Chemistry
Tristel Duo ULT utilises Tristel’s proprietary chlorine dioxide chemistry, a well-documented and highly effective biocide.
It has two separate compartments that contain 125ml of Tristel Base Solution (citric acid) and 125ml of Tristel Activator Solution (sodium chlorite). Upon pressing the pump, the two solutions mix and chlorine dioxide chemistry is generated.
Chlorine dioxide does not form hazardous by-products or halogenated compounds.
Due to the way chlorine dioxide breaks down and destroys microorganisms, resistance cannot develop over time. Find out more about the mode of action of chlorine dioxide here.

What is Human papillomavirus HPV?
HPV is a group of non-enveloped DNA viruses. There are 14 HPV types which are considered high-risk and are responsible for approximately 99% of cervical cancer cases.
Research conducted by Meyers et al., (2020) demonstrates that the product is effective against infectious HPV types 16 and 18, on a transvaginal ultrasound probe in 30 seconds.
What is SARS-CoV-2?
SARS-CoV-2 is a severe acute respiratory syndrome virus and the strain of coronavirus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic.
Coronaviruses are a group of airborne viruses that spread via respiratory droplets. These droplets can be directly transmitted to a new host or indirectly via contaminated surfaces.
Testing demonstrates that Tristel’s proprietary chlorine dioxide chemistry is effective against SARS-CoV-2 in 30 seconds.
