WHO CAN BENEFIT:
Health care providers in hospitals, nursing homes, schools; those involved in
maintaining facilities where large numbers of people are present; and animal health
care veterinarians, animal grooming, animal husbandry, etc. can benefit from TB-Cide
Quat’s broad spectrum disinfectant activity.
KILLS GERMS:
The resurgence of infectious diseases such as tuberculosis and the emergence of new strains of Escherichia coli have created heightened concern. TB-Cide Quat Disinfectant is proven to kill Mycobacterium tuberculosis, BCG, HIV-1 (AIDS Virus), HBV (Hepatitis B Virus), and HCV (Hepatitis C Virus), but also addresses concerns relating to Escherichia coli O157:H7, i.e., recent E. coli outbreaks in restaurants and other food processing areas.
MEETS THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF OSHA’S BLOOD-BORNE PATHOGEN STANDARD:
An “intermediate-level” disinfectant by the Spaulding system, TB-Cide Quat is proven effective against the TB bacillus and HIV-1 (AIDS Virus), HBV (Hepatitis B Virus),
and HCV (Hepatitis C Virus) in health care or other areas where blood or body fluids are
present or expected.

CANINE PARVOVIRUS:
TB-Cide Quat Disinfectant is an excellent multi-purpose disinfectant for use in animal health care facilities. It offers proven effectiveness against Canine parvovirus as well as desirable cleaning and deodorizing characteristics.
MILDEWSTAT:
TB-Cide Quat Disinfectant controls mold and mildew and is, therefore, excellent for use in restrooms, shower rooms, on damp concrete and other areas susceptible to mildew growth.
VERSATILE:
An excellent disinfectant for use on walls, sink tops, tables, chairs, glazed ceramic tiles
in bathrooms, shower stalls and bathtubs, cabinets.
DEODORIZER:  TB-Cide Quat Disinfectant deodorizes garbage storage areas, empty garbage bins and cans, on damp concrete and in restrooms and other areas which are prone to odors caused by microorganisms.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
It is a violation of Federal Law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its
labeling. This product is not to be used as a terminal sterilant/high-level disinfectant on
any surface or instrument that (1) is introduced directly into the human body, either into
or in contact with the bloodstream or normally sterile areas of the body, or (2) contacts
intact mucous membranes but which does not ordinarily penetrate the blood barrier or
otherwise enter normally sterile areas of the body.
Disinfection, Deodorizing and Cleaning:
Remove gross filth or heavy soil prior to application of TB-Cide Quat Disinfectant. Hold container six to eight inches from surface to be treated. Spray area until it is covered with the solution. Allow TB-Cide Quat to penetrate and the surface to remain wet for 3 minutes
(for Bloodborne Pathogens: HIV-1 allow surface to remain wet for 1 minute; HBV and
HCV allow surface to remain wet for 5 minutes). No scrubbing is necessary. Wipe off
with a clean cloth, mop or sponge. This product will not leave grit or soap scum.
Using approved AOAC test methods (under Good Laboratory Practices, [GLPs]), in the
presence of 5% blood serum and a 3 minute contact time, unless otherwise noted, TB-Cide Quat kills the following organisms on hard, non-porous inanimate surfaces:

Calicivirus and Rabies Virus for 30 seconds.
KILLS HIV-1, HBV, and HCV ON PRE-CLEANED ENVIRONMENTAL
SURFACES/OBJECTS PREVIOUSLY SOILED WITH BLOOD/BODY FLUIDS in
health care settings (Hospitals, Nursing Homes) or other settings in which there is an
expected likelihood of soiling of inanimate surfaces/objects with blood or body fluids,
and in which the surfaces/objects likely to be soiled with blood or body fluids can be
associated with the potential for transmission of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1
(HIV-1) (associated with AIDS), Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), and Hepatitis C Virus (HCV).
