Antimicrobial Chemical/Registration Number Indexes

These are listings of EPA's registered antimicrobial products effective against certain blood borne/body fluid pathogens, Mycobacteria spp (tubercle bacteria), human HIV-1 virus, Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C virus as well as products classified as sterilizers and products used for medical wastes. The lists are organized alphabetically by product names and by numerical order of their EPA Reg#. Information are current as of December 2, 2002.

Only antimicrobial products from the primary registrants are included in the lists. All EPA’s registered pesticides must have an EPA registration number (EPA Reg#). The EPA Registration number forprimary registrants consists of two set of numbers separated by a hyphen (-), for example EPA Reg#001234-000012. The first set of numbers refers to the registrant’s identification number and the second set of numbers represents the product identification number. A distributor’s product may use a different name, but must have the first two sets of EPA Reg# of the primary registrant, plus a third set of numbers that represents the Distributor/ Relabeler Identification number, for example EPA Reg#001234-000012-000567. An establishment number (EPA Est#) is the place where the pesticide, formulation or device is produced and it is indicated by a set of codes which consist of the registrant’s number followed by the State where the product is made and facility number.

The above lists are updated periodically to reflect label changes, cancellations, and transfers of product registrations. Information derived from the above list does not constitute a label replacement or a recommendation. Before applying any antimicrobial product, users must determine if the product is approved for the intended use site/pest. Check the container/package label to determine if the intended use site/pest is written on the label. Carefully read and follow all label instructions before using any antimicrobial product. It is against the law to use product inconsistent with labeling instructions. To obtain a pesticide product label enter the EPA Reg# of the primary product in the search query bar of the Pesticide Product Label System (PPLS) Search . For more information on PPLS see the PPLS description and instructions.
