A NEW TOOL FOR RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT

KASUMIN is a novel bactericide. Kasugamycin - the active ingredient in KASUMIN - features a unique mode of action different from other currently registered bactericides, which makes it an excellent new resistance management tool. KASUMIN is new to the Canadian market, but it was discovered in Japan in 1963 and has been used commercially around the globe since 1965. It’s currently registered for use in eight countries.
