Revolutionizing Home Cleaning: The Science of Annie's Pure & Simple VS. MS2 Bacteriophage
In the quest for a cleaner, safer home, the latest findings from the Toxics Use Reduction Institute (TURI) shed new light on the power of Annie's Pure & Simple All Purpose Cleaners. This study wasn't just any ordinary test; it focused on the cleaner's ability to combat MS2 Bacteriophage, a resilient, non-enveloped virus used as a surrogate for COVID-19, showcasing the product's unexpected disinfection properties.
Why MS2 Bacteriophage Matters: The choice of MS2 Bacteriophage for testing is pivotal. This tough virus, akin to Norovirus in its resilience, provides a rigorous benchmark for disinfection. Its selection by the EPA as a surrogate underscores the significance of the test, aiming to explore effective cleaning solutions in the face of scarce traditional disinfectants.
The Testing Insight: Alicia McCarthy from TURI emphasizes the importance of cleaning as the first step before disinfecting. The study reveals that Annie's Pure and Simple, even when not designed as a disinfectant, demonstrates remarkable efficacy in reducing virus presence on surfaces, achieving a 94.0945% reduction in MS2 Bacteriophage on stainless steel within just a minute, without physical wiping. This highlights a crucial point: the act of cleaning itself, especially with effective products, plays a significant role in inactivating and removing harmful viruses.
What This Means for Your Home: This groundbreaking study positions Annie's Pure and Simple not just as a cleaner but as an integral part of a holistic approach to home hygiene. It suggests that effective cleaning can significantly diminish the viral load, paving the way for a healthier living environment, particularly in times when traditional disinfectants are hard to come by.
A Greener, Safer Cleaning Solution: By incorporating Annie's Pure and Simple into your cleaning routine, you're not only opting for an eco-friendly solution but also embracing a product backed by science for its disinfection capabilities. It's a testament to the fact that choosing safer, less harsh chemicals doesn't mean compromising on protection against viruses.
