· WHAT IS AQUATIZE®
A Proprietary, EPA-Approved Safe Water Disinfectant
AQUATIZE® is a proprietary and trademarked product — a specially formulated liquid that is applied through drinking water systems to kill pathogenic bacteria often found in the drinking water of farm animals. It is a combination of two oxyhalogens, Sodium Chlorite and Sodium Chlorate, and stabilizers.
Oxyhalogens refer to a group of chemical compounds that combine halogens (such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine) with oxygen. These oxyhalogens are very mild chemicals, non-corrosive, non-volatile, and stable in water for a long period of time without losing their effectiveness.
AQUATIZE® is more stable and effective than chlorine bleach and chlorine dioxide products, eliminating concerns with safety and efficacy. It is applied at low concentrations to the drinking water of poultry, swine, turkeys, and calves, and is easy to use.

· THE OVERLOOKED NUTRIENT
Why Water Quality Comes First
AQUATIZE® is a proprietary and EPA-approved product used to treat animal drinking water. For over 18 years, AQUATIZE® and related products have proven to be highly effective in the treatment of animal drinking water.
Water accounts for 50–80% of an animal's weight, and water is involved in every physiological process in an animal's body. Additionally, animals drink approximately twice as much weight in water versus feed. With this in mind, we identify that clean, sanitary drinking water is the most vital nutrient in an animal's life — but water is often the most overlooked nutrient.
· PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY

AQUATIZE® is applied at low concentrations to the drinking water of the species that matter most to your operation.
Poultry
Broilers and layers benefit from reduced pathogen load and improved flock performance.
Turkeys
Proven pathogen control for commercial turkey operations at every growth stage.
Calves
Supports healthy early growth by keeping drinking water free of dangerous pathogens.
Swine

· PROVEN EFFECTIVE AGAINST BACTERIA
11 Pathogens Listed on the EPA-Approved Label
Pathogens in animal production include bacteria, fungi, yeast, and intestinal worms. The EPA allows common bacterial diseases to be listed directly on the AQUATIZE® label — a unique status. Tests were successfully conducted using AOAC test method 965.13 against the following bacteria:
Campylobacter jejuni
ATCC 29428
Diarrhea in most species
Escherichia coli
ATCC 11229
Diarrhea in most species
Escherichia coli 015:H7
ATCC 43895
Most deadly form of E. coli
Listeria monocytogenes
ATCC 7644
Destroys liver, lungs, intestinal surfaces
Pasteurella multocida
ATCC 6530
Cattle, sheep, pigs. Pneumonia, etc.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
ATCC 15442
Necrosis of lungs, intestines, etc.
Salmonella enteritidis
ATCC 13076
Common in lab animals, but can infect others
Salmonella typhimurium
ATCC 14028
Heavy infection almost always destroys lower intestine
Shigella sonnei
ATCC 9290
Dysentery and damage to lower digestive tract
Streptococcus faecalis
ATCC 19083
Pyogenic infections
Streptococcus suis
ATCC 43765
Septicemia, meningitis, arthritis
Tagged items require a 1:2000 dilution rate.
Unlike many animal drinking water disinfectants on the market, AQUATIZE® has a vast library of scientific data behind it — in many cases published in peer-reviewed journals and researched by respected organizations in their field.
· AQUATIZE® VS. SALMONELLA
The Pathogen Behind Most Foodborne Illness
1.35M
Annual U.S. Cases
26,500
Hospitalizations
420
Deaths
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimate that each year in the U.S., there are about 1.35 million cases of salmonellosis, with 26,500 hospitalizations and 420 deaths. Contaminated food is the source for most of these cases. Salmonellosis is the second leading cause of foodborne illnesses in the U.S., after norovirus, but is the leading cause of hospitalizations and deaths from food poisoning.
The transmission of Salmonella can occur across the entire food chain — from animal feed and primary production to households, food-service establishments, and institutions. Salmonella enteritidis and Salmonella typhimurium — often invasive and life-threatening to humans — are two of the most globally impactful strains of Salmonella and the most common in the United States, accounting for half of all human infections.
Testing has revealed effective methods of using AQUATIZE® to significantly reduce or eliminate the presence of the following species of Salmonella:

Proven in Lab Studies Effective Against E. Coli
AQUATIZE® was tested across a range of dilution rates against E. coli. At dilutions as low as 1:2000, no viable E. coli survived the dose — efficacy only broke down at much weaker dilutions (1:3500 and beyond).
