NanoRAD Coating and Film Spray Improve Disinfection in Multiple Hospital Settings - Results

• Continuous Disinfection Technology: Explore how NanoRAD-enabled products provide around-the-clock disinfection in an 800-bed level 1 trauma hospital, particularly focusing on the Emergency Department (ED), a newly opened Pre-Operative (Pre-Op) Ward, and the Pre-Op waiting room. Discover how silver-mediated cerium oxide (AgCNP) nanoparticles in NanoRAD generate hydrogen peroxide upon encountering bacteria, viruses, and fungi at both micro and nanoscales.
• Surface Application Versatility: Learn about the diverse range of surfaces NanoRAD coatings and films are applied to within the hospital setting, including floors, bathrooms, chairs, privacy curtains, sharps boxes, and various high-touch surfaces. Understand how these applications contribute to the reduction of bacterial loads, as determined through swabbing and plating with MC-Media Pads.
• Enhanced Bioburden Reduction: Gain insights from the study’s findings, indicating a remarkable 69% to 90% enhancement in bioburden reduction over a 6-month period when NanoRAD-treated surfaces are compared to standard cleaning protocols alone. Delve into the specific efficacy of NanoRAD Film Spray on privacy curtains, maintaining effectiveness for up to 6 weeks post-application, thereby offering prolonged protection against microbial contamination.
