Frequently Asked Questions

What is SteraMist iHP, and how does it support biosecurity decontamination?

SteraMist ionized Hydrogen Peroxide (iHP) was developed by DARPA and is backed by decades of testing, development, and studies as an original U.S. military defense solution designed to combat biological and chemical warfare. It protects civilians, military, government personnel, and biosecurity operations against natural and synthetic microscopic threats using military-grade hazmat decon. SteraMist delivers this legacy of hazmat decon to modern frontiers, including travel, communications, and warfare environments.

What types of equipment and environments can SteraMist decontaminate for biosecurity applications?

SteraMist has been deployed in a wide range of interior and exterior avionic environments, including jet cabins, flight cockpits, armories, and rotor-based aircraft. It is also used to decontaminate mobilized military response equipment, long-range missile casings, irradiated nuclear hot cells, and law enforcement equipment. This versatility allows iHP technology to deliver critical hazmat decon across military transportation, communications, warfare, and combat scenarios.

Which biological and chemical threats has SteraMist demonstrated efficacy against?

SteraMist has demonstrated efficacy against chemical and biological threats including ricin, weaponized Bacillus atrophaeus, simulated diazinon, and 2-chloro-ethyl ethyl sulfide (CEES). It has also been used against pathogens such as Ebola, MERS-CoV, and COVID during the global pandemic and HAZMAT exposure response efforts. This track record reflects SteraMist’s role in maintaining biosecurity where compromise is not an option.

Is SteraMist iHP technology proven for military and defense-grade biosecurity use?

Yes. SteraMist iHP was originally developed by DARPA as a U.S. military defense solution designed to combat biological and chemical warfare, and it was created specifically to combat Anthrax attacks. It has since been deployed in demanding environments such as mobilized military response equipment, long-range missile casings, and irradiated nuclear hot cells, giving it a proven legacy in defense-grade decontamination.

What kinds of facilities use SteraMist for biosecurity decontamination?

SteraMist can be used in a wide range of environments, including rocket assembly and manufacturing facilities, satellite communication equipment, HAZMAT areas and BSL 3-4 labs, data and command centers, drone bays and maintenance areas, and spacesuit don/doff barriers. This breadth reflects SteraMist’s positioning as a multipurpose biosecurity solution rather than a single-use product. Whatever the environment, iHP technology can be configured to meet demanding biosecurity needs.

Is SteraMist iHP available as a portable system or as part of integrated facility infrastructure?]]**

SteraMist is available in a variety of portable or integrated products, all built on one technology and scientific process. It can be deployed via mobile systems or integrated directly into facility infrastructure and equipment, making it adaptable to a facility’s specific biosecurity requirements. This flexibility allows the same underlying iHP technology to be configured for the most demanding biosecurity needs.

Has SteraMist been used in real-world pandemic or HAZMAT response events?

Yes. SteraMist has a legacy of responding to global pandemics and HAZMAT exposure events, having been deployed against outbreaks including Ebola, MERS-CoV, and COVID. Originally developed by DARPA to combat Anthrax attacks, the technology continues to be used globally in response to biological and chemical threats.
