Use ALKEN ENZ-ODOR® 4-10XNF manufacturing concentrate as 10% to 20% of your finished dry product formulation, depending on whether you want your finished product to have a total count of 2 billion CFU/gram, suitable for use on animal litter or bedding or 4 billion CFU/gram, suitable for use in livestock manure odor treatment. Acceptable fillers include: animal feed grade wheat bran, oat bran, rice bran, corn starch, glucose, sodium bicarbonate and/or dolomitic limestone, if ready-to-use product is meant to be edible. While all of these are acceptable and will not harm the bacteria in this formula, they will not reproduce the results of Alken Enz-Odor® 4 and Alken Enz-Odor® 4-2XFF. Alternatively, you can license the natural, edible ingredient formula that words synergistically with this microbial consortium for optimum performance. See ready-to-use product bulletins for application of formulated products. Hot water, bleach, disinfectants, and strongly alkaline detergents will deactivate or kill the bacteria, and should not be mixed with the product, nor used as a pre-cleaner. If desired, disinfectant can be applied not less than 2 hours after treatment with finished product that contains ALKEN ENZ-ODOR® 4-10XNF. We advise use of stabilized liquid
