A Japanese air conditioner company has claimed to have successfully devised a new technology to decompose and detoxify <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avian_influenza">bird influenza</a> viruses. Japan's Daikin Industries Ltd has said it and Vietnam's National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology have successfully tested the company's streamer discharge technology which can decompose the bird flu virus. Daikin's streamer discharger, used for its air purifier, took three hours to completely detoxify H5N1 avian flu viruses that were collected from human patients. The test represented the world's first complete detoxification of bird flu viruses collected from humans, Daikin later said. The streamer discharger is designed to generate electrons that collide and unite with oxygen or nitrogen to oxidise and decompose the protein of viruses.
