Abstract
This study evaluates the effects of Advanced ActivePure technology, a photocatalytic air purification system, on the health status of mice housed in a controlled environment. This novel technology is promising due to its ability to eliminate the risk of ozone release into the environment, making it safer compared to other photocatalytic oxidation technologies. Utilizing 300 6-month-old mice over a period of 3 months, this research investigated various health parameters, including haematological, serum biochemical, redox, and inflammatory indicators. The experiment demonstrated no significant alteration in the majority of tested parameters between the control and Advanced ActivePure-exposed groups. Until now, no study has analyzed the health safety of living organisms exposed to Advanced ActivePure in such a detailed manner. Histopathological analyses of nasal and eye tissues showed no adverse changes attributable to Advanced ActivePure exposure. These findings suggest that Advanced ActivePure technology does not negatively impact the overall health of mice, including biochemical markers and respiratory histopathology.
期刊介绍:
The quality of the environment within buildings is a topic of major importance for public health.
Indoor Air provides a location for reporting original research results in the broad area defined by the indoor environment of non-industrial buildings. An international journal with multidisciplinary content, Indoor Air publishes papers reflecting the broad categories of interest in this field: health effects; thermal comfort; monitoring and modelling; source characterization; ventilation and other environmental control techniques.
The research results present the basic information to allow designers, building owners, and operators to provide a healthy and comfortable environment for building occupants, as well as giving medical practitioners information on how to deal with illnesses related to the indoor environment.
