The activity of CMIT/MIT, BIT, and DMO was enhanced when used in combination with DOWICIL QK-20
Antimicrobial (Note: all preservative concentrations are given as product and have not been adjusted to account
for the concentration of the active). When DOWICIL QK-20 Antimicrobial was used to enhance the performance
of CMIT/MIT, the level of in-can preservation was decreased from 1700 ppm to 425 ppm with the addition of
125 ppm of DOWICIL QK-20 Antimicrobial. Similarly, a minimum concentration of 1500 ppm of BIT was necessary
when the preservative was used alone but, when used in combination with 250 ppm DOWICIL QK-20
Antimicrobial, a concentration of only 375 ppm was required to maintain the 5.5 log kill for 28 days. DMO was
effective at a minimum concentration of 1250 ppm, but when combined with 125 ppm of DOWICIL QK-20
Antimicrobial, only 80 ppm was required to maintain the 7 log kill for 28 days. In all three cases, the use of
DOWICIL QK-20 Antimicrobial as a co-preservative resulted in comparable efficacy with considerably lower
concentrations of the primary preservative.These results in the generic paint formulation can be seen in the
following tables.
