Your Cell Phone Is Dirtier than You Think
April 27, 2016
One of the filthiest things we come in contact with daily is our cell phone. We frequently use our phones, so they remain warm, and this creates an ideal breeding ground for bacteria. Researchers have found in several studies that 94.5% of cell phones were contaminated with some kind of bacteria, and since they don't get cleaned, the germs and bacteria keep building up. Due to the personal nature of cell phones and the proximity to sensitive parts of our bodies like the face, ears, lips, and hands, they become reservoirs of pathogens that could result in infections. It's been said that bathrooms are even cleaner than cell phones since they often get sanitized.
Cleaning an electronic device is not an easy task, but killing the germs, viruses, and bacteria that may be present on your cell phone seems like an impossible mission. Think about it. The most common way to kill germs and bacteria is by using harsh chemicals. Those chemicals come in a liquid state, and liquids can damage your cell phone and other electronics. What alternative can there be to cleaning our cell phone without using liquids that can damage them? Germinator's solutions won't damage cell phones that are water resisitant. Below is our patent-pending process that can be used for phones, homes, and businesses.
Germinator's Patent-Pending Process
Germinator has developed a patent-pending process that provides a new generation of microbial protection for commercial businesses and residents.
Germinator's patent-pending methodology is the most unique and cost-effective means of providing enhanced antimicrobial protection for businesses and residences. The company first tests surfaces for ATP using a luminometer to detect light that can come from cellular activity. This measurement immediately provides the level of clean on a surface.
The next step is the application of Germinator's Genesis surface treatment. Genesis is a one-step cleaner and broad-spectrum sanitizer and disinfectant treatment that harnesses the power of hypochlorous acid (HOCl). Derived from naturally occurring minerals, Genesis not only eliminates odors at their source but kills a wide range of bacteria, including
Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA,
Salmonella enterica and
Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and viruses including norovirus, rotavirus, and adenovirus on hard, non-porous, environmental surfaces. It meets the Association of Official Agricultural Chemists (AOAC) germicidal spray standards for Hospital Grade Disinfection and is on the EPA's N List of products determined to meet the criteria for use against SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. As a result, this treatment will eliminate bacteria and viruses that may reside in your environment without the use of harsh chemicals or fumes.
Following Genesis, Germinator applies its Shield, a water-based quaternary ammonium compound that imparts a durable bacteriostatic finish. It is EPA-registered as effective against mold, mildew, algae, and odor-causing bacteria. This application creates an invisible barrier that helps combat deterioration and discoloration and promotes freshness for up to three months.
The Genesis and Shield products are applied by using an electrostatic sprayer, which is the most efficient and effective means of delivering the products to the intended application sites. After Germinator's surface treatment and protectant services, the company retests ATP levels to help ensure the surfaces have achieved the intended results.
