Atlanta, GA (January 24, 2020) – The Wuhan coronavirus, a new and potentially fatal infection, has arrived in the US. The first confirmed US case of the coronavirus in Washington state has CDC officials and hospitals across the US preparing for the possibility of the virus spreading here. Fortunately, a new EPA-registered multi-surface cleaner not only eradicates coronaviruses and other dangerous viruses but also kills bacteria for 24 hours with a formulation classified as nontoxic by the EPA. The product is called Byotrol24™ (www.Byotrol24.com) and is available at Target.com. Byotrol24 sells for $3.99 in a liquid spray bottle and is available in two long-lasting scents: Lavender Morning™ and Hawaiian Sunrise Citrus™.

Byotrol24 is scientifically proven to eliminate coronaviruses, noroviruses, flu and cold viruses, E. coli, salmonella, staph, strep, listeria, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other germs. Of particular note, not all surface cleaners sold in stores today are capable of eliminating the hard-to-kill norovirus, sometimes referred to as the winter vomiting bug. Spreading person to person easily, norovirus is reported by the CDC to result in up to 71,000 hospitalizations each year.

Although not much is known about the novel Wuhan coronavirus, it appears capable of spreading human to human and is in the same family as the virus that causes SARS, which killed more than 700 people in 2002-03. With no vaccine available, effective hygiene and cleaning practices are a front line of defense.

Byotrol24 is specially formulated as a non-harsh disinfectant and long-lasting sanitizer that emits no chemical fumes and requires no gloves for use. Byotrol24 eliminates over 99.9% of germs on surfaces and is particularly useful on frequently touched spots such as handles, sinks, toilets and kids’ toys.

In addition, Byotrol24 can eliminate harmful microbes in work spaces, including desks, phones, conference tables and elevator buttons. In a busy office, germs are transferred easily from surface to surface. In fact, germs on one contaminated door handle can spread to 40-60% of other surfaces in the office within only a few hours, according to a study by the University of Arizona.

“Byotrol24 is a scientific breakthrough in germ control. It has been thoroughly tested and proven to kill a wide range of germs, including coronaviruses, and to control germs for a long period of time,” said Dr. Trevor Francis, chief technology officer for Byotrol. “This EPA-registered, nontoxic disinfecting formula with 24-hour sanitizing power can help stop the spread of germs and potentially save lives.”

Atlanta, GA (April 30, 2019) – With a standard disinfectant cleaner, germs can re-contaminate treated surfaces within just minutes. A swipe of a dirty hand or a wayward sneeze is all it takes to re-introduce germs to a clean surface. Germs can then survive on surfaces for hours or even days. Now, an advanced new cleaner — Byotrol24™ —not only kills over 99.9% of germs but also keeps eliminating new bacteria on surfaces all day long, even after multiple touches.

Byotrol24 (www.byotrol24.com) is available at select Target stores and online at Target.com and Amazon.com. Two new Byotrol24 scents — Lavender Morning™ 24-hour fragrance and Hawaiian Sunrise Citrus™ 24-hour fragrance — were introduced this week at Target. These fragrances are designed to last for 24 hours to provide a sensory cue that Byotrol24 is working around the clock to eliminate over 99.9% of bacteria.

Byotrol24 eliminates Flu and Cold viruses, E. coli, Salmonella, Staph, Strep, Listeria, Pseudomonas Aeruginosa and other germs. Of particular note is this product’s ability to kill Norovirus, a deadly virus especially difficult to kill. Norovirus contributes to 71,000 hospitalizations each year, according to the CDC. In addition, what makes Byotrol24 revolutionary and unique is its patented cleaning formula that is scientifically proven by independent testing to keep surfaces sanitized for 24 hours with just one treatment.

Whereas many standard cleaners today can be harsh on surfaces as well as slightly or moderately toxic to people and pets, Byotrol24 is a non-harsh disinfectant and surface sanitizer that emits no chemical fumes and even requires no gloves to use. Byotrol24 is ideal for use on household surfaces, especially those that are frequently touched – door handles, refrigerator handles, sinks and sink handles, kids’ toys, toilets and toilet handles, for example.

In addition, Byotrol24 is ideal for eliminating harmful microbes in work spaces, such as desks, phones, conference tables, elevator buttons and other surfaces. Researchers at the University of Arizona found that just one contaminated door handle can spread germs to 40-60% other “high-touch” surfaces in the office within only 2 to 4 hours.

“We are excited to introduce our Lavender Morning and Hawaiian Sunrise Citrus scented Byotrol24 cleaners at Target,” said Alex Espalin, chief marketing officer for Byotrol. “This innovative cleaning product is a scientific breakthrough in germ control, the only household cleaner that controls bacteria for 24 hours. Byotrol24 will make a positive difference in people’s lives to help stop the spread of germs.”

The Truth About Germs

Many standard cleaning products are effective at removing most germs (99.9 percent) on surfaces – at least initially. What many consumers do not realize is that unlike dirt and grime, which take a while to accumulate again, germs begin growing back almost instantly. Some bacteria, such as certain types of Escherichia coli (E.coli) that cause intestinal infection, can reproduce every 20 minutes. At that rate of growth, a single bacterium can grow into trillions of bacteria in one day. Therefore, while surfaces treated with standard cleaning products may look and smell clean, they are actually infested with harmful germs within minutes of treatment.

Smart Science for an Evolving World

Because the battle to keep homes clean and germ-free is a constant one, scientists at Byotrol spent the past five years developing a breakthrough product for the home that continues killing germs for 24 hours. BYOTROL24™ has demonstrated 24-hour protection against germs in rigorous testing at independent laboratories. In addition, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has thoroughly evaluated BYOTROL24™ and confirmed its cleaning and disinfecting efficacy on hard surfaces throughout the home.

To ensure BYOTROL24™ disinfectant cleaner would be safe to use around families and pets, Byotrol’s scientists developed a formula that is gentle on surfaces, produces no harmful fumes and leaves no harsh chemical residue. In fact, the EPA also ranked BYOTROL24 as one of the least toxic household disinfectant cleaners – placing BYOTROL24 into the same low-toxicity category as household disinfectant cleaners labeled as “natural.”

“We are very pleased to introduce a revolutionary cleaning innovation that will protect people from germs, stop the spread of infection, and help save lives,” says Alex Espalin, chief marketing officer for Byotrol Incorporated. “It has been an extraordinary journey for the Byotrol team – from product development in the lab to many rounds of testing and product validation, to now bringing BYOTROL24™ into homes and the public places where we need long-lasting protection from germs the most.”
