6 log reduction under 1 hour, nothing new!

Once again Edwin G. Marshall attempting to play catch up?

The HJ-30i is a fully automated system that has been successfully piloted in U.S. hospitals during the past year, where it has consistently demonstrated its capability to achieve a predictable kill greater than 6-log for both dry spore pathogens and vegetative bacteria. This technology, using aqueous PAA, boasts a 2.3 – 2.6 D-Value (meaning a 90% kill within only 2.3 to 2.6 minutes of treatment) for G. stearothermophilus, the gold standard for showing pathogen kill, as reported by Raven Biological Labs, a highly recognized third party testing facility. Another first for the industry. Treated surfaces in large spaces have continued to show “no growth” for both spores and vegetative bacteria.

Altapure, LLC has worked jointly with ITT Exelis (NYSE: XLS), a top-tier global aerospace, defense, and information solutions company, to develop the HJ-30i with the proven capability to fully eradicate viruses, bacteria, spores, and fungi, in a 3,000 cubic foot space in less than 10 minutes of full contact time, and a total treatment time including air filtering, of 30-45 minutes start to finish.

Unfortunately Medizone still has no HAI reduction data....and based on the Johns Hopkins HPV study (see below) any meaningful data may be years away!


Quote: "Some 6,350 patient admissions to JHH were closely tracked as part of the two-and-a-half-year analysis, as patients moved into and out of 180 private hospital rooms."
