  Efficacy comparison of same level of total formaldehyde from formalin vs DMDM hydantoin

  Posted by Abdullah on February 12, 2022 at 4:34 pm

  According to this chart 290 ppm DMDM hydantoin that has 92ppm total formaldehyde in it has the same efficacy as 60 ppm formaldehyde. 
  As this data is from supplier, i wanted to ask you

  does the same amount of total formaldehyde for example 200ppm from DMDM hydantoin vs from formalin has the same efficacy or formalin is 50% more effective as in this data?
  
  0.115% DMDM hydantoin 55% (200 ppm total formaldehyde)
  vs
  0.054% formalin ( 200ppm total formaldehyde)
