Suttocide A Preservative
Suttocide A Preservative is a single preservative derived from the naturally occurring amino acid Glycine. It is a broad spectrum and cost effective antimicrobial that is active against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and mold. It is an ideal preservative for preserving soap or other alkaline products, while Suttocide A's naturally high ph (10 - 12) also makes it a great neutralizer of gelling agents like TC-Carbomer FD20. When used in combination with another preservative it is even more effective for preserving complex or difficult to preserve formulations.
