Project EPEP (Escalator Pathogen Eliminator Project)

**我们每天接触数以百万计的微生物，包括导致传染病传播的有害细菌、病菌、病毒和病原体。**自动扶梯及行人道扶手上含有数以百万计的病菌、细菌及病毒，可引致传染病的传播。**在当前的Covid-19世界中，由于缺乏切实、持久和无毒的解决方案来应对这一日益严重的健康风险，病毒传播的风险仍然高得不必要。****我们创建了p<s:2> rhealth，专注于通过识别使细胞失活的解决方案来防止活性病原体的传播，不使用刺激性或有毒的化学物质，使用紫外线。****我们的创新概念自动扶梯和人行道扶手紫外线消毒装置可以轻松地附着在任何自动扶梯或人行道扶手上，并立即开始消除98%以上导致传染病传播的细菌和病毒。它是自供电和安全。****科学**紫外线辐射存在于阳光中，约占太阳总光输出的10%。紫外线有三种不同的类型；虽然它们很相似，但每种类型的射线具有不同的波长，并且可以在一定程度上穿透物体表面。**UV-C光波长较短，为100- 280nm，具有杀菌作用。它使细菌、病毒和其他病原体的DNA失活，从而破坏它们繁殖和致病的能力。**紫外线- c在地球表面很弱，因为大气层的臭氧层阻挡了它。人体皮肤对UVC辐射的吸收长度极短，几乎没有UVC辐射能到达皮肤中的活细胞；所有的吸收都发生在死细胞层。**我们的创新确保紫外线灯在公共场所使用安全有效。**简单来说，当细菌或其他类型的微生物直接暴露在UV-C光下时，细胞的DNA（其基本组成部分）被破坏，阻止其复制。如果一个细胞不能繁殖，那么这个细胞就不能引起感染。**UV-C甚至可以中和对抗生素产生耐药性的“超级细菌”，并已被证明可以杀死与当前大流行有关的SARS病毒家族

**Every day we come into contact with millions of microbes including harmful bacteria, germs, viruses and pathogens which lead to the spread of infectious diseases.**Escalator and walkway handrails contain millions of germs, bacteria and viruses which lead to the spread of infectious diseases.**In the current Covid-19 world the risks of virus transmission remains needlessly high due to the lack of a practical, persistent and non-toxic solution to address this growing health risk.****We created PürHealth to focus on preventing the spread of active pathogens by identifying solutions that render the cells inactive, WITHOUT the use of harsh or toxic chemicals, using UV light.****Our innovative concept for an Escalator & Walkway Handrail UV Disinfection Unit easily attaches to any escalator or walkway handrail and immediately starts to eliminate over 98% of the bacteria and viruses that lead to the spread of infectious diseases. It is self powered and safe.****The science**UV radiation is present in sunlight, and contributes about 10% of the total light output of the Sun. There are three different types of UV rays; A, B and C. While they are similar, each type of ray has a different wavelength and can penetrate surfaces to a certain extent.**UV-C light has a short wavelength of 100-280 nm and is germicidal. It deactivates the DNA of bacteria, viruses and other pathogens and thus destroys their ability to multiply and cause disease.**UV-C light is weak at the Earth's surface as the ozone layer of the atmosphere blocks it. The absorption length of UVC radiation in human skin is extremely short so that almost no UVC radiation can reach the living cells in the skin; all the absorption occurs in the dead cell layers.**Our innovations ensure that the UV light is safe and effective for use in public places.**In simple terms, when bacteria or another type of microbe is directly exposed to UV-C light, the DNA (its fundamental building block) of the cell is damaged, preventing it from replicating.If a cell cannot reproduce, then the cell cannot cause infection. **UV-C can even neutralize 'superbugs' that have developed a resistance to antibiotics and has been proven to kill the SARS family of viruses of which the current pandemic is related.**
