Bacteria can easily thrive in a hospital environment. With the constant influx of sick people bring in and sharing untold amounts of harmful bacteria, it’s not always possible to protect patients, guests or hospital staff from coming into contact with invisible microbes that cause infection or disease.
Tests completed by ALS in Arunamari Hospital demonstrate how an air purifier, complete with AMF filter and Anti-Bacterial Booster Bottle reduces the amount of harmful bacteria in a standard patient room. The tests were conducted over period of 60 days, with a before and after sample taken from each room using a one settle plate sample.
The results show a significant decrease in not only bacteria but yeast and mould as well. One test was taken over the course of 60 days, where the bacterial count dropped from 27 to 8, but after 11 days, the bacterial count had already dropped to 5. In patient room 305 the level of bacteria dropped from 42 to 5, and the yeast and mould count dropped from 5 to 1.

In this comparison of before and after in each of the hospital rooms, you can clearly see the amount of dust, dirt, bacteria, yeast and mould the AMF filter has stopped from circulating back into the room. The average lifespan of an AMF filter is 6 months; this comparison is only 60 days apart.
Both of the hospital rooms remained in use by patients throughout the duration of the tests, constantly bringing in new bacteria. Through the use of the air purifier with AMF filter and anti-bacterial booster bottle, you can see clearly in the table below how effective this method is in reducing the risk of infection or cross-contamination in a hospital environment.
