Do the encapsulation solutions have any effect on or encapsulate and neutralize Bacteria,Virus,Odor Molecules,Mold or Mildew?
Has their been any qualifiable research on this?

I think it's a long term health hazard being that the polymers will become airborne over time and injested into the human body.
Most truthful claims that are made are not claimed to be absolute or 100%.Shawn Forsythe said:Mardie said:Do the encapsulation solutions have any effect on or encapsulate and neutralize Bacteria,Virus,Odor Molecules,Mold or Mildew?

If there has been such research, none have been shown to meet the requisite US EPA regulations that would permit such claims, as of yet. In order to protect the public from misinformation and unsubstantiated claims of efficacy, any and all products, services, or methods of disinfection/sanitization,etc. of inanimate surfaces must undergo a registration process in order to have claims validated prior to any commerce in the application of such. Furthermore, the claims must be accompanied by carefully worded instruction on how to perform the method or service that would yield the prescribed effectiveness for an enumerated task.
Odor is a different story. It is certainly reasonable that if the product claims removal of non-pathogenic odor source material, regulation is not required. But I don't see much in the way of specifics on encapsulation marketing. There are certainly generalities that abound that most encap products will afford a decrease in offending soils that contribute to odor.

I remember him talking to me about 4 years ago before it went to market, then I also remember a flyer coming through. I haven't heard much of it in recent times so it'd be interesting to see if it ever got off the ground or not.
Don't quote me on this, but I think it was a blend of Rob Goldsworthy's products and Ricky G's Releasit range.
It's not a type of cleaning that I'm involved with, so I never looked further, but for someone heavily involved in medical/dental practice scheduled cleanings and or hospital/health care facilities, I think it had some amazingly high test results.
