"Anthrax attacks - either as a hoax, or the very deadly real thing -- are a continual
headache to the security community, because this dangerous pathogen is easily sent
through the mail. Mail Defender III is the ONLY equipment that actually kills anthrax,
smallpox, SARS, avian flu, and many other dangerous substances in the customer's
office," said Michael Lu, Chairman and CEO of BioDefense Corporation.
Pat Heller, President of Elkhart-based ThermoDyne (thermodynel.com). added
"Mail Defender's ingenious technology, which combines ultraviolet, microwave and high
frequency energy to neutralize dangerous pathogens works because of our thermal
solutions. ThermoDyne's microporous insulations systems minimize all modes of heat
transfer simultaneously within minimum space and weight requirements. In other words,
Mail Defender kills the pathogens without cooking the mail."
