IVFonline Offers Coda Products to IVF Clinics Who Are Smoke Victims in California

Posted on: Friday, 26 October 2007, 18:00 CDT

GUILFORD, Conn., Oct. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- IVFonline announced on Tuesday October 23rd that it will provide Coda Air Purification systems to those clinics in need right now.

An IVF lab has to be run under the cleanest conditions. The smoke in the air can be very damaging to an embryo and many specimens may be lost. The Coda Purification systems work to clean the lab of the potentially harmful VOC's in the air.

In North Miami, FL, a few years ago a portion of Interstate 95 was closed as brushfires whipped through thousands of acres and forced about 1,000 people to evacuate their homes. The wind blown fire and smoke engulfed neighborhoods and threatened the local hospital.

The IVF Team of the hospital was put on 'red' alert. The staff raced to the hospital, preparing to evacuate the embryos and the contents of the incubators. The hospital was engulfed in faint smog of smoke and a smell of the brushfire. They prepared and braced for the worst.

As the IVF Team entered the IVF laboratory, they were surprised and relieved to find that the air in the IVF laboratory was clean and clear and that their specimens were safe and protected. They did not have to move the embryos. Inside this lab were two Coda Towers(R) and the incubators were equipped with Coda(R) Units. The Team was able to relax, knowing that their embryos were safe and out of harms way.

Centralized systems have trouble filtering large amounts of environmental fumes such as smoke. Most systems do not contain sufficient HEPA filtration or carbon. The smoke may eventually overcome the system and enter the clinic, introducing contaminants into the lab and other rooms. The Coda system has the 'air power' to fully circulate the air in your lab in minutes, and the 'filter power' and enough HEPA filter to work for hours, clearing the air.
