Portable Sterilization System
I’m glad I don’t have a microscope to truly see what might be living on the floors and surfaces of my ambulance. Despite our best efforts to maintain a sterile environment, there’s probably a large colony of strange microscopic creatures that call my ambulance home. TheAmbu-Stat from Emergency Products & Researchuses a handheld electrostatic fogger to dispense a proprietary solution of hydrogen peroxide, peracetic acid and acetic acid, along with an olfactory alert additive, to rid spaces of unwanted sporicidal, bacterial, fungicidal, mycobactericidal and virucidal activity. The biodegradable, environmentally safe solution produces no toxic vapors, is easily disposable and will have a significant impact to both the health and safety of your crews and your patients. The system is portable, allowing you to use it inside and outside of your rig–in bunk rooms, locker rooms, decon areas and bay space.
