21st Century Goods: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS)

Wein AS150MM Air Purifier Technology For Added Protection Against Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) SARS 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 microdroplets from reaching the nose, mouth and eyes.

The Wein AS150MM (mini mate) 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 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.

The results were presented to the European Aerosol Conference in Leipzig, 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 ionically charged particles including bacterial or viral microdroplets, dust, smoke , pollens, allergens or anything else that is light enough to float in the air in 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, turbuence and gravity. In other words, it can be the most lethal pathogen known to man, but it will still be controlled by these physical forces.

In addition, surgical masks may be coated with viral microdroplets very near a user's mouth nose and eyes wheras the Wein AirSupply Minimate AS150MM repels these SARS microdroplets or any aerosol away from the wearer and does not store these infectious agents on the surface .

The mask also does not protect the eyes at all . For added protection, a surgical mask together with the Minimate could also be employed.

DISCLAIMER:

THE WEIN AS150MM NOR ANY OTHER GERMICIDAL PROTECTIVE TECHNOLOGY CAN OFFER A 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.
