Eka Facts an Akzo Nobel Company 35% PEROX-AID® INTRODUCTION 35% PEROX-AID® is a special formulated hydrogen peroxide product and is the only hydrogen peroxide product approved for use in aquaculture (NADA #141-255). 35% PEROXAID® is intended for use as an external microbiocide for the control of mortality in freshwater-reared finfish eggs due to saprolegniasis, in freshwater-reared salmonids due to bacterial gill disease, and in freshwaterreared coolwater finfish and channel catfish due to external columnaris disease. Refer to the product label for details on directions for use prior to treating finfish of any life stage, as well as limitations and cautions for all uses. 35% PEROX-AID® has been granted designation for its intended label uses by the Office of Minor Use and Minor Species (MUMS) within FDA. SAFETY AND HANDLING NOTICE: Contact of all grades of hydrogen peroxide with the eyes or mucous membranes can result in burns or other serious health effects and requires immediate medical attention. Eye effects may be delayed for as long as a week or more after exposure. Even though no severe pain is noted, adhere to the Safety and Handling Procedures outlined below. The active ingredient in 35% PEROX-AID® is hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is a very reactive chemical and must be handled carefully. Solutions should be stored in their original containers until ready for use, and any material removed from its original container must not be returned to it. Personnel should wear rubber gloves, eye and face protection, and suitable Eka Chemicals Inc. 1775 West Oak Commons Court Marietta, Georgia 30062 (800) 241-3900 protective clothing when handling this chemical. Utensils used for handling hydrogen peroxide must be made of compatible materials like glass, stainless steel, aluminum or plastic. Hydrogen peroxide must never be placed in a closed, unvented container. Although hydrogen peroxide is nonflammable, it can accelerate combustion if allowed to contact other combustible or flammable materials. Any spilled hydrogen peroxide should be immediately flooded and washed away with liberal quantities of water. Although neither hydrogen peroxide nor its decomposition products, oxygen and water, are systemic poisons, concentrated solutions irritate the skin, mucous membrane tissue and the eyes. If the chemical comes in contact with the skin, it should be immediately and thoroughly washed off with generous quantities of water for at least 15 minutes. If it contacts the eyes, flush thoroughly and consult a physician promptly. If swallowed, drink lots of water but do not encourage vomiting. Call a physician immediately. Clothing must be washed thoroughly with water should it come in contact with hydrogen peroxide. If allowed to dry in the fabric, the chemical may cause fire, particularly if the clothing is soiled.
