  (Nominal concentrations)

  
  How Supplied:

• 32-oz. (946 ml.) container: Shipping carton (case of 12 containers). Kit includes: 1 PeraSidual and 1 PeraChek.
• 2.5-gallon (2000 ml.) container: Shipping carton (case of 2 containers). Kit includes: 1 PeraSidual and 1 PeraChek

  Dilution Requirements:

• Water used for dilution must meet or exceed AAMI Standards for Hemodialysis Systems (May 14, 1982), and AAMI Recommended Practice, Reuse of Hemodialyzers (July 1986).
• Water must be produced by reverse osmosis or pre-filtered through a 1.2 micron or smaller filter.
• Water temperature should be 59^oF-75^oF (15^oC-24^oC).

  Storage Conditions (Concentrate and Use-Dilution):

• Store in shipping containers to protect from light.
• Store upright to prevent leaking from vented caps.
• Store at temperature between 86^oF (30^oC) and 32^oF (0^oC). DO NOT FREEZE

  Shelf Life and Expiration Date

• In concentrated form, stability is maintained for one year when properly stored. An expiration date is assigned at the time of manufacture.
• Once diluted per instructions, the resulting solution must be used within seven (7) days or by the concentrate's expiration date, whichever is sooner. The use period is a maximum limit and the solution must not be used when the maximum concentration of the active ingredient has dropped below the minimum effective concentration regardless of the number of days in use.
• Following dilution, Peracidin solution exhibits a gradual loss of potency at a rate such that 50% of the active ingredients remain after a 7-day period. This deterioration has been considered when listing concentrations of active ingredients and when calculating the amount of Peracidin placed in the dialyzer.

  Disposal

  Heavily diluted Peracidin may be safely disposed of in sewer systems and normal waste removal facilities. Empty containers should be triple rinsed and recycled or directed to approved landfills or incinerator sites.
