What is
?
Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide (AHP) is a patented, colorless liquid cleaning and
disinfecting solution developed by Virox Technologies Inc. AHP is a synergistic blend
of commonly used, safe ingredients that when combined with low levels of hydrogen
peroxide, dramatically increase its germicidal potency and cleaning performance.
AHP contains only those ingredients listed on the FDA GRAS listing (Generally
Regarded As Safe) and the EPA and Health Canada’s inert lists, contributing to
an unsurpassed health, safety and environmental profile.
How does AHP work?
The accelerated activity of AHP is the outcome of a unique synergy between
hydrogen peroxide and other inert ingredients including surfactants
and sequestering agents. This synergy greatly increases the kinetics of the action
against pathogenic organisms and reduces the time required for decontamination.
What is Accel TB?
Accel TB is an EPA registered intermediate level disinfectant used on environmental
surfaces in cleanrooms, laboratories, pharmaceutical manufacturing, compounding
pharmacies, animal labs and other facilities where short contact time is beneficial.
This product is based on Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide technology developed by
Virox Technologies Inc. and marketed by Contec, Inc.
Why choose AHP and Contec®?
Virox’s AHP disinfection technology has been in successful use in major institutions
for the past five years. The technology has proven itself time and again as a more
effective, safer solution to the problems of disinfection.

Why choose Accel TB?
Short Contact Times
Realistic contact times against a wide-variety of pathogens provides confidence
that the decontamination is successful. Effective against TB and other difficult-tokill pathogens.
No Active Residuals
Active ingredient breaks down to water and oxygen, and will not lead to resistant
strain development.
Excellent Health & Safety Profile
Maximum indoor air quality. No exposure to noxious fumes. Occupants and users
not exposed to VOCs (volatile organic compounds).
Superior Environmental Profile
May be disposed in accordance with local regulations. Accel TB decomposes
rapidly in a wastewater facility.
