SAN FRANCISCO, March 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Medizone International, Inc. announced today that it has successfully completed the first full round of room scale testing with its AsepticSure(TM) sterilization system. "Across the board," commented Dr Michael Shannon, "all pathogens of cause with HAIs were completely eliminated from stainless steel surfaces at concentrations well above 6 log. These results have confirmed the laboratory findings reported earlier this year, but what is of even greater significance are the insights gained into the technical modifications necessary to accommodate the unique requirements of decontaminating within a hospital environment."
To meet the unique challenges of hospital acquired infections, Medizone has assembled an international team of professional engineers who are finalizing design of our first pre-manufacturing prototype to be used in hospital beta testing, which will commence later this spring. Medizone will build four highly instrumented prototype units for use in its hospital program, thereby enabling precise performance assessment of all AsepticSure(TM) systems as concurrent outcome measures, which will form the basis for final production design work, manufacturing and ultimately commercialization later this year.
