Air Purifier F-PXT50A

Substances to be inhibited with Panasonic air purifier

What is nanoe™?

A nanoe™ is a fine (5 to 20 nm) and weakly acidic water particle with a reactive substance and an electric charge.

A nanoe™ is water-wrapped capsule with plentiful OH radicals.
Its effectiveness of bacteria removal#¹ depends on the number of OH radical#², which is generated at the rate of 480 billion per second.

#1 Bacteria: the effect resulted in 25cu.m. enclosed test space for 4 hours, not actual usage space.(*¹)
Virus: the effect resulted in 1cu.m. enclosed test box for 2 hours, not at actual usage space.(*²)

#2 Based on the ESR test methodology, applicable in the air purifier launched after Sep 2011

(*¹) [Airbone Bacteria] Test Laboratory: Kitasato Research Centre of Environmental Sciences - Test Methodology: Exposed to charge water particles for 4 hours in 25 cu.m. test room - Test Results 99% is inhibited - Report No.: 24_0301_1
(*²) [Adhering Virus] Test Laboratory: Kitasato Research Centre of Environmental Sciences - Test Methodology: Exposed to charge water particles for 2 hours in 1 cu.m. by TCID50 (5% tissue culture infectious dose)- Test Results 99.9% is inhibited - Report No.: 24_0084_1

What is an allergen? What is allergy?

An allergen is any substance that triggers an allergic reaction when absorbed into the body. Allergens range widely in type and description, from pollen to dead mites and pet dandruff.

Allergy is an over-reaction of our body against allergen by our immune system that originally acts as protective function for our body, such as, Allergic Rhinitis, Bronchial Asthma and Atrophy Dermatitis.

Allergic Rhinitis
House dusts, mites, pollens attached to mucous membrane cause runny nose, nasal congestion, sneezing, eye irritation and bloodshot.

Bronchial Asthma
It is developed from allergies that are cause by mites, house dusts and pollen, etc.

Atopy Dermatitis
It is a skin reaction mainly with rash and itchiness that is caused by some stimulus.

2-in-1 HEPA Composite & Deodorising Filter

Maintain a clean space by removing 0.3µm particles up to 99.97% (*⁴).

Super alleru-buster
Super alleru-buster can inhibit certain kinds of allergen up to 99% by surrounding and restraining the allergens with the phenolic polymer. (*¹)

Green Tea Catechin
Green Tea Catechin can inhibit certain kind of virus up to 99% by surrounding the viruses with the Catechin. (*²)

Anti-bacteria Enzyme
Anti-bacteria Enzyme prevents the reproduction of bacteria and molds in order to ensure clean environment. (*³)

(*¹) Test Laboratory: Osaka Municipal Technical Research Institue of Japan / Test Methodology: Measure reduction level of tick allergen by Enzyme-linked Immuno Sorbent Assay / Inhibiting Method: Contact with Super alleru-buster / Test Subject: Allergens captured by filter (tick, pollen) / Test Result: 99% or more is inhibited (Report no. 2127)
(*²) Test Laboratory: Kitasato Research Centre of Environment Science / Test Methodology: Inhibit rate of virus by Plaque method / Inhibiting Method: contact with Catechin / Test Subjet: Virus captured by filter / Test Result: 99% or more is inhibited (Report no. 15-0115)
(*³) Test Laboratory: Japan Food Research Laboratory / Testing Methodology: Testing of anti-mold function of the filter, using the Harrow method (Report no. 207060074-002)
(*⁴) Removal performance of filter only. The performance for whole house would be different
