Wein AS150MM Technology For Added Protection Against SARS SARS
(Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) infection may spread not only by touch but also by viral coating on
micro droplets expelled in human coughing, sneezing, talking and respiration to
those nearby. According to the CDC a surgical mask is helpful but does not stop
all of the micro droplets from reaching the nose, mouth and eyes. The
Wein AS150MM has been extensively tested under strict laboratory conditions
including aircraft cabin simulation by leading aerosol authorities and
microbiologists at the University of Cincinnati School of Medicine. Their
toxic aerosol exposure assessment laboratories concluded that the Wein AS150MM
can substantially reduce the concentration of toxic Aerosols from .3 to 3
microns which are the respirable fraction that settles deep in the lungs to
cause infection. SARS
coated micro droplets are well within the tested particle size specification.
The results were presented to the European Aerosol Conference in Leipzig,
Germany and were published in the Journal of Aerosol Science seminar issue.
The
Wein AS150MM creates a toxic particle exclusion zone in front of the wearer's
mouth, nose and eyes. The unit substantially repels these charged particles
including bacteria viral micro-droplets, dust, smoke, pollens, allergens or
anything that is light enough to float in the air away from the breathing zone.
Considerable
testing also indicates that the Wein AS150MM ionic space charge is a lethal
environment for many types of germs so those that are not repelled may be killed
before entering the breathing zone. According
to experts who peer reviewed the studies, the physical concentration reduction
does not depend on the infectivity of the particle as long as it is affected by
the forces of electrostatics, diffusion, turbulence and gravity. "It can be
the most lethal pathogen known to man and it will still be controlled by these
physical forces," says Mr. Weinberg. In
addition, surgical masks may be coated with viral micro-droplets very near a
user's mouth, nose and eyes whereas the Wein AS150MM repels these SARS
micro-droplets or any aerosol away from the wearer and does not store infectious
agents on the surface. The
mask also does not protect the eyes. For
added protection, a surgical mask together with the Wein AS150MM could also be
employed. Disclaimer:
Neither the Wein AS150MM nor any other Germicidal Protective Technology can
offer 100% protection against viral or bacterial infection. These germs can
enter the body by touch contact, hand contamination, or food ingestion.
Accordingly, Wein Products, INC. does not guarantee the AS150MM will protect
against SARS, especially since the wearer could have been infected by airborne
SARS virus prior to use. Stan
