Laboratory Test Summary of ABC Research Reports
ABC Research Corporation conducted tests in December 2005 entitled: "The Disinfection Efficacy of Gaseous Ozone Treatments against Selected Microorganisms Inoculated onto Dry and Wet Surfaces."
ABC Test Dry 8 Hour
ABC Test Wet 8 Hour
Report Summary
There was progressive inactivation efficacy with increasing exposure times to ozone. For dry bacteria there was at least a one log unit (or >90%) reduction evidenced for all treatment times. For bacteria in a wet environment, there was at least a one log unit (or >90%) reduction observed after 60 min. or more of treatment. The 8 hour ozone treatment was extremely effective for all bacteria in a dry or wet environment. There was no surviving bacteria of any type detected after the 8 hr. ozone treatment in dry or wet environments with reductions ranging from > 7.74 to >8.94 log-units in the wet environment. The was no surviving Stachybotrys chartarum detected in a wet environment after the 30 and 60 min. ozone treatments with a >4.45 log unit reduction observed.
Proven Lab Results
Laboratory reports have demonstrate the following disinfection rates: Stachybotrys Chartarum (Black Mold) 99.996% within 60 minutes (wet or dry) Anthrax 99.996% within 24 hours E coli >99.997% within 24 hours Salmonella >99.999993% within 24 hours Listeria > 99.99994% within 24 hours Staphylococcus > 99.999996% within 24 hours
Pest Control
Ozone has shown to be effective in the killing of common insects and pests. In controlled laboratory testing, our technology has demonstrated the following:
|
Species | Cloth Covered Container | Open Top Container |
|
Bed Bugs | 100% | 100% |
|
Am. House Dust Mites | N/A | 100% |
|
German Cockroaches | 100% | 100% |
|
Confused Flour Beetles | 86% | 100% |
Insect Control Research, Inc., Baltimore, MD - June, 2006
Based on these results and encouraging reports from the field, we are rapidly developing our pest control system.
