Laboratory Test Results
As with other products that are to be utilized in cleaning and the eradication of odors and pests, the Complete Ozone, Inc. Annihilator™ Series generators had to be tested for effectiveness. ABC Research Corporation of Gainesville, FL was enlisted to test ozone against a number of diseases and molds. The results and procedures of those tests are provided in full in the links below:
The test of Bacillus atrophaeus, which is used as a surrogate for Bacillus anthracis (anthrax), showed a 99.996, 99.98, 99.59, and 99.13% reduction on various office supplies inoculated with the bacteria.
The test of E. coli given an eight hour treatment yielded a greater than 99.997% reduction on dry surface and a reduction of greater than 99.9999998% on wet surface.
The test of Salmonella typhimurium given an eight hour treatment yielded a greater than 99.99993% reduction on dry surface and a reduction of greater than 99.9999999% on wet surface.
The test of Listeria monocytogenes given an eight hour treatment yielded a greater than 99.9994% reduction on dry surface and a reduction of greater than 99.9999998% on wet surface.
The test of Staphylococcus aureus given an eight hour treatment yielded a greater than 99.999996% reduction on dry surface and a reduction of greater than 99.9999999% on wet surface.
The test of Streptococcus pyogenes given an eight hour treatment yielded a greater than 99.9996% reduction on dry surface and a reduction of greater than 99.999998% on wet surface.
The test of Stachybotrys chartarum (black mold) given a 60 minute treatment yielded a greater than 99.996% reduction on wet surface.
