SaniDate 15.0’s label is now EPA approved to inhibit sal- monella, E. coli and listeria in pack- ing house wash-water applications, providing packers with a new treat- ment option for human health and spoilage organisms. BioSafe Systems said the bacteri- cide/fungicide was formulated specifically to address the unique needs and challenges found in veg- etable and fruit water treatment applications, including the recent changes outlined in the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). Sani Date 15.0’s concentrated 15 per per- oxyacetic acid (PAA) formulation utilizes a proprietary package of sta- bilizing agents to provide packers with a water treatment solution that the company said it is effective against human health pathogens in the water, and also inhibits spoilage organisms that reduce produce shelf-life and quality. BioSafe Systems has also introduced a unique dosing and monitoring system, the SaniDate MDS, which provides packers with automated data logging technology, designed to ensure accurate dosing of all BioSafe Systems’ SaniDate products.
