Cold plasma technology is in fact capable of destroying viruses and other pathogens such as bacteria, spores, molds, sanitizing the surrounding environment. At the base there is the phenomenon of ionization. The Jonix sanitisers are nursing homes, laboratories, factories and companies, as well as e-commerce platforms.
Non thermal plasma (NTP) is the name of the mechanism that underlies the sanitation process. A technology validated by the scientific community that manages to destroy 99.9% of pathogens including airborne viruses, as shown by a study published in 2019 by researchers from the University of Michigan. NTP is a physical phenomenon generated at room temperature, it uses air as a gaseous mixture transforming it into an ionized gas consisting of various electrically charged particles both + and -: electrons, ions, atoms and molecules which collide producing oxidizing species, the reactivity of the particles then causes oxidation phenomena capable of disaggregating volatile organic compounds, bacteria, microorganisms, odors.
