Sonoma Pharmaceuticals and MicroSafe Group Announce New EPA Claims and Green Seal Certification for Nanocyn(R) Hospital-Grade Disinfectant

BOULDER, CO / ACCESSWIRE / March 2, 2023 / Sonoma Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq:SNOA), a global healthcare leader developing and producing patented Microcyn® technology-based stabilized hypochlorous acid (HOCl) products for a wide range of applications, including wound, eye, oral and nasal care, dermatological conditions and disinfectant use, and its partner, the MicroSafe Group DMCC, are excited to announce that Nanocyn® hospital-grade disinfectant has received additional claims from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for effective use against Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA), Salmonella, Norovirus, Poliovirus, and as a fungicide. Moreover, Nanocyn® has also received the esteemed Green Seal® Certification after surpassing a series of rigrous standards that measure environmental health, sustainability and product performance.

The additional claims add Nanocyn® to the EPA's List G, Antimicrobial Products Registered with the EPA for Claims Against Norovirus (Feline calicivirus), and List H, Registered Antimicrobial Products with Label Claims Against MRSA and/or Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis/faecium (VRE). MRSA is a type of bacteria that is resistant to several antibiotics and can cause pneumonia and other infections. Athletes, daycare and school students, military personnel in barracks, and those who receive inpatient medical care or have surgery or medical devices inserted in their body are at higher risk of MRSA infection.

Nanocyn® hospital-grade disinfectant was approved by the EPA for use as a disinfectant on hard non-porous surfaces in April 2022 and was subsequently listed on the EPA's List N, Disinfectants for Coronavirus (COVID-19), and List Q, Disinfectants for Emerging Viral Pathogens, including Ebola virus, Mpox virus, and SARS-CoV-2 and variants, for use at sites that include but are not limited to hospitals and other medical areas, cruise ships, gyms, food preparation areas and veterinary and animal housing environments.

EPA-registered antimicrobial products may not make efficacy claims against any pathogens unless the EPA has reviewed the data that supports the claim and subsequently approved the claim for the label. Products included on these lists also comply with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's requirements for occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens, as well as proper management of waste disposal, which is regulated under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.

The Green Seal is a prestigous global ecolabel that recognizes products meeting rigorous, science-based health and environmental criteria. By earning the respected Green Seal Certification, Nanocyn becomes one of the few HOCl-based products to acheive this distinction. Nanocyn's outstanding performance and environmental standards have been validated by Green Seal's top-rated scientists and experts, making it a trusted disinfectant that prioritizes environmental leadership and sustaniablity.

Nanocyn hospital grade disinfectant is expected to be commercialized by the summer of this year.

"The MicroSafe Group is excited to have received the new claims from the EPA confirming its effectiveness against a wide range of harmful bacteria, viruses, and fungi," said Safa Qadumi, CEO of the MicroSafe Group. "The additional EPA approved claims coupled with the Green Seal Certification makes Nanocyn a reliable and eco-friendly option for those who prioritize both product performance and environmental responsibility" Mrs. Safa continued.

"We are excited to obtain the extended listings with the EPA and the Green Seal Certification for Nanocyn. Our Microcyn Technology continues to make advancements as a broad-use technology for killing harmful bacteria, viruses and fungi while meeting stringent criteria for safety," said Amy Trombly, CEO of Sonoma Pharmaceuticals.
