New CDC and ASHRAE Guidelines for Better IAQ

-

Here are some of the ways that Bio Shield's IAQ Defender powered by chitosan can help buildings meet the New CDC and ASHRAE Guidelines for Better IAQ:

Chitosan is a natural antimicrobial that can help to reduce the growth of bacteria, mold, and mildew. This is important because these organisms can produce harmful toxins that can lead to respiratory problems, allergies, and other health issues.

Chitosan works by binding to the cell walls of these organisms and disrupting their metabolism, which eventually kills them.

Chitosan is a hygroscopic material that can help to absorb moisture and prevent condensation. This is important because condensation can lead to the growth of mold and mildew, as well as other problems such as rust and corrosion. Chitosan can help to absorb moisture in the air and prevent it from condensing on surfaces.

Chitosan is a biocompatible material that is safe for humans and the environment. This means that it can be used in a variety of applications without posing any health risks. Chitosan is also biodegradable, so it breaks down over time and does not contribute to pollution.

Chitosan is a renewable resource that can be produced from chitin, a waste product from the seafood industry. This makes it a sustainable material that can be used without depleting natural resources.

Chitosan is a cost-effective material that can be used in a variety of applications. This makes it a viable option for a wide range of buildings, from homes and offices to hospitals and schools.

In addition to these advantages, chitosan has also been shown to have other benefits for indoor air quality, such as:

Improving air purification by trapping and removing pollutants from the air.

Reducing odors by binding to and breaking down volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Overall, chitosan is a promising material that has the potential to significantly improve indoor air quality. It is a natural, biocompatible, renewable, and cost-effective material that can be used in a variety of applications. 

As more research is conducted on the benefits of chitosan for IAQ, it is likely that its use will become more widespread in the future.

Chitosan, derived from chitin found in the exoskeletons of insects and shellfish, possesses remarkable properties that make it invaluable across various industries. In agriculture, chitosan is gaining popularity due to its ability to enhance plant health, increase crop yield, and provide pest and disease control. Chitosan's impact on pest control is significant. When applied as a solution, it activates a plant's systemic acquired resistance (SAR), triggering the production of the enzyme chitinase. Chitosan weakens the exoskeletons of insects and the cell walls of fungi, making it a valuable tool for combating pests like powdery mildew, botrytis, and Pythium. Moreover, chitosan treatments do not harm beneficial fungi such as trichoderma. Beyond pest control, chitosan offers additional benefits. Pretreating seeds with chitosan improves germination, reduces fungal infection, and enhances seedling survival rates. Furthermore, chitosan promotes the production of secondary metabolite
