AgION Antimicrobial Silver: The Power of Silver
The Silver has long been valued for his antibacterial properties.
AgION Technologies, Inc.is succeed to use this antimicrobial in a secure, effective and lasting, system that can be used to fight harmful microbes in modern time.
Why microbes are a problem?
Microbes can contaminate food that we eat, water that we drink, and products that we use and touch every day – helping to create conditions of poor hygiene and cleanliness of things that surround us and reducing life and performance of the same.
What is AgION® antimicrobial compound?
AgION has developed an antibacterial compound composed by silver ions and a ceramic material known as zeolite. Its efficacy has been tested against numerous microorganisms such as bacteria, algae and fungus, molds and yeasts. Preliminary laboratory tests show efficacy of product also against viruses. AgION technology is currently used in many applications such as sportswear, footwear, pens, mobile phone, appliances like as refrigerators, air conditioner system, refrigeration and ventilation, chopping boards for kitchen, medical device, water filter, air filter, ice makers, etc..
How does AgION antimicrobial work?
The conventional disinfectants are based on a “instant kill”. When applied on the surface they kill the microbe existing, but don’t do much to fight regrowth. For example, a normal disinfectant instantly kill germs on taps in a public restroom, but as soon as someone touches surface of the faucet to wash your hands, tap will be re-contaminated. On the contrary AgION compound provides continuous protection against microorganisms by releasing silver ions to surface at a slow and steady pace. Silver fights microbes in three ways: breaking cellular metabolism, inhibiting transport processes in the membrane and preventing multiplication of the cells. In bathroom taps AgION compound would fight existing microbes on surface and all new microbes that will settle.
Incorporated as an additive or applied with paint, AgION compound increases life of products. The silver acts as an antimicrobial, preserves product by preventing proliferation and accumulation of bacteria that can damage over time.
N.B. Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
