Aquatabs are incredibly effective in killing the bacteria responsible for cholera. Independent studies and our own ongoing performance checks validate we kill 99.9999%* of vibrio cholerae in water.
To provide a stronger disinfection dose for instant kill of pathogens, the Aquatabs InLine and Aquatabs Flo use TCCA, or Trichloroisocyanuric acid. As a very weak acid, TCCA delivers the most effective form of chlorine-based disinfection – hypochlorous acid.
