Face Masks Really Do Matter. The Scientific Evidence Is Growing.
New research suggests that face coverings help reduce the transmission of droplets, though some masks are more protective than others
Face masks are emerging as one of the most powerful weapons to fight the novel coronavirus, with growing evidence that facial coverings help prevent transmission—even if an infected wearer is in close contact with others.
Robert Redfield, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said he believes the pandemic could be brought under control over the next four to eight weeks if “we could get everybody to wear a mask right now.” His comments, made Tuesday with the Journal of the American Medical Association,...
PROLEXUS has launched its new revolutionary anti-virus protective mask ProXmask90V that could provide optimal protection against Covid-19.
Designed and engineered with its ProX technology, the ProXmask90V is marketed as being able to inactivate 99.9% of SARS-CoV-2 that causes Covid-19, other coronaviruses as well as influenza viruses and bacteria.
The anti-virus technology in the mask fabric, developed with an European textile chemical manufacturer, features the presence of active positive charges on the fabric – as binding sites for viruses.
Upon contact with the fabric, the virus cells that are negatively charged are neutralised, leading to rapid destruction of its glycoprotein layers.
During the testing stage, the treated fabric was contaminated with a known concentration of SARS-CoV-2. The measurement that followed showed a reduction of over 99.9% of SARS-CoV-2 on the fabric relative to the inoculum control.
The mask also comes with a water repellency feature and is fitted with an innovative self-developed microfiltration structure, which captures and deactivates viruses and bacteria down to a microscopic scale of 1,000 times smaller than a millimetre.
ProXmask90V is engineered to deliver a five-layer protection through the application of advanced textile technology. It is manufactured by Honsin Apparel Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Prolexus, with its manufacturing licence approved by the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA).
“ProXmask90V is washable and reusable up to 60 times,” said Prolexus innovation and development manager Dr Harintharavimal Balakrishnan.
