BioQuest Technologies Assists Several Wrestling Programs in South Florida High Schools Generating Great Success Inhibiting Skin Infections With BioShield 75 Antimicrobial Technology

Posted on: Tuesday, 14 August 2007, 09:20 CDT

BioQuest Technologies, Inc. (Pink Sheets:BQTG), a leading developer of innovative, environmentally safe antimicrobial products, today announced that several wrestling programs in Palm Beach County, Florida have been successful inhibiting skin infections from being transferred athlete to athlete. BioQuest Technologies have serviced a number of sports arenas including wrestling facilities with BioShield 75, the newest technology in antimicrobial surface protection.

BioShield 75 eliminates and inhibits further growth of bacteria, fungi, algae, mold and mildew. In addition, BioShield 75 is water based, odorless and colorless, protects a wide range of surfaces, the only EPA approved product for porous and nonporous surfaces of its kind, and has been accepted by the USDA for use on food contact surfaces. BioShield 75 is approved by the Environmental Protection Agency and works for long periods of time with just one application.

"We have had several skin infections with the wrestlers in our program but since we have been using BioShield 75 on our wrestling mats, we have little to no skin infections," said Doug Rasmussen, Head Wrestling Coach at Jupiter High School in Jupiter, Florida. "BioShield 75 has been a big part of eliminating the majority of skin infections. We intend on using it in our wrestling program to treat and prevent our guys from these disorders."

Also, ring worm and several other skin infections were a problem until BioShield 75 was used in the sports facility at Jupiter Christian School; Jupiter, Florida. The school runs a full range of athletic programs for both boys and girls.

"I have never seen a product work as well as BioShield 75 to offer protection from skin infections in wrestling," said Wrestling Head Coach Jeff Prescott at Jupiter Christian School. "We use it monthly and are looking at the Healthier Environment Program BioQuest offers with its trained certified staff to become part of our sports facilities in the near future. The results are amazing, and it is a safe product to use throughout the athletic facilities. What a great antimicrobial product for so many uses in schools or professional sports!"

"We are finding that for sports, our BioShield 75 antimicrobial surface protection offers fantastic results since it works 24 hours and day, 7 days a week reducing and eliminating bacteria, mold and mildew while all other products stop working when they dry, BioShield 75 has just begun to work when it dries," said Arne Rotne, BioQuest President, "One application from our trained staff or in house staff offers long term protection." Rotne goes on to say, "We feel it is the best antimicrobial surface technology available. Our trained certified staff is available to offer healthier environments for schools and athletic departments. With free antimicrobial surface testing available through our systems, we prove success over time by monitoring and maintaining these environments all year round."
