SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 1, 2022  /PRNewswire/ -- As concern about the spread of Monkeypox heightens, the results of a new study being released today by biosafety company R-Zero find its UV-C tech is 99.996% effective in neutralizing the virus on surfaces.

Key Points: 
  • The study, conducted by a third-party laboratory, measured the impact of R-Zero's Arc device (which delivers hospital-grade disinfection using UV-C) against a Monkeypox virus surrogate, commonly studied in laboratories as a model poxvirus and almost identical to Monkeypox.
  • "While harder to transmit from most surfaces, the Monkeypox virus can still pose a threat, lingering on surfaces for hours to days and can survive in linens, clothing and on environmental surfaces, particularly in dark, cool, and low humidity environments.
  • This study makes it clear that certain UV-C tech can neutralize Monkeypox on most surfaces," said Dr. Richard Wade, Chief Scientist for R-Zero, and a leading expert in toxicology and microbiological contamination.
