TB Approved Disinfectant

[Jezza@YourService]

Hi - Feel its worth highlighting as a lot of people have used it, but FAM30 has been suspended from the DEFRA approved list of disinfectants for TB

Others available

Do you know why? @Jezza@YourService. Thanks

Can’t see no reference online- do you have a link? Thanks.

The only reference I can find is here:

Defra, UK - Disinfectants

You think with Fam30 being a rather popular disinfectant any changes would have had more publicity.

Wouldn't know the reason.. but DEFRA are quite making sure these disinfectants are fit for purpose!!

The only reference I can suggest.... is to go onto the DEFRA website.... and you'll see it there!!

Thanks @Jezza@YourService for highlighting.

Thanks @Jezza@YourService for highlighting.

Thanks.. its probably just the case of FAM30 needing to be relicensed (it happens), couple months and it'll be sorted!

True!

FAM30 is back on the Defra Approved Disinfectants List but the Tb dilution rate has changed. It's no longer 1:20 (as will be stated on any cans already in stock on farms) but is now 1:14, making the maths harder and also the opportunity to complete the BT5 C&D form incorrectly a lot easier too....

Some other products (Novagen FP for example) remain suspended so do check the web page before ordering for Tb C&D.

Thanks. Good thing I didn't bin it!

I don't think anything has changed regarding formulation etc, however I'm basing this very much on an assumption that if something was fundamentally wrong we'd have all heard about it by now! I'm still using our existing supply, just very mindful of the changed dilution rate now..

Fam30 is the same as it has always been, it appears that the DEFRA test method gives variable results which has resulted in the new dilution rate.
