Advanced ActivePure Technology: The Opportunity for Risk Assessment Using Murine Model
This study evaluates the effects of Advanced ActivePure technology, a photocatalytic air purification system, on the health status of mice housed in a controlled environment. This novel technology is promising due to its ability to eliminate the risk of ozone release into the environment, making it safer compared to other photocatalytic oxidation technologies. Utilizing 300 6‐month‐old mice over a period of 3 months, this research investigated various health parameters, including haematological, serum biochemical, redox, and inflammatory indicators. The experiment demonstrated no significant alteration in the majority of tested parameters between the control and Advanced ActivePure‐exposed groups. Until now, no study has analyzed the health safety of living organisms exposed to Advanced ActivePure in such a detailed manner. Histopathological analyses of nasal and eye tissues showed no adverse changes attributable to Advanced ActivePure exposure. These findings suggest that Advanced ActivePure technology does not negatively impact the overall health of mice, including biochemical markers and respiratory histopathology.
