Antimicrobial fabrics may limit contamination of hospital privacy curtains

Milwaukee, Wis. (PRWEB) October 06, 2011

A newly released study by University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine found that 92 percent of hospital privacy curtains are contaminated with potentially harmful microbes within a week of being laundered. Senior executives at InPro Corporation applaud the study, which affirms other research on hospital fabrics.

“For several years now, we’ve been trying to get the message about dirty hospital curtains in front of healthcare professionals,” said Mark Alan, senior vice president of product development and management for InPro. “The Iowa research confirms the earlier research by Dr. Curtis Donskey and his colleagues – cubicle curtains can be vectors for pathogens.”

“We hope the new Iowa study will now alert hospital staff to the serious problems they face with traditional cubicle curtain fabrics,” Alan, said, adding that for the past five years, InPro has been taking the “dirty curtains” message to hospitals around the country, and touting an alternative: its Shield by Panaz™ cubicle curtain fabrics.

Originally developed by Panaz Textiles in the UK, Shield technology uses positively charged silane-based molecules that modify the fabric it protects. Instead of leeching into the surrounding fabric, the Shield technology remains permanently fixed to the fabric. When the microbe comes into contact with the fabric, the Shield technology destroys the cell.

A test of Shield by Panaz fabrics showed that the material eliminated an extremely high percentage of the most-common microbes found in healthcare facilities. Detailed test results are available by contacting InPro Corporation.

In addition to its antimicrobial properties, Shield fabrics also offer excellent stain resistance, and allow for simple clean-up using a damp cloth with mild detergent. All fabrics retain their antimicrobial properties through repeated thermal washings when laundered according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. The fabrics conform to the NFPA701 flame-retardant standard and come in a variety of patterns and colors which can be used for shower curtains, window treatments and bed coverings.

Singapore (PRWEB UK) 15 February 2012

This is yet another good example of how A*STAR’s R&D capabilities, in partnership with companies, can bring economic value to Singapore. These technologies will be showcased at the Singapore Airshow from 14-19 February at Changi Exhibition Centre, Booth D35.

Showcased by A*STAR’s seven science and engineering research institutes, the advanced technologies are categorised into four key areas: airframe; maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO); electronics and communications and aviation logistics.

Among the A*STAR innovations are:

A) Airframe

Creating Deep Bonds – A fast curing technology for aerospace sealants and adhesives.

Existing sealants used to repair fuel leaks, install windshields and windows to seal out moisture in aircraft typically takes a few days to fully cure at normal room temperature. Short wave infrared (IR) radiation penetrates deeply into materials and ensures a more uniform curing through heating. IR radiation is currently used in devices such as heat scanners and sensors. The new and simple curing process, which does not compromise the integrity of the sealants, takes only one to two hours instead of seven days to complete. This means that it uses only 3-5% of the normal time taken by current aerospace industry curing processes, translating into increased productivity and operational efficiency, and could result in significant cost savings.

Waves of Change – Modelling of electromagnetic interactions in an aircraft

The ever-increasing demand for communication, navigation, and entertainment leads to heavy adoption of high-speed electronic devices and wireless networks inside the airplane. While wireless communication removes the weight of connecting cables and reduces maintenance fees, it worsens the electromagnetic environment inside the aircraft. Because of this it has become increasingly important to simulate and analyse electromagnetic interactions inside the airplane’s closed environment for reliable aircraft operational functions. The A*STAR-developed advanced simulation technology accurately models the electromagnetic interactions in a closed environment.

B) Maintenance, Repair, Overhaul (MRO)

Get in Shape Fast – Advanced metal forming technology of high performance materials

Conventional high performance materials such as chromoly steel, nickel-based alloy and titanium alloys are used for aerospace engine components. The fabrication cost of these materials is high as these tough materials are difficult to form into components of various complex shapes. A novel yet flexible forming technology is being developed to bend and form high-performance materials and thin-walled components of light-weight materials without secondary process, saving time and material cost by 14% and 40% respectively.

Repair With A New Shine – Applications of Laser Aided Additive Manufacturing for Repair of Engine Components

Laser Aided Additive Manufacturing (LAAM) technology can be used to accurately repair damaged parts and directly manufacture nickel-base and titanium-base superalloy 3D components. These tough materials are difficult to repair due to cracking, oxidation and the need to maintain grain size and micro structure integrity. Due to the low heat input and high automation level, LAAM technology has shown its significant advantages over traditional repair processes such as Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding and thermal spraying. Traditional repair processes cause distortion and peel-off arising from low bonding strength. LAAM technology yields several productivity improvements. Manpower training takes only two weeks compared to a minimum of half a year before an operator is qualified and experienced for repair work. The deposition rate with localised heating also increases. Current TIG method requires four days to achieve consistent quality for a part compared to 20 minutes. Less material is removed, saving machining time. Current TIG cladding requires about 54% material removal compared to 20% for LAAM.

Making Good Sense – Health monitoring and diagnosis

A contactless health and diagnostics check is used for detection of early corrosion surface cracks (including length, width and depth) of less than 1mm and defect detection in composite parts against disbond, de-lamination impact damage. With the rapid scan rates of 0.06m/min – 1.2m/min, non-visible surface cracks can be detected reliably and accurately, minimising potential downtime and improving operational efficiency. Unlike the current ultrasonic methods, this monitoring and diagnostic system is able to detect cracks under paint and thin non-conductive coatings. It does not require a medium to transmit signals into the materials under test.

C) Electronics and Communications

Solutions for flight circuit boards and robust memory system

Hot Stuff – Integrated circuits for operation up to 300˚C

Many industries such as oil exploration, aerospace and automotive require electronic circuitry that operates at high temperatures.To address these upcoming needs, A*STAR’s Institute of Microelectronics (IME) Rugged Electronics Programme develops sensor interface electronics that can reliably measure various physical parameters at soaring temperatures of up to 300°C and at environmental pressure of up to 30Kpsi. IME researchers are exploiting the low leakage current feature of Silicon On Insulator-CMOS process to develop circuit devices aimed to work at temperature of 300°C. IME’s new approach will address the limitations of conventional Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFETs) to enable high resolution sensor interface circuits that can deliver critical data in harsh environments.    

No Fleeting Moments – Non-volatile memories for high performance, radiation hardened aerospace applications

Leading the way is the next-generation technology that uses non-volatile memories for on-board flight applications and sensor networks of structural health monitoring systems. Non-volatile memories aim to provide error-correction codes specially designed for memories exposed to high temperatures and high radiation emissions.This high-performance electronics applied to aircraft components allow condition-based repair and maintenance, instead of routine-based repair. Using such integrated damage monitoring systems can help to decrease the cost of repair and maintenance by up to 20%. To fully realise this advantage, memories needed for such application should have a large capacity, the ability to operate in high temperatures, low power consumption, and be resistant to radiation. Current memory devices based on conventional flash and Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) technologies tend to perform poorly. The non-volatile memories—Spin Transfer Torque Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory and Phase-Change Random Access Memory technologies are two core competencies that A*STAR’s Data Storage Institute has developed. More than 30 patents have been filed for this area.

Connect on the Fly – Next Generation Cabin Communication Platform

In-flight entertainment and communication services are fast gaining importance for airline operators in their bid to attract customers by providing best possible services. However the size, weight, and power constraints of aircraft systems, coupled with rapid advancement in the multitude of communication and entertainment technologies mean that traditional methods of dedicated systems for each supported technology are no longer efficient. A customisable Software Defined Radio (SDR) enables the use of a common platform to be utilised across different aerospace communication systems, such as Global Systems for Mobile, Code Division Multiple Access, and Wireless Local Area Network present in the industry. As the number of users for different access technologies changes, it can intelligently reconfigure the resource distribution among different base access point functions, ensuring maximum number of users.

D) Aviation Logistics

Find it, Move it, Use it – Automated Control and Self-Recovery System of Airfreight Terminal Operations

To build a world-class fully automated airfreight terminal, A*STAR SIMTech successfully completed an automated control and self-recovery system that executes and controls the transfer of containers across multiple material handling systems. The airfreight terminal contains over 80 different material handling systems which span over eight levels and was designed to handle 800,000 tons per annum. A solution that allowed for automated control and self-recovery system was developed. This system can execute and control the transfer of containers across multiple material handling systems, an on-line origin-to-destination route configuration, operating vehicles in four different modes (Auto, Semi-Auto, Manual and Maintenance), handling of containers of different containers, and transfer optimisation of equipment capable of handling two to six containers. Over more than 10 years of operations, this automated control system has been proven and its capabilities enhanced. The project clinched the 2003 Institution of Engineers Singapore (IES) Prestigious Engineering Award.

Details of all 15 technologies are appended in the Annex (see link).

“Amidst the global economic uncertainty, the aerospace industry also faces global challenges with fluctuating fuel costs and the need to optimise operational efficiencies. Science and technology can be tapped to push technological breakthroughs and tackle issues of cost efficiencies, productivity and safety for the industry. Collaborative R&D is a cost effective platform to achieve this,” said Dr Raj Thampuran, Executive Director of the Science and Engineering Research Council of *STAR.

Say hello to a whole new range of LED Lenser torches, one of the most known and regarded brands in the field of LED lighting. If there’s an LED product you want, chances are, these are the people you want to be buying from.

LED is an acronym for light emitting diode, this type of light source has many benefits over a standard halogen bulb. The main most notable advantage is the durability; not only are they shock resistant, but they also last up to 1,000 times longer than a conventional light bulb. Green enthusiasts will be happy in the knowledge that they’ll be helping to save the planet by buying an LED torch as LED’s save energy and reduce CO2 emissions. So whilst all the celebrities and eco-mentalists are out buying electric cars, sit back in the knowledge that an LED torch is also lending a helping hand to combat this overheated planet.

Scott Morris, Marketing Manager at Toolbox gave a couple of words on the new torches; “I have a few LED Lenser torches at my disposal, one attached to my keyring which I can’t begin to describe how useful it is and another main torch rated 220 lumens. Having used it many times, I couldn’t possibly be without one now due to how efficient it is at doing everything I require it to do. The ability to focus in and out as well as change the light intensity is indescribably helpful and the clarity of the light can only be likened to crystals. Taking outdoor photographs in the dark used to be almost impossible without generators and HDI lighting; but the magnitude of LED Lenser torches makes it possible without shelling out for heavier equipment.”

Scott has virtually covered all aspects of these torches; the applications for a torch of this calibre are endless. There are policemen and women who swear by these torches for night-time use and some have even made use of the temporary ‘boost’ function to dazzle and disorientate people who aren’t cooperating with them. For quality like this, price is an after-thought when all the functions of a ‘simple torch’ are considered!
