Zusammenfassung: | Disclosed is a method and apparatus for providing polyiodide resin-enhanced personal protective equipment (PPE) including but not limited to face masks, gloves, gowns and respirators. The disclosed method comprises the application of a polyiodinated ink polymer in or on one or more targeted surfaces of PPE to create a molecular sub-microscopic protective barrier between the equipment and the user. The disclosed system provides a PPE device capable of direct contact kill of organisms. In addition, the system provides for a sustained kill of organisms for up to 96 hours. The resultant PPE device is broadly effective against viral, bacterial, fungicidal and other microbial agents. |
