Aquacine is a quaternary ammonium compound with exceptional microbiocidal properties for use as a disinfectant, sanitizer, deodorant, germicide and algaecide in Aquaculture.

Aquacine is a cationic surfactant used as "topical disinfectant" to remove ectoparasites from fish, prawn and shrimp. It has detergent and antibacterial activity and is effective to treat bacterial, protozoan and monogenean infections. It is also recommended as bactericides and fungicides in shrimp hatcheries. Widely used in shrimp ponds to control infections.


Aquacinedue to its stronger cationic detergent activity, not only triggers the moulting activity in shrimp and
     prawn but also controls pathogenic microbes.

Aquacine is a strong cationic bactericide, finding wide range of applications in aquaculture.

Aquacine is very effective in control and prevention of all bacterial and fungal diseases in Aquaculture.

Aquacine is advocated for effective control of antenna rot, tail rot, gill rot, red gill, black spot, red discoloration
     and muscle necrosis in Prawn and Shrimp.
Aquacine is also advocated for effective control of bacterial infections such as gill rot, tail rot and fin rot and
     for effective control of Fungal attack on gills and body in fish culture.

Aquacine is advocated for prophylactic treatment of surface ulcers, wounds and lesions in fish culture.

Aquacine  provides additional detergent action which is very important in the treatment of fish diseases.
  Aquacine is particularly useful in treating external bacterial infections such as Bacterial Gill Disease (BGD) 
     where myxobacteria are multiplying within a film of mucus on the gills. The dual action of Bionex inhibits
      bacterial growth in Fish.
Aquacine  has a role, concurrently with specific oral antibacterial treatment, in generally reducing the bacterial
     loading in the water containing fish with bacterial diseases.

Aquacine  helps in inducing moulting in shrimps and prawns.

Aquacine not only prevents water pollution but also deodorizes and purifies water.
Aquacine is not effected by rain and suspended organic matter.
Aquacine suppress algae from over reproduction, and stabilize algae colour.

Aquacine germicidal activity enhances in the presence of nitrogenous organic matter.

Aquacine is biodegradable, hence it decomposes leaving behind no residues and causes no pollution problem.

Aquacine  increases cultivation density and harvest.

Aquacine provides biocidal action by inactivation of the enzymes, denaturing of essential cell proteins or
     disruption of the cell membrane.

Aquacine is lethal in a matter of a few minutes to the pathogenic bacterial spores as one part in several
     thousands of dilution.

Aquacine  provides more biocidal activity at broad pH fluctuations.

Iodine 20% solutions are used in aquaculture as a broad-spectrum disinfectant for fish and shrimp ponds, and for water treatment. They help control bacterial, fungal, and protozoan infections, as well as improve overall water quality. Uses in Aquaculture:

• Disinfection:Iodine 20% solutions are used to disinfect fish and shrimp ponds, effectively killing bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and viruses. 
• Water Quality Improvement:They can help improve water quality by controlling harmful algal blooms and reducing the presence of disease-causing organisms. 
• Disease Control:Iodine solutions are used to treat and prevent various infections in fish and shrimp, including those caused by bacteria, fungi, and protozoa. 
• Specific Applications:They can be used to manage issues like black gill and brown gill in shrimp, and to prevent infections caused by organisms like Zoothamnium and Vorticella. 
• Egg Disinfection:Iodine solutions can also be used for disinfecting fish eggs after water hardening. 

Important Considerations:

• Available Iodine:The concentration of "available iodine" in the product is important. Some products contain 10% available iodine, while others are formulated with 20%. 
• Dosage:The correct dosage of iodine solution will depend on the specific product, the volume of water, and the type of infection being treated. It's crucial to follow the manufacturer's instructions or consult with an aquaculture specialist. 
• Water Hardening:When using iodine for egg disinfection, it's important to follow the recommended dilution and immersion time. 
• Storage:Some iodine solutions have high stability during storage. 
• Safety:Iodine solutions are generally considered safe for use in aquaculture when used as directed. 
• Alternatives:Other disinfectants, such as chlorine-based products, may also be used in aquaculture, but iodine is often preferred due to its broader spectrum of activity and lower toxicity.
