However, while an environment with a relative humidity of 60% reduces the number of suspended droplet particles, airborne droplet particles fall down and adhere to surfaces. Therefore, it is also necessary to consider the countermeasures against adhering viruses.<\/p>\n<p>                  In this verification, Plasmacluster Technology significantly inactivates SARS-CoV-2 contained in adherent saliva in an environment with 60% humidity where the physiological protective function is maintained. The current result also shows its efficacy to the variant strain, which must be applied to new variants that will appear in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"redborderBox study2Top\">\n                     <strong>&#8211; Professor Hironori Yoshiyama<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>(Department of Microbiology-Shimane University Faculty of Medicine)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-6 text-center\">\n               <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/in.sharp\/b2c\/wp-content\/themes\/storefront-childb2c\/custom\/covid\/study2-box2.png\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"covid19-video mt-5\">\n            <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1X8pYEMztQk\" title=\"YouTube video player\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" width=\"100%\" height=\"515\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<div class=\"videodescription\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-12\">\n<h2>VERIFICATION OF AIRBORNE DROPLET PARTICLE DEPENDENCE ON HUMIDITY<\/h2>\n<p>In a simulated environment, SHARP examined the mobility of droplets at various humidity levels.
