Boustead Client Know Labs Confirms Particle Bulb Kills SARS-CoV-2

Boustead Securities, LLC (“Boustead”) client Know Labs, Inc. (OTCQB: KNWN), an emerging leader in non-invasive medical diagnostics, through its proprietary electromagnetic energy technology platforms, has shared with the public preliminary study results from Texas Biomedical Research Institute (Texas Biomed) indicating the Particle bulb’s ability to inactivate SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. In addition, the Particle bulb can kill a number of common household bacteria and germs, for example E. Coli, Salmonella, and Staphylococcus.

Rather than using dangerous UV-C light to kill germs quickly, Particle’s method is “low and slow.” Particle bulb disinfects germs using Gentle UV, a blend of UV-A light, for longer periods, allowing it to be used safely near people in homes, businesses, and institutions.

Results

Multiple tests performed by Texas Biomed demonstrated a 95% reduction in the SARS-CoV-2 virus after 5 hours of exposure to the Particle bulb; a 99% reduction in 6 hours; and a 99.9% reduction in 8 hours.

“We were very pleased to work with Texas Biomed because of their reputation as a global leader in eradicating infectious diseases and we’re really excited by these results,” said Know Labs CEO, Phil Bosua. Texas Biomed is a world-renowned, independent, non-profit biomedical research institute specializing in infectious diseases. Home to a CDC-regulated biosafety level-4 laboratory, Texas Biomed develops vaccines and therapies to successfully treat some of the world’s deadliest diseases, including COVID-19. Viraj Kulkarni, Ph.D., Staff Scientist at the Disease Intervention & Prevention Division at Texas Biomed, stated, "Study results indicated Particle bulb is effective at inactivating the virus that causes COVID-19. Technologies, like Particle, have great potential in assisting the world.” Boustead served as exclusive placement agent and advisor for the Company’s recently completed $14.2m financing and serves as exclusive advisor for Know Labs planned uplisting.

Through internal preliminary testing, Particle, Inc. has confirmed the bulb’s efficacy in disinfecting common germs such as E. coli and Staphylococcus. A world renowned, CDC-regulated biosafety level-4 laboratory is currently testing the Particle bulb’s ability to deactivate SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Phil Bosua, Know Labs CEO and the inventor behind the first smart light bulb stated, “I had previously developed a light bulb that kills viruses and bacteria. When the coronavirus pandemic swept the world, we decided the time was right to truly revolutionize lighting as we know it. All of the internal testing we have conducted has been extremely positive and we expect results from an independent laboratory in the coming weeks. We brought together a talented team that is excited to introduce the Particle bulb to the market. It is the first of several products from Particle that I believe will make the space you inhabit safer for you and your family.”
