Validation of Polygiene? resin performance against SARS-CoV and pathogenic bacteria - Translated by Marianne Wang
Polygiene?树脂抗SARS-CoV和致病细菌性能的验证

Polygiene resin has been specially formulated to provide rapid disinfection of the SARS coronavirus, the validity of which was clearly demonstrated by the results of tests carried out, late 2003, by China’s Military Academy of Medical Science, Institute of Microbiology and Epidemiology. These tests specifically focused on the antiSARS-CoV effectiveness of five different formulations of urea moulding compound at different times of contact. While all of the formulations were found to be relatively active against the virus, the final Polygiene formulation was based on the (designated S2) formulation, which exhibited the fastest and most impressive attack on the SARS coronavirus. Testing on the Polygiene compound showed significant statistical activity at 2, 4, 8, and 24 hours, especially when compared with the control material, a thermoplastic resin.
Polygiene树脂的设计目的是进行SARS冠状病毒快速消毒，这一功能已经在2003年底中国军事医学科学院微生物和流行病学院进行的试验中得到明确的证实。这些试验的目的是对比五种不同尿素模塑料在不同接触时间的抗SARS-CoV效力。试验表明，所有配方对这一病毒均有不同程度的活性作用，但是最后的Polygiene配方是基于（指定的S2）配制的，对SARS冠状病毒的抗击作用最持久最有效。Polygiene 化合物试验在2、4、8和24小时显示了显著的统计活性，尤其是与对照材料——一种热塑性树脂——相比较时，这种活性尤为明显。

Activity shown by the Polygiene compound over 2, 4 and 8 hours demonstrated that Polygiene can completely kill the SARS coronavirus on the surface of a moulded device. Currently no other products have demonstrated this level of suppression when exposed to SARS. Furthermore, it must be considered that the person-to-person contamination, especially through droplet, never contains as high a concentration of virus as that used for the laboratory test ( ~1.000.000 /ml), but is considerably lower at (100 ÷ 1.000/ml).
Polygiene 化合物在2、4和8小时显示的活性表明，Polygiene 可以完全杀死一个塑膜设备表面的SARS冠状病毒。目前没有任何其它产品能够在暴露于SARS时起到同一水平的抑制作用。而且，需要补充说明的是，个人之间（尤其是通过飞沫）的传染之中所包含的病毒浓度绝对不可能像实验室试验中所使用的浓度（~1.000.000 /ml）一样高，而要低得多（100 ÷ 1.000/ml）。

While antiSARS activity was tested by the Military Academy of Medical Science of Beijing, antimicrobial activity was tested by Italy’s University of Milan’s Institute of Microbiology, Faculty of Medicine (using the Film Contact Method). 位于北京的中国军事医学科学院完成了抗SARS活性的试验，意大利米兰大学的微生物研究所药物学系（使用胶片接触方法）完成了抗微生物活性的试验。

In these tests, standard and antimicrobial grades of urea were moulded into plaques, then exposed to seven strains of pathogenic bacteria and one strain of yeast. These include:
在这些试验中，尿素的标准和抗微生物等级被注于噬菌区中，然后暴露于七种致病细菌和一种酵母菌下，包括：
· Escherichia coli大肠杆菌
· Klebsiella pneumoniae肺炎克氏杆菌
· Proteus vulgaris普通变型杆菌
· Salmonella typhi伤寒沙门氏菌
· Staphylococcus aureus金黄色葡萄球菌
· Streptococcus faecalis粪链球菌
· Streptococcus pyogenes化脓性链球菌
· Candida albicans白色念珠菌

All of which can cause a broad range of serious illnesses and disease in humans ranging from abdominal cramps, urinary tract infections, and pneumonia, to toxic shock syndrome, scarlet and typhoid fever, to autoimmune disease and even death.
所有细菌都能够在人类身上导致一系列严重疾病，包括腹部绞痛、尿路感染、肺炎、中毒性休克综合症、猩红热、伤寒、自身免疫性疾病，甚至死亡。

According to the test results from the University of Milan study, “In general, the antimicrobial effect of Polygiene resins was always better than the standard urea-formaldehyde moulding compound. The Polygiene moulding compound shows a better antibacterial effect on all the bacteria species examined and the yeast.” The Polyiene resins were found not just to contain the growth of these microorganisms, but also to actually kill them within 24 hours.
米兰大学研究的试验结果表明，“一般而言，Polygiene树脂的抗微生物效力总是高于标准的尿素-甲醛模塑料。对于所有试验细菌和酵母菌，Polygiene 模塑料的抗菌效力都更为优异。”试验表明，Polyiene树脂不仅会阻止这些微生物的生长，还会在24小时之内将其杀死。

Like the SARS tests, the levels of microorganisms used in the Milan protocols were several orders of magnitude higher than would normally be seen in person-to-person contact, yet the Polygiene technology successfully killed the microbes.
与SARS试验一样，米兰试验中所使用的微生物的水平也要比个人接触中所看到的浓度高出数倍，但是Polygiene仍然能够成功地将这些微生物杀死。
