The World’s First Dry-On-Contact H1N1 Sanitising Spray

A sanitising spray that kills 99.99% of Viruses, Bacteria and Germs is now available for purchase in the UK. The SaniGuard wipes, spray and fogger products were invented by David Morgan, president of DEM Technology in the United States.. After patenting the product he was awarded EPA registration for its use on food contact surfaces in 1996.

One benefit of the spray is that there is no “wet dwell” time, meaning that users don’t need to wipe the product away prior to it being effective. According to US laboratory reports, the product kills 99.99% of germs in 30-45 seconds. It also exceeds the requirements of EN1276 in Europe.

Jim Taylor, formerly president of Smith & Nephew and now CEO of Saniguard International, based in Chorley, Lancashire, said: “SaniGuard contains a unique configuration of quarternary ammonium compounds (QUATS) and other proprietary components, which allow for the elimination of microbes that regular QUATS alone cannot kill.”

The dry-on-contact spray can be used in between regular cleaning on “hot spot” areas such as telephones, computer keyboards, light switches, door knobs and other areas that are frequently used and rarely cleaned. SaniGuard leaves no film or moisture on surfaces.

The spray is effective against Swine Flu, MRSA, HIV-1, herpes, herpes simplex 1 and 2, salmonella typhi, staphylococcus aureus, streptococcus epidermidis and pseudomonas aerginosa and fungi such as trichophyton interdigitolo (Athlete’s foot).

MisterSterile.com also offers the Total Release Fogger in a single-release aerosol, which is claimed to sanitise an entire room with the press of a button within 15-20 minutes. The product is available in small room (155ft²) and large room (625ft²) sizes.

The company says this product is safe for all surfaces and helps to stop the transmission of germs in high traffic areas such as lobbies, waiting rooms, hospital wards, GP surgeries and patient care facilities.

Anti-Bacterial, Anti-Virus Swine Flu prevention products from MisterSterile.com ‘Mr Sterile.com’ is authorised by SaniGuard International and have launched their new website to service the explosive demand for anti-bacterial, anti-virus products.

The Harley Medical Group Has Announced It Is To Offer A Pre And Post Surgery Health Plan

Fitness expert to the stars, Angie Best has written the guide exclusively for leading cosmetic surgery provider, The Harley Medical Group, as a part of the group’s holistic approach to patient care. The Angie Best Cosmetic Surgery Optimal Health Plan identifies the nutrients and exercise regimes the body requires to prepare for surgery and promote a fast recovery following any procedure.

Lisa Littlehales, Head Cosmetic Surgery Nurse at The Harley Medical Group said: “When patients attend their consultation at The Harley Medical Group, it is important to prepare them physically and mentally. We assess if they are fit and well enough to proceed with a major operation, as well as providing essential health awareness warnings such as cutting back on drinking and smoking. We find those who are well prepared for their surgery, with realistic expectations, tend to recover quicker.”

To help aid preparation and recovery even more effectively, The Angie Best Cosmetic Surgery Optimal Health Plan recommends a seven day detox diet plan pre-surgery to cleanse the body of toxins and build up immunity. Once the surgery’s over, the plan recommends nutrient packed recipes to promote tissue healing and boost energy. In addition carefully selected exercises chosen by Angie have been specifically designed to enhance the body’s circulation.

Angie Best, women’s health advisor and nutritionist, said: “My clients in LA often asked me for advice on how best to prepare their bodies for cosmetic surgery and what they needed to do in order to get the best results. This guide gives people advice on how to work with their surgeon by giving their bodies the nutrition they need to promote optimal recovery.”
