Initially, the founders created it for hospitals but it’s going on the market for commercial use – offices, gyms, hotels, airlines, voting booths – everywhere it’s needed so we can get back to life. NuvaWave was tested at Texas Biomed, an independent, nonprofit research institute whose mission is to protect our global community from the threats of infectious diseases through cutting-edge research. The results from the rigorous study completed at Texas Biomedical Research Institute demonstrated that NuvaWave killed >99.9% of the live virus in just two seconds.
For nearly three-quarters of a century, the Institute has delivered high quality and reliable scientific data, spanning basic discovery through preclinical development,” explained Dr. Cory Hallam, Professor and Vice President for Business Development at Texas Biomed. “The scientists at Texas Biomed know how to handle the live virus in their biosafety level 3 (BSL-3) lab and to use protocols to safely mimic real-world conditions that helped us document the effectiveness of NuvaWave,” added Dr. Nicholas Medendorp, CEO of UV Innovators. “NuvaWave .
