Easy to mix solutions using Rhizopon tablets 

Tips:

  • Most applications require mixing the tablets in water only.
  • The active ingredients entirely dissolve during mixing.
  • To save time and to achieve total mixing of a large number of tablets use an electric hand blender. Total mixing using a blender takes only a few seconds. Mix an adequate amount of liquid to assure adequate blender action. You might see some foam and particles on top of the solution; these are inert particles which do not affect the results.
  • Mix solution for one time use. Discard the unused portion.
  • Active Ingredients entirely dissolve in water up to 10 tablets per liter (500 PPM AI) and in water and some alcohol to 400 tablets per liter (20000 PPM AI).
  • Use a plastic container. Do not use metal.
  • Water: use clean water preferably distilled or de-ionized.
  • Alcohol: use methyl or isopropyl or ethyl.
  • Dissolve tablets at 68F - 80F. The warmer temperature speeds the dissolving.

Each Rhizopon AA Water Soluble Tablet (250 mg) contains

  • 50 mg of the Active Ingredient (AI).
  • One tablet in one liter of solution contains 50 parts per million (PPM) of the Active Ingredient (AI).
