About Peracetic Acid
Peracetic acid (also known as peroxyacetic acid, or PAA), is an organic compound with the formula CH3CO3H. This organic peroxide is a colorless liquid with a characteristic acrid odor reminiscent of acetic acid. It can be highly corrosive. Peracetic acid is a weaker acid than the parent acetic acid, with a pKa of 8.2.
Peracetic acid (PAA) is produced by combining acetic acid (vinegar) and hydrogen peroxide. The result is a peroxide version of acetic acid (vinegar) that has a very distinctive and a pungent vinegary smell.
Peracetic acid is an organic acid generated by reacting acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide. Peracetic acid is a reactive byproduct made from the mix of acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide. Acetic acid is the main component in vinegar next to the water. An antiseptic, it has proven capability to counter a broad spectrum of bacteria. Hydrogen peroxide is a known oxidizer and bleaching agent. It is in medical treatment for having antiseptic properties.
The US Environmental Protection Agency approved peracetic acid as an indoor antimicrobial disinfectant in 1985. However, the food processing industry began using the acid way back in the 1950s to clear fungus on fruits and vegetables. The 1980s saw large-scale utilization of the decontaminant to sterilize equipment and storage in medical and other industries.

Peracetic Acid Safety
Breathing Peroxyacetic Acid can irritate the lungs causing coughing and/or shortness of breath (PDF).
Peracetic acid in low concentrations can irritate skin and eyes, as well as cause throat and breathing difficulties. However, in concentrated form, it can be harmful by causing serious eye and skin damage.
Exposure to lethal concentrations of peracetic acid causes hemorrhage, edema, and consolidation of the lungs, whereas nonlethal concentrations cause transient weight loss or reduced weight gain in addition to slight to moderate signs of respiratory tract irritation.
