Help us identify alternatives to using DBNPA for disinfection of food vessels and machinery

We are looking for information on chemical and non-chemical alternatives and substitutes to using the active substance 2,2-dibromo-2-cyanoacetamide (DBNPA) (EC 233-539-7, CAS 10222-01-2) in the disinfection of food vessels and machinery (product-type 4). The active substance is a potential candidate for substitution, as the draft assessment report indicates it has endocrine disrupting properties. Have your say in our public consultation by 18 January 2019.
