Perasan® L is a peracetic acid-based microbiocide specifically developed for its use in federally inspected dairy processing plants. Perasan® L reduces the incidence of pathogenic organisms, bacteria, and other microorganisms that cause contamination and spoilage.

Perasan® L can be used for direct or indirect introduction into lactose intended for use as a food or beverage additive for human consumption. Since Perasan® L acts as an indirect process additive, it doesn’t need to be declared on any subsequent product labeling.

• Food-grade formula
• High oxidation potential
• Strong reactivity
• Degrades to water, oxygen, and acetic acid (vinegar)
• Shelf-stable for a minimum of one year under normal conditions

As a dairy processing plant microbiocide, Perasan® L can be used:

• As bactericide and fungicide in cold or warm water
• As an additive to the wash water used in lactose production
• Anywhere in the production train system where microbiological growth may be problematic
• Final lactose refining operations
