The H5n1 Virus is Flying Everywhere Without Restraint

To be victorious in stopping the coming pandemic every weapon is absolutely necessary and important. Here is one more for your arsenal to fight with.

If it were easy everyone would have already been successful, however with the constant nasty habit of mutating, these influenza viruses are becoming more and more dangerous. Just having gone through the annual influenza season it is fresh on our minds how ineffective the vaccine was in preventing the new mutated strands. Just when the virologists think they have the little demon figured out, a virus morphs into bits of gnome to remain a cunning dangerous machine.

Daniel Janies, a professor of zoology at Ohio State University’s Department of Biomedical Informatics, for years now has been tracking the H5N1 avian-flu mutations. But once Professor Janies and his staff loaded their data on google earth to map changes in RNA by location, something unexpected was observed. Not only was the virus moving westward, it was mutating in such a way that allowed it to infect mammals making it now more dangerous to the human population.

Currently, Professor Janies is tracking 1000 avian-flu strains, or isolates. This is more than three times what he began his biomedical informatics work with. Professor Janies and his team are mapping H5N1’s resistance to certain drugs by location in an effort to stop a potential pandemic.

To add another weapon to this war on the mutating H5N1 virus, the Aquron Corporation International developed the Aquron Virucide. The Aquron Virucide is a highly dilutable product that can be spray-applied by plane or helicopter to migratory avian nesting areas. The Aquron Virucide will terminate the virus on contact with no harm to the avian population or the environment. Aquron Virucide is also very economical and easy to apply in commercial bird operations. Misting to growth chambers will prevent the virus from attacking the birds. The Aquron Virucide will not harm either chicks or mature birds. Misting the growth chambers in commercial operations on a daily scheduled basis will ensure a virus-free environment.

Sky High and Dry With CPSP

  Aquron Concrete Pool Shell Protector was sprayed on to 6,800 square feet of new concrete pool and spa construction for a new condominium located in downtown Miami, Florida. The 52 story high rise facility has 2 pools and spas on an open 14th floor deck. The lap pool is poured concrete, while the free formed pool was shot with Gunite process.

  Both pools and spa were waterproofed by applying Pool Shell Protector with an airless sprayer. The application which penetrates 3 to 5 inches inside the concrete pool walls, forms a silica hydro-gel inside the concrete matrix. This hydro-gel network waterproofs the pool shell from within, which protects the tenants below, strengthens the concrete, protects the reinforcing steel and provides a bond coat for the final pool finish.

The entire application on the 14th floor pool deck was completed in one day.

NO POST MORTEM

  In Cornwall England a 62-year old grandfather was told by doctors that he had six months to live. The doctors and hospital advised him to live it up. John Brandrick did just that. In living it up John spent everything he had and six months went by and John Broderick was still alive and flat broke.

  He has since found out that he was misdiagnosed and therefore wants the hospital to compensate him for the money he spent. The hospital said there was no clear evidence of negligence. The great lesson here to be learned is “Get a second opinion.”

  If someone is trying to place a post mortem on your concrete because it is laden with salt with no relief in sight; if your concrete is deficient in strength; or if imbedded steel placement is too close to the surface, do not let someone convince you to destroy your investment.

  Call the Aquron Technical Department and in all probability we will be able to remove your concrete investment from the guillotine of destruction. Aquron will almost certainly be able to get you back to sleeping at night and keep your money in the bank where it belongs.

I wonder if those post mortemers ever gave John his money back.

Doesn’t expecting the unexpected make the unexpected expected?

World Champion New York Giants

  Giants Stadium was showing signs of age. A need to preserve their facility coupled with the fact that the stadium would not be replaced with a new facility in the near future caused a decision to be made.
Many products were trial tested on the facility to see if they would perform to stadium standards. SOR Laboratories was commissioned to conduct certified testing of all products. All testing was conducted on the actual stadium itself. Following extensive testing of all submitted products only one met the standards established by the stadium authority. Aquron CPT-2000 not only exceeded the requirements of the stadium authority, it outperformed its own literature.

  Following a two-year project of applying the product Aquron CPT-2000 to the stadium it is now protected. Many years of service life has been added to the Giants Stadium and the world champion New York Giants has one of the few remaining truly outdoor stadiums.
