Gentle UV Bulb Slowly Kills Coronavirus
An emerging leader in non-invasive medical diagnostics, Know Labs, Inc., shared with the public preliminary study results from Texas Biomedical Research Institute (Texas Biomed) indicating the Particle bulb’s ability to inactivate SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus that causes COVID-19.
Multiple tests performed by Texas Biomed demonstrated a 95% reduction in the SARS-CoV-2 virus after 5 hours of exposure to the Particle bulb; a 99% reduction in 6 hours; and a 99.9% reduction in 8 hours.
Rather than using dangerous UV-C light to kill germs quickly, Particle’s method is “low and slow.” Particle bulb disinfects germs using Gentle UV, a blend of UV-A light, for longer periods, allowing it to be used safely near people in homes, businesses, and institutions.
“We were very pleased to work with Texas Biomed because of their reputation as a global leader in eradicating infectious diseases and we’re really excited by these results,” stated Know Labs CEO, Phil Bosua, in a media statement.
In addition, the Particle bulb can kill a number of common household bacteria and germs, for example, E. Coli, Salmonella, and Staphylococcus.
San Antonio, TX-based Texas Biomed is a world-renowned, independent, non-profit biomedical research institute specializing in infectious diseases.
