How It WorksHow It Works

BioProtect AM-500 forms an virtually permanent bond with the surface substrate.

A ‘wheat field’ of carbon shafts protects the surface from microbes.

Microbes are drawn to the ‘wheat field’ of shafts by the positively charged nitrogen atom.

The microbe’s cell wall is ruptured by the shafts.

A positive charge from the nitrogen atom delivers a fatal electrical charge to the cell wall of the microbe
