HPUV™ Rapid Inactivation of Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) by Kurt Garrett

Herpes simplex Test at UNC-CH

The HSV test validated the high efficacy of HPUV™ and according to Dr. Bachenheimer, gave the fastest performance in his experience, one million colonies inactivated in 3 seconds.

We can realize opportunities for HPUV™ to increase the breath of scientific knowledge by commercializing a number of related products. Researchers will find usefulness in our product/instruments that will give them the capacity to routinely and easily disrupt DNA. They will marvel at the possibility of manipulating various types of biological materials especially in their efforts to engineer machines for a myriad of medical and scientific endeavors.
