Is Your Tubing Protected Against Microbes?
Microorganisms are living cells so small that most can
only be seen with a microscope -- they are a type of microorganism found
everywhere and include bacteria, fungi and algae. Growth of microbes on many
materials can lead to foul odors, discoloration and formation of mildew and
biofilm. In the case of tubing, microbes can contaminate the material being
transferred, as well as degrade the tubing itself.
Antimicrobial Technology
Tygon® Silver Antimicrobial Tubing is formulated with a
silver based compound on the inner surface at the point of fluid contact; the
tubing outer surface can be treated in cases where bacterial buildup on the O.D.
is a concern.
