AiroCide TiO2 stops anthrax in its tracks

A device used to remove ethylene gas from produce and floral handling areas has been converted into a machine that controls the cross-contamination of anthrax.

Produced by KES Science & Technology Inc, AiroCide TiO2 uses space-certified technology that evolved from National Aeronautics & Space Administration-financed research. Laboratory tests published Dec 3, 2001 by microbiologists from the University of Wisconsin prove AiroCide TiO2 kills up to 93.3% of anthrax spores in a single pass through its reactor.

AiroCide TiO2 uses a patented combination of ultraviolet light and titanium dioxide photo catalysis both to irradiate and oxidize anthrax spores and myriad other organisms. The spread of influenza A, streptococcus, Legionella, E coli, harmful molds, fungi, and other pathogens can also be controlled.

Mounted to the wall or ceiling, AiroCide TiO2 reduces the risk of spreading deadly spores to other areas. For more details, phone KES at 800-236-1846 or access www.kes-pro.com.
