• Nutra OPA does not require special handling. It does, however require mixing with unchlorinated water to follow specified protocols.
• Nutra OPA is not an antibiotic or a chemical that affects DNA. It does not create resistance, and does not require rotation.
• The residual effects of Nutra OPA can last between 48-72 hours as compared to other products containing chlorine which last 2-3 hours only.
