TAMODINE-E An iodophore disinfectant, suitable for general purpose aviary disinfection. Also for use in veterinary surgeries, hospitals, schools, catering establishments, shops, and other public and industrial premises as a general purpose disinfectant.

It has the benefit of having a built-in colour-marker, which means you can see where you have treated, and also when you have washed it off. In a solution for equipment dips, washes, footbaths etc its colour fades when it becomes inactive.

In aviaries or on dishes, wipe or rinse off the Tamodine-E before use. Hand dips: For personnel handling food, etc use 15-30ml in 10 litres of water. See the article Disinfection in the bird nursery for specific information. Walls, floors and other surfaces can be washed with a solution of 45ml in 10 litres of water. Use 90ml in 10 litres of water for porous or heavily soiled surfaces.

Dishes, utensils, nets etc: Wash in a solution of 30-45ml in 10 litres of warm water. For sanitising rinse only, immerse for at least two minutes in a solution of 15ml in 10 litres of water.

Tamodine can be used to clean food and also may be used in water for soaking seed or pulses, to inhibit bacterial or fungal contamination. When used this way 1ml of Tamodine-E is used per litre of water. Rinse well before feeding.

ARK-KLENS This is a blend of benzalkonium chloride (quaternary ammonium compounds or QAC's) specially selected for safety of use. This family of chemicals are powerful disinfectants with an additional detergent and deodorising action.

At the recommended concentrations ARK-KLENS is non-corrosive, it is bactericidal against a wide range of gram negative and gram positive bacteria, some viruses and some fungi are also susceptible. This makes ARK-KLENS suitable for disinfection of the animal "environment" such as cages, kennels, and food and water bowls etc. It can also be used safely as a disinfectant for birds eggs and incubators.

As a disinfectant it has broad antibacterial activity and is virucidal against lipophilic viruses. It is of particular use in exotic bird quarantine situations due to its efficacy against Chlamydia (ref. Helga Gerlach in Ritchie, Harrison & Harrison 1994, Avian Medicine.Principles and Application, "Infectivity has been shown to be destroyed within minutes by benzalkonium chloride"). These authors also suggest its use for daily cage cleansing and as a table top disinfectant. For information on PBFD, Polyomavirus and Psittacosis testing go to the DNA page.

General disinfection is carried out using 10ml/5 litres ie a final concentration of 0.025%.

This concentration is suitable for egg washing although up to (1 in 1000) is used safely on poultry eggs.
See the article Disinfection in the bird nursery for specific information.
Problems with Pseudomonas growing in QAC's are reported but at normal usage concentrations this is not a problem with Ark-Klens, provided that solutions are changed daily, particularly once contaminated. Pseudomonas has in fact been found to grow in usage concentrations of most disinfectants, THEY ALL NEED TO BE CHANGED FREQUENTLY. In humidifiers it is recommended that water not be left more than 3 days before being changed.

TAMODINE This is a povidone-iodine product similar to one used by many Veterinary Surgeons for hand disinfection prior to surgery. It has a wide spectrum of activity against bacteria, protozoa, yeasts, fungi and some viruses. It has all of the activity of free iodine but with much reduced irritant sensitising effects, and it does not stain.

We suggest that you apply some Tamodine to wet cotton wool and use this gently to cleanse the surface of ulcers or wounds. Once clean, wipe off any excess, and release the bird.

POVIDONE-IODINE COMPOUNDS - Referred to by Holt 1981 as "Probably the most consistently safe antiseptics/disinfectants of value are the povidone-iodine compounds..."
