Aquaculture Disinfectant Listing Scheme - Product Listings

Evans Vanodine International plc is the first company to have products listed on the Aquaculture Disinfectant Listing Scheme. The list is operated on behalf of Defra by the Fish Health Inspectorate (FHI) at the Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (Cefas). It is also supported by Marine Scotland Science and Agri-Food and Biosciences Institute, Northern Ireland (AFBINI).

FAM 30 and VANOQUAT NEW FORMULATION are listed as effective against bacterial diseases of relevance to aquaculture.The tests to confirm this effectiveness (EN 1656 Modified) were carried out in our UKAS Accredited Microbiology Laboratory.

Test reports were submitted to CEFAS for assessment before listing was granted. The list is publicly available (www.efishbusiness.co.uk/disinfectant-listing/disinfectant-listing-scheme-list.asp) and can be used by aquaculture and related industries to aid selection of effective disinfectants.
