TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc.® (“TOMI”, “the Company”)
(NASDAQ: TOMZ), a global company specializing in disinfection and
decontamination, reports that in a recent study with the University
of Virginia’s Office of the Vice President for Research, Center of
Comparative Medicine the Company’s SteraMist Surface Unit,
utilizing its premier Binary Ionization Technology (BIT™) Solution,
achieved a kill on SARS CoV-2 Virus in five seconds, in a real
world experience setting.
The UVA study demonstrated a significant reduction at
5-second spray, 7-minute dwell, no wet contact time; and more
importantly, when assayed for viable Plaque Forming Units (PFUs)
there was no viable virus detected after all exposure methods.
There was reduction in the number of SARS CoV-2 PFUs in all
exposure methods used to the point where there was no detectable
viable coronavirus. The successful study was conducted at the
University of Virginia’s Biosafety Level 3 facility, which is
approved for Select Agent research by the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention.
Dr. Halden Shane said, “TOMI has the utmost confidence in the
efficacy of our disinfection and decontamination capabilities and
we welcome opportunities like this recent study to reinforce our
claims with the validation of successful scientific studies.
Across the world, the focus on killing coronavirus variants
has never been sharper. This study confirms user Real World
Experience (RWE) with our technology, and our SteraMist equipment +
Binary Ionization Technology (BIT™) Solution combination has once
again proved that our revolutionary solution is second to none when
it comes to quick results and outstanding materials
compatibility.”
“These are challenging times from a public health and safety
standpoint, and as this successful combined study has demonstrated,
from ambulance, life flight, and hospital use to global vaccine
production sites and COVID testing supply manufacturing, SteraMist
is continually ‘Innovating for a Safer World,” Dr. Shane
concluded.
