Applied UV, Inc. has engaged Quantiva(TM), to support the further development and expansion of the Company's proprietary indoor air quality monitoring software, PURONet(TM). The initial objective of the collaboration is to leverage Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence to expand the capabilities of Applied UV's brand, Airocide(TM), a patented air purification technology originally co- developed by the University of Wisconsin for use by NASA to grow crops in space. The Airocide(TM) proprietary technology eliminates airborne pathogens including bacteria, viruses, pollen, mold, yeast, allergens, VOCs, and odors and is known globally for its ability to remove ethylene by utilizing Photo-catalytic Oxidation.

It is currently used extensively in the post-harvest food preservation supply-chain with global end users such as Delmonte, Whole Foods and Esmerelda Farms to name a few. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, there is a world-wide estimated $400 billion per year a post-harvest crop loss due to Spoilage along the supply chain. Quantiva(TM) is working with Applied UV to harness the power of diverse data inputs and Artificial Intelligence for integration into both the Company's existing PURONet indoor air monitoring and control software, and the Company's Airocide(TM) product line.

This more advanced product offering is expected to improve outcomes in the logistical supply chains of growers to distributors, transportation companies, and grocers; significantly reducing the magnitude of food spoilage and loss which adversely impacts countries, companies, and consumers around the world.
