The bottle says:

Active Ingredients:
5-Chloro-2-methyl-3(2H)-isothiazolone 0.1350%
2-methyl-3(2H)-isothiazolone 0.0412%
Inert Ingredients 99.8238%

The rest of which is about how to handle it and first aid procedures which you would get if you ordered from this company.

I'm glad to see that this is relatively non-toxic as far as ingestion goes which means that it could be used in the media and not effect anyone who eats the mushrooms. Testing still needs to be done on whether it effects growth.

Thanks, PsiliPharm
