SHEET
E.P.A. Reg. No. 8959-53 E.P.A.. Est. No.
42291-GA-1 U.S.PATENT 5,407,899 |
| Registered for use in:
Lakes, Potable Water Reservoirs, Farm, Fish and
Industrial Ponds, Fish Hatcheries and Raceways,
Irrigation Conveyance Systems: Ditches, Canals,
Laterals |
WHAT IS CUTRINE®-ULTRA?
CUTRINE®-ULTRA is an algaecide with an
emulsified surfactant, which controls existing algae
including many tolerant species and inhibits rapid
re-infestation. CUTRINE®-ULTRA also acts as a herbicide
in controlling the rooted underwater weed Hydrilla
verticillata. |
BASIC FACTS:
CUTRINE®-ULTRA- Is a liquid formulation which
contains 9.0% active ingredient with an emulsified
surfactant.
- Contains 0.909 pounds of copper per
gallon.
- Has a specific gravity of 1.21 (10.1 lbs. per
gallon).
- Controls algae at 0.2 to 1.0 ppm copper and
hydrilla at 0.4 to 1.0 ppm copper.
- Controls all three
forms of algae: planktonic, filamentous and
chara
|
ADVANTAGES:- CUTRINE®-ULTRA is
U.S.E.P.A. registered for use in drinking water
reservoirs, farm fish and industrial ponds, lakes, fish
hatcheries and raceways, irrigation water conveyance
systems such as canals, laterals and
ditches.
- CUTRINE®-ULTRA is far less corrosive to
equipment and other metal surfaces than other chelated
copper compounds.
- CUTRINE®-ULTRA treated water can be
used for swimming, domestic uses and livestock watering
immediately after chemical application.
- Water from
treated lakes, ponds, irrigation systems and golf course
water hazards may be used to irrigate turf, fairways,
putting greens and ornamental plants.
- Fish can be
caught and consumed immediately after CUTRINE®-ULTRA
application.
- CUTRINE®-ULTRA will not plate-out or
precipitate under normal storage conditions nor does the
copper in CUTRINE®-ULTRA precipitate out and become
ineffective in alkaline or hard water.
- CUTRINE®-ULTRA
has been used successfully in trout ponds which
contained cold, hard water.
- CUTRINE®-ULTRA effectively controls the
noxious submersed weed, Hydrilla verticillata, without
requiring post-treatment water use restrictions
associated with other herbicides.
- CUTRINE®-ULTRA is
compatible in tank mixes with the aquatic herbicides
Weedtrine®-D, Reward and Aquathol K.
- CUTRINE®-ULTRA
can be applied to flowing water using a continuous
delivery drip system. It has been used effectively in
trout raceways and irrigation canals.

APPLICATION
RATES:
CUTRINE®-ULTRA - is applied at a rate of
0.6 to 2.4 gallons per acre-foot (43,560 cubic feet) of
water to be treated for planktonic and filamentous
algae, 1.2 to 3.0 gallons per acre-foot for Chara and
Nitella and 1.2 to 3.0 gallons per acre-foot for
Hydrilla. |
METHOD OF
APPLICATION:
CUTRINE®-ULTRA should be diluted
with at least 9 parts of water to facilitate even
distribution during application. Surface spray is most
practical for treatment of planktonic and filamentous
algae. Bottom-growing algae should be treated by
underwater injection or by application of CUTRINE®-PLUS
GRANULAR. Hydrilla can be treated by surface spray or
underwater injection.
|
CONTAINER
SIZES:
CUTRINE®-ULTRA is available in 2 1/2
gallon (packed 2 to a case), 5 gallon, 30 gallon, 55
gallon and 275 gallon containers. |
NOTE:
CUTRINE®-ULTRA needs sunlight
to optimize effectiveness.
CUTRINE®-ULTRA is is
effective on many tolerant species of algae, but is not
completely effective against Pithophora and
diatoms.
CUTRINE®-ULTRA can be toxic to trout, at the
recommended application rates, if the water has less
than 50 ppm of carbonate hardness (soft water). Do not
use in waters containing Koi and hybrid goldfish. Not
intended for use in small volume, garden pond
systems.
|
OF SPECIAL
INTEREST:
CUTRINE®-ULTRA has proven to be a
favorite algaecide for professional applicators because
of its enhanced effectiveness attributed to the presence of emulsified surfactants. It can reduce or eliminate taste and odor
problems caused by geosmin and MIB producing blue-green
algae. It can be used to reduce the incidence of
secondary bacterial or fungal infections by reducing the
phytoplanktonic irritants which can expose the gill
surfaces of the fish.
