Tergazyme consists primarily of a homogeneous blend of sodium linear alkylaryl sulfonate, phosphates, carbonates, and protease enzyme. Tergazyme is anionic in nature. The protease enzyme in Tergazyme is bacillus licheniformis subtilisin carlsberg, which may be deactivated by 300ppm hypochlorite at 30°C in seconds; 3.5ppm hypochlorite at 38°C for 2min; exposure to pH below 4 for 30min at 60°C; or by heating to 80°C for 10min.
Tergazyme:
Concentrated to save you money

Tergazyme should follow cleaning methods
Soak
Brush
Sponge
Cloth
Ultrasonic
Flow through clean-in-place
Will foam – not for spray or machine use
Directions:
Make a fresh 1% solution (10g/L) in cold or warm water.
If available, use warm water below 55°C.
Clean by soak, circulate, wipe, or ultrasonic methods.
Follow manufacturer's directions for filter membrane cleaning.
Rinse thoroughly, preferably with running water.
For critical cleaning, do final or all rinsing in distilled, deionised, or purified water.
For food contact surfaces, rinse with potable water.
Cleaning Validation Methods:
Test a parameter of rinse water before and after rinsing the cleaned surface, or test the clean surface. No significant change in the parameter indicates no detectable detergent residue. Parameters measured include: pH, conductivity, UV, TOC, HPLC, sodium concentration, phosphorus concentration, anionic detergent concentration using inexpensive detergent water testing kits, surface tension, and surface analysis.
