lin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), Staphylococcus aureus, ATCC 6538P and Klebsiella pneumonia and ATCC 4352. In addition, the Nano Silver Curtains are Flame proof (Type C); Anti-static; Dust proof; Dis- posable; Recyclable; Mildew proof and are available in three different styles and 13 different colors.

Nano Mask believes that the introduction of this advanced anti-bacterial technology may reduce the risk to patients, staff and visitors of hospital-acquired infections by eliminating certain pathogens, molds and fungi that come into contact with the curtain. http://www.nanoprotectionsolutions.com
