What factors determine Velcorin effectiveness?
The effectiveness of Velcorin depends on microbial type, microbial load, pH and other factors. At low doses Velcorin is very effective against yeast and fermentative bacteria. At greater doses Velcorin is also effective against bacteria and certain fungi. The effectiveness of Velcorin also depends on the initial microbial count. Pretreatment of wine must reduce the microbial load to less than 500 microorganisms/mL. Velcorin is not a replacement for good sanitation practices.
