Title: Metricide Dilution (Glutaraldehyde 2.6%)
Post by: touchofsky on November 03, 2012, 02:00:48 PM
I know I read on the forum the dilution for glutaraldehyde 2.6%, but I can't seem to find the post now. 

Could anyone give me that dilution rate for 2.6% Glutaraldehyde.
thanks!

Yes, a gallon goes a long way!  I ended up just diluting it 1:1 (distilled water) since the calculator didn't work for me.  I believe Excel is 1.5%, so I figured that is close enough.
