory problems. The following is a protocol for in the use of VIBREX in the control of pathogens in poultry houses.

Benefits in the use of VIBREX in poultry houses .

• Eliminate 99.99% of all type of bacteria, mold, algae , biofilm and some of the virus already mentioned.
• Stays diluted in the water , it is not lost to the enviroment.
• Maintains a 48 to 72 hrs anti-microbial residual
• Does not react with organic matter, only with micro-organisms, maximizing its efficacy and preventing the creation of cancer precursors.
• Precipitates certain metals such as, iron and manganese, softening the drinking water.
• Is effective between pH 4 and pH 7.
• Is non-corrosive
• Approved by FDA for animal and human consumption when applied to drinkling water and foodstuffs.
• Does not add odor, color , nor taste to treated medium.
• Eiminates bad odors.
• It is user friendly
• It is not toxic at the rcommended levels.
  
  

APPLICATION PROGRAM:
Recommendations for using in washing surfaces in poultry houses and poultry farm equipment.

• Prepare a stock solution of 100,000 ppm by mixing one part of VIBREX with 4 parts of water.
• Mix solution with washing water , such that it contains 50 ppm. Exmple: 100,000 / 50 = 2,000 liters of washing water. apply to surfaces, floors and equipment with pressure hose once a day.
• In poultry drinking water.
• Prepare same stock solution as above. Apply in drinking water tank at 1 ppm . Example: 100,000 ppm / 1 = 100,000 liters of drinking water.
• Nebulization inside poultry house for pathogen control.
• Using same sotck solution . mix with nebulizer water at 1,000 ppm . Example: 100,000 ppm / 1000 ppm = 100 liters of nebulizer water.
• Apply nebulization inside poultry house, 3 times per day until respiratory symptoms disappear. Continue application once a day until the end of cycle.
• 1 kg. de VIBREX provide 500,000 `ppm of transformed chlorine dioxide .
• Monitor microbicidal efficacy by taking surface swabs on control points.
  
  

Measuring chlorine dioxide with orthotolidine.
Chlorine dioxide concentration is measured with orthotolidine in the same way as chlorine concentration is measured, except that what is measured in chlorine dioxide is its the oxiding power. In the case of chlorine dioxide, when comparing with the standard color chart, we start measuring between 30 to 90 seconds after orthotolidine application.


Measuring chlorine dioxide by titration.
Use the standard method of the Amercian Chemist Handbook.
