Research & Validation Reports
Better Biosecurity has developed a proprietary micro-spray system for applying a safe, non-toxic, and organic disinfectant (Paerolyte) within a livestock facility to eliminate viruses and bacteria both in the air and on surfaces. Paerolyte (formerly known as Paerosol) is an EPA-registered medical grade disinfectant which has repeatedly demonstrated up to 6-log reductions (99.9999%) in dozens of pathogens including Influenza A (H5N1), H1N1(Swine Flu), MG, MRSA, PRRSV, E. Coli, C. Diff, Salmonella, Pseudomonas and African Swine Fever Virus.
Better Biosecurity’s micro-spray system builds on technology originally developed by the U. S. Department of Energy to safeguard humans from real-time bioterrorism threats. Paerosol has been validated by government agencies and leading research institutions including the U.S. Department of Energy, U.S. Department of Agriculture, U.S. Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), Auburn University, University of Minnesota, University of Mississippi, and the University of Colorado
Customer Data
Better Biosecurity has implemented solutions at over 100 producers sites and has consistently shown increased rate of weight gain with lowered feed conversion, higher livability, less use of antibiotics, less disease, improved animal health and increased profitability.

Auburn University Egg Holding and Incubation Study with Paerosol Dry Spray Technology
Conclusion: Paerolyte Micro-Spray was proven effective at lowering mortality, increasing birth weight and 7-day growth rates in a hatchery facility in repeated experiments.

Toxicity Study of Paerolyte Micro-Spray on Broiler Chicks Over First 7 Days of Life
Conclusion: The Paerolyte Micro-Spray showed no toxicity or negative impact on the trachea and lung tissues of the birds and no impact on growth rates of the bursa, spleen or bird. In fact, the lung tissue of the treated birds showed a statistical improvement over the lung tissue of the non-treated birds.

Application of a Micro-Aerosolized Disinfectant to clear Mycoplasma Gallisepticum (MG) from Contaminated Facilities
Conclusion: The Paerolyte solution was effective against actively growing cells of the avian pathogen MG and was effective independent of MG location (wall or ceiling) and position (vertical or inverted) in the chamber indicating the ability of the micro-sprayer to saturate the environment inside the enclosed facility with small disinfecting particles resistant to gravitational effects.

Toxicity study of Paerosol in the conditions simulating it application for volumetric disinfection of enclosed environment
Conclusion: The results of the study demonstrated that animal behavior and general conditions (skin and hair) were unchanged. Macroscopic and microscopic examination of spleen, liver, and lung tissues revealed no pathology. No toxic effect of PAEROSOL micro-spray toward the immune system of mice was revealed even up to 20 hours of exposure.

Paerosol efficacy toward airborne and surfaced H5N1 viruses
Conclusion: Airborne Influenza A (H5N1) virus infectivity was reduced below detection level during 4 minutes of exposure in each of 3 conducted experiments.

Summary of the Paerolyte Bioaerosol Disinfection Trials
Conclusion: Paerolyte Micro-Spray was proven effective at reducing the presence of airborne C. Diff (Bacillus subtilis spores used as a surrogate) by a minimum of 99.99%.

Application of the RISNA qPCR module to determine the efficacy of Hypochlorous Acid (HOCl), as supplied by Paerosol, to inactivate the African Swine Fever megavirus
Conclusion: No presence of megaviral ASFV DNA (Evh Surrogate) in liquid treated with the Paerolyte at 500 ppm for up to 1 minute.

Application of the V-qPCR assay to determine the efficacy of Paerolyte to inactivate PRRSV
Conclusion: No presence of PRRSV RNA in liquid treated with Paerolyte at 400ppm for up to 1 minute.

Exploratory Use of Micro-Aerosol Decontamination Technology (PAEROSOL) in Enclosed, Unoccupied Hospital Setting
Conclusion: Paerosol micro-spray was shown capable of eradicating 106/cm2 live microorganisms, including Gram- positive and Gram-negative bacteria, microbial and fungal spores, and viruses on various materials and surfaces, including the surfaces of complex geometry. The array of examined bioagents includes simulates of bio-threat agents (Anthrax simulate), civilian and military hospitals pathogens, antibiotic-resistant microbes, viruses including H1N1 (swine flu), and H5N1 (bird flu) subtypes, as well as food-, and water-borne pathogens.
