Aquatrol Acriflavine
Acriflavine is a compound yellow dye that has
growth-inhibiting, or bacteriostatic activity. It has
broad spectrum usage combining both antibacterial
and antiparasitic properties.
Acriflavine has a low toxicity and is commonly used
by shippers to prevent infection of wounds during
fish transport.
Acriflavine works by combining with bacterial DNA
and inhibiting its replication. Acriflavine is
recommended for the treatment of external bacteria
and protozoan infections. Caution should be used
if treating a pond containing live plants.
As with all chemical treatments, activated carbon
should be removed and aeration should be
maintained during treatment period. A partial water
change is recommended following the treatment
period. Although toxicity is low, sensitivity to
acriflavine may vary with species.
