According to a study published at the International Conference on Prevention and Infection Control held by the World Health Organization in Switzerland [1], the use of nano zinc surface reduces the rate of healthcare-acquired infection(HAI) in hospital and effectively inhibit 97% of bacteria, fungal pathogens and other viruses.

The principle of anti-bacterial of nano zinc ion →Zn2++OH-+OH reaction produces hydroxyl radical,-OH) destroy proteins and lipids in cells.

In addition, the reaction of 2Zn++2RSU→2Zn++RSSR+2H+ of nano zinc ion will deplete sulfhdryl group, SH-, and reduce the content of cysteine or glutathione.

Hydrogen peroxide(H2O2) is produced in the event of 2Zn++2h++O2→2Zn2++H2O2, hydroxyl radical is generated once again and destroy cell components.
