Protecting People and Pets

The Safe Place Commpany™ helps the Pet Care industry keep patients and personnel safe, health and ProTech-ed.

In the past 10 years, emergences of fatal infectious diseases have originated in sheltered populations. Novel potential pathogens such as canine circoviruses, bocavirus, kobuvirus, and sapovirus, as well as feline noroviruses, have all been discovered in sheltered animals. Other diseases include respiratory, neurologic, and systemic streptococcal infections (dog and cat); canine influenza; hemorrhagic respiratory Escherichia coli (dog) infection; and virulent systemic feline calicivirus infection.

Sheltered animals are faced with increased personal health risks, support infectious disease transmission to the community pet population, and have relatively unguarded access to humans. In a herd health situation such as a shelter, there is merit in establishing an etiologic diagnosis both for disease management and for recognition of potential zoonoses. Stressed animals support higher infection and

shedding rates of potential pathogens such as feline enteric coronavirus, canine enteric coronavirus (CECoV), feline herpesvirus, and feline calicivirus.

The relatively unpredictable crowding and transience of a shelter population can support an explosive expansion of viral or bacterial organisms with periodic host movement or other pathogen population bottlenecks, a situation that could theoretically support the selection of pathogen variants.

PronTech™ is a patented antimicrobial that has been used in commercial animal settings for decades, including dairy and feed lots, and in recent years has found increasing public applications such as in hospitals and schools. It was recently tested and given FDA approval for the effective elimination and long-lasting prevention (more than 24 hours between application) of the human Covid-19 virus.

The Safe Place Company™ has strategically adapted the concept of HACCP for several types of environments in order to excel at each one of the operation’s critical control points where diseases can be transmitted. HACCP with the broadbased application of the PRONTECH TECHNOLOGY can prevent and eliminate a broad spectrum of harmful pathogens from all surfaces and can be effectively used in any environment.

Protocols

What is HACCP?

Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) is a 1996 FDA protocol to mitigate biological, chemical and physical hazards for the safety and quality of food preparation by identifying unsafe links in the food processing chain. HACCP assures maximum efficacy and is preferred by professionals around the world.

HACCP is based on seven basic principles:

1. Conduct a hazard analysis

2. Determine critical control points

3. Establish critical limits

4. Establish monitoring limits

5. Establish corrective actions

6. Establish verification procedures

7. Establish effective record keeping procedures

The Safe Place Company™ has applied HACCP to new CDC guidelines for in-room classes to help the pet care industry:

1. Minimize diseases caused by pathogens which can be transmitted from one individual human or animal to another.

2. Minimize the risk of transmission by following guidelines provided by UPI.

3. Follow up a Pathogen Elimination Control Plan in order to avoid the spread of diseases.

4. Follow up a regular disinfection program in order to minimize the risk of contamination.

5. Understand the importance of using a registered product for disinfection.

Common Endemic Diseases in Animal Shelters and Boarding Environments include Feline Herpesvirus, Canine Distemper Virus, Canine Influenza, Feline Calicivirus, Feline and Canine Parvoviruses, Feline Infectious Peritonitis, and Hemolytic Streptococci just to name a few.

And while The Safe Place Company™ is intensely focused on the elimination and protection from Covid-19, we are addressing a broad range of biological hazards that can be divided into three categories: microorganisms, parasites and prions. It has been reported that microorganisms are the principal sources of food borne diseases.

Parasites

Cysticercoid, Tenia spp., trematodes, nematodes, cestodes, Trichinella spp., Echinococcus spp., Cryptococcus spp. and Anisakis spp. are commonly isolated parasites from foods. Raw meat and fish are the riskiest foods for parasite infections.

Prions

Prions are considered as causative agent of “Bovine Spongiform Encephalitis” (BSE). They are resistant to heat treatments and mainly isolated.

Viruses

Hepatitis A, poliovirus, rotavirus, orthomyxovirus, influenza, astrovirus and Norwalk viruses are transmitted to man by foods, drinking water and air. Contamination occurs through faucal oral route.

Molds

Molds represent health hazards because of their toxic metabolites called mycotoxins. Mycotoxins may be produced in some plants in the field or during drying and storage under improper conditions.

Algae

Some types of algae such as Cyanobacteria (blue green algae) and Pyrrophyta (dinoflagellates) produce toxic compounds for compounds for human beings and animals. Poisoning occur after consumption of some seafood fed with these toxic algae.

Bacteria

Food borne diseases caused by performed toxins are referred to as food poisoning (intoxications), whereas food disorders cased by bacterial growth or endotoxin production in the body after ingestion are call food infections. It is very important to understand that bacteria can survive on any surface and remain there until the conditions are right to develop into diseases. They do not necessarily have to be located in food. Bacteria can be transmitted by any human or animal bodily fluids to any surface and to other humans or animals.
