Multibio Corporation today announced the launch MB-60, a portable, desk-top electrolyzed functional water generator that produces hypochlorous acid water. At a time of increasing concern for hygiene in settings ranging from restaurants to healthcare facilities, MB-60 produces a safe, low-cost anti-bacterial sanitizer and deodorizer. Shops, restaurants, medical facilities, nursing care homes and day-care nurseries all require high levels of personal hygiene management. Some sanitizers and deodorizers require the use for hazardous chemical materials, which raises safety concerns such as accidental ingestion and handling of hazardous chemicals.Hypochlorous acid water is a safe, low cost alternative with high anti-bacterial and deodorizing properties. It is produced by electrolysis of water and salt, without any need for hazardous chemical materials, and is immediately effective against a wide range of bacteria and viruses. It does not cause the rough skin that results from constant use of other major sanitizers. Hypochlorous acid water is also very effective as a deodorant that counteract the odors of ammonia and methyl mercaptan, both released by foodstuffs as they start to age.
