Nature is the largest laboratory on planet Earth and Evolution is the biggest and longest running experiment. We can learn from it to develop innovative solution for a sustainable planet.

Pathogen Capture Technology (PCT)

Human pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, and fungi, bind to proteins and sugar chains on our cell surfaces to establish an infection.

Aquila’s proprietary PCT uses biomolecules that mimic these glycoproteins to bind to the protein spikes on pathogens, capturing and neutralising them. These interactions are similar to Velcro®, a mechanism from which they cannot escape.

This technology is already being applied in the Anti-BioAgent Decontamination (ABD) Device and ProShield Spray and our R&D teams continue to develop new applications and products.

ABD DEVICE

The ABD wipe (Anti Bioagent Decontamination Device) uses pathogen capture technology to remove 99.9% of pathogens, including SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), from human skin. It can be applied safely and comfortably to sensitive areas like around the eyes, nose and mouth.

USA FDA

The product is a US FDA registered Class I medical device that comes in the form of a decontamination wipe.

PROSHIELD MASK SPRAY

ProShield Mask Spray™ converts simple cloth masks into a highly protective face coverings while helping the environment. ProShield Mask Spray contains no alcohol or toxic chemicals. Acting as an invisible shield on the reusable face mask, it prevents pathogens from entering the human airways.
