Purify-One’s UV Disinfecting Wand receives clinical validation for Covid-19 eradication
Purify-One, manufacturer of ultraviolet disinfecting devices, is in receipt of final audited test results from Microbac Laboratories, (a US-based CDC certified lab) confirming the Purify-One UV Disinfecting Wand is highly effective in destroying SARS-CoV-2, known as Coronavirus, which causes Covid-19.
Mircrobac Laboratories reports say that the Purify-One UV Disinfecting Wand has been shown to be ~97% effective in destroying Covid-19 within seconds of exposure. A relatively high percentage of the residual virus, (while remaining living) has also been shown to no longer be able to replicate - effectively deeming it harmless.
"As a practicing front line Emergency Medicine Physician treating Covid-19 patients on a daily basis, I can assure you this is a vital lifesaving tool that is as effective - if not more than - anything we utilise in a critical care setting," volunteers Dr John Parente, the company's chief medical officer and board-certified emergency medicine physician. "As the first disinfecting device of its kind to receive such favourable results from arguably the most reputable laboratory in the world, we obviously view this as a huge win for our company."
Today, Purify-One serves as an industry-leading provider of UV disinfecting devices to various facets of the transportation, education, hospitality, assisted living, sports and retail sectors. The 30-year industry veteran in the light technology space and leading manufacturer of UV disinfecting devices, its core purpose is to help educate the public on the many advantages of UV disinfecting as a healthier / safer alternative to traditional liquid chemicals and pesticides.
