Consideration of the results of the norovirus countermeasure test.
Using the sterilizing air towel "New Super M," a 99.99% reduction in 10 seconds.
New Super M (CS-1500) Sterilizing Air Towel, a combined hot air and hand sterilization device, conducted tests using only the UV-C lamp due to the circumstances of the testing organization, among its two sterilization functions (135°C hot air and UV-C lamp). As a substitute virus for norovirus, which cannot be cultured in cells, we used feline calicivirus, recommended by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), from the same family of vesivirus. As a result, the infectious titer (number of viral particles) decreased by 99.9602% with 5 seconds of exposure and by 99.9998% with 10 seconds of exposure. In addition, the effectiveness is maximized by simultaneous exposure to the other sterilization function of high-temperature 135°C hot air. For norovirus prevention, it is important to thoroughly remove bacteria that lurk deep within the unique pores and wrinkles of the hands. To ensure complete drying and temperature effects reach inside the pores and wrinkles, we recommend rubbing both hands together while using the device. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
