In the following year, they also demonstrated its effectiveness against the original SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV), which caused the outbreak from 2002 to 2003 and genetically similar to the SARS-CoV-2.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This overall achievement was accomplished in collaboration with Professor Jiro Yasuda of the National Research Center for the Control and Prevention of Infectious Diseases\/Institute of Tropical Medicine, Nagasaki University, Japanese Society for Virology Board member Professor Asuka Nanbo, and Professor Hironori Yoshiyama of the Department of Microbiology, and Shimane University Faculty of Medicine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And with the recent outbreak of COVID-19 caused by a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), it showed an urgent need for immediate countermeasures to be taken across a wide range of fields, thus Sharp\u2019s range of Plasmacluster technology products.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/SharpPhilippines\/posts\/3406058866100688?__cft__[0]=AZWf35tOcczyhZvwabI8VoFYRHoBOLcFv5b9VpYGXHa3vwBB75MmcrQegGQp25mhXs1TD_fz9yCLA8ZOC-q9_eW2iVdLGLZoJ7HLfnzI8yW1RPuRhhLBIuPVfbK3iALOgaIoR2YvXj4j47Xdbf02wxcnzHBO1jmZ-tsDIiw3c1nkRg&#038;__tn__=%2CP-R<\/p>\n<h3>Plasmacluster Technology on Sharp Products<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sharp\u2019s Plasmacluster technology works in three stages. It generates and emits the same positive and negative ions found in nature and after purifying the air, the ions turn to water and return to the air.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The said technology brings a bunch of benefits proven and tested from various researches, such as it eliminates airborne mold and suppresses the activity of airborne viruses, bacteria, and allergens.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Reducing Growth of Mold demo using Sharp Plasmacluster\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FHTN2uIUTB4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Not only does it break down adhering odors in the air but Plasmacluster ions also reduce static electricity, preventing pollen and airborne dust from clinging to curtains, clothing, and other surfaces at home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lastly, it has a beautifying benefit from water molecules produced by PCI that adheres to the surface of the skin and forms a coating to retain the moisture of the skin.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Available in the market today, Sharp\u2019s innovative Plasmacluster technology is a game-changer in bringing safety and comfort in one\u2019s home during this time of the pandemic. The technology is not only contained in Sharp\u2019s air purifier appliances but also in air conditioner units, refrigerators, and ion generators, with each having specific purposes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-51123\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/12\/sharp-2020-primer_4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/12\/sharp-2020-primer_4.jpg 800w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/12\/sharp-2020-primer_4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/12\/sharp-2020-primer_4-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"><i>Premium Inverters equipped with AIoT technology<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Also read:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/2019\/12\/11\/sharp-ph-launches-better-solutions-for-a-better-life-for-2020\/\" target=\"_blank\">Sharp PH Launches Better Solutions for A Better Life for 2020<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For more information about Sharp\u2019s Plasmacluster technology and home appliances, you may visit their website at <\/span><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/ph.sharp\/plasmacluster-technology\" target=\"_blank\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">ph.sharp\/plasmacluster-technology<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Source: <\/span><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/global.sharp\/corporate\/news\/200907-a.html?fbclid=IwAR16ZSsG7XrMU5h41lwHg14p70D0bKFgm3VP0lyRwphcUCMWBVWke1NFH-M\" target=\"_blank\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sharp Global\u2019s official press release<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, <\/span><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/ph.sharp\/plasmacluster-technology\" target=\"_blank\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sharp Philippines<\/span><\/i><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a world-first, Sharp Corporation has developed revolutionary Plasmacluster technology, which is proven effective against suspending viruses and microbes that contaminate the air such as novel coronavirus (COVID-19).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":57024,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35,94],"tags":[13834,13835,13833,13836,13830,7050,528,13837,13838],"class_list":["post-57014","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-announcements","category-press-release","tag-air-purifier","tag-plasmacluster-ions","tag-plasmacluster-technology","tag-plasmacluster-technology-products","tag-sharp-air-purifier","tag-sharp-corporation","tag-sharp-philippines","tag-sharp-plasmacluster-technology","tag-sharp-plasmacluster-technology-products"],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/09\/sharp-plasmacluster.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57014","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=57014"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57014\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":57689,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57014\/revisions\/57689"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/57024"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=57014"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=57014"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=57014"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
