The hydroxyl radicals and hypochlorous acid contained in electrolyzed water work together to destroy the spikes on the surface of a virus. This allows it to wrap around, disinfect, and deodorize airborne viruses, bacteria and mold, as well as pollen, dust mite feces and shells, and odor molecules.
Pressing the Power Mist mode button discharges disinfectant electrolytic mist at full power for about 30 minutes. This quickly suppresses even bacteria and viruses that have adhered to your clothing or hair while you were outdoors.
Test institute: Kitasato Research Center of Environmental Sciences. Disinfectant electrolytic mist was released into a 1-cubic-meter test chamber containing airborne bacteria. With the air purifier operated in normal mode and power mist mode, bacteria were collected periodically and the number of airborne bacteria were evaluated.
There are many objects in a room, like tables and sofas, that obstruct the flow of air. To resolve this problem, SANYO uses a system that disperses electrolytic mist in three directions: upward, to the left, and to the right. This long-lasting disinfectant mist envelops a room to reach every spot, even areas adjacent to furniture.
