Abstract:
A system and method for using nanoparticles for antimicrobial activity. The coding may include a polymeric film and a plurality of discreet first particles. The discreet particles may include silver metal, silver oxide or a combination of both. The discreet particles may be in contact with the polymeric film.
Abstract:
A system and method for using nanoparticles for antimicrobial activity. An antimicrobial coating can be provided, which can include a plurality of discrete first particles that can have an average diameter of less than approximately 400 nanometers and, in a preferred embodiment, 10 nanometers or less. The plurality of discrete first particles can include pure silver metal. In an embodiment, the plurality of discrete first particles can also include a physiologically inert stabilizer. The antimicrobial coating can also include a polymeric film, in which the plurality of discrete first particles can be directly embedded therein.
Abstract:
A service tool accesses a building system to wirelessly configure, test, troubleshoot and control a building fire protection system. Using wireless communication with a fire alarm control panel, the service tool provides for remote viewing of a control panel. The service tool may be used for remote control for functionality of a fire alarm control panel or other devices of a building fire protection system. The service tool may display information such as status indicators that correspond to a display on a remote control panel. The service tool may be used to confirm and/or monitor an installation, test functionality, diagnose and/or troubleshoot problems.
