Antiviral and antimicrobial spray
SPARTHA Medical is developping an innovative solution which is an antiviral and antimicrobial spray. Completely free of alcohol and chlorine derivatives, it is a promising alternative to hydroalcoholic gels. It is a biocide, antiviral and antimicrobial spray that has the effect of desactivating SARS-CoV-2 and preventing it from infecting cells.
This involves covering the implant with the product to form a protective layer, like an invisible shield, against which any bacteria die.
What you need to know about disinfectant sprays on the market
Antiviral and antibacterial sprays can be useful in reducing the transmission of certain contagious diseases, such as respiratory infections and influenza. They can also help prevent bacterial infection of the skin and mucous membranes. However, it is important to note that excessive use of antimicrobial products can lead to antimicrobial resistance and make infections more difficult to treat.
SPARTHA Medical’s innovation is unequalled because it has an antibacterial effect without the use of antibiotics.
It is based on natural polymers, which makes it biocompatible, and is applicable to all types of surfaces. The spray is based on components of natural origin and protects from bacterial infections, including antibiotic resistant strains, without affecting their primary function.
In concrete terms, this involves covering the implant or the surface with the product to form a protective layer, like an invisible shield, against which any bacteria die.
- The product can be sprayed on any surface to disinfect and protect it, or applied directly to the skin, since it is harmless.
- The product can also be used directly on the respiratory entry points of the virus: mouth and nose.
Electronic devices have long been recognised as potential fomites.
With the help of SPARTHA Medical’s analysis, Virtual Reality headset companies may be able to provide the required information on potential microbial transmissions / best practices and validation of safety measures in headsets.

Cosmetic accessories and applicators are among the high-risk products for microbial contamination during their use. This contamination poses a risk to users and is of particular concern to industry.
SPARTHA Medical has developed a solution for cosmetic companies wishing to reinforce the hygiene measures of their products.
To assist companies in improving hygiene measures, we offer feasibility studies to assess the needs, scope of the project and carry out preliminary tests. The study consists of various quantitative and qualitative tests of the contamination of the applicators, followed by the development and optimisation of personalised coatings for these products.
With an action against bacteria and viruses, our technology can have an impact on the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 3.2.1: Under-five mortality rate; and 3.2.2: Neonatal mortality rate. In the period 2000-2003, pneumonia was responsible for 19% of deaths in children under-five.
Over the period 2000-2016, 15% of newborn deaths worldwide were due to sepsis or meningitis.
