Refrigerator Ozonator for Food Storage
and Ethylene Gas Food Decay
Eliminate Odors ∙ Reduce Food Spoilage ∙ Slow Food Decay of Ripening
Fruit ∙ Inhibit Mold Growth
How Does Ethylene Affect Ripening Fruit and Vegetables?
  Once
cut, fresh vegetables, fruits, flowers and plants produce ethylene gas as they
age. If
allowed to accumulate, the ethylene further accelerates the aging process.
Continuous or intermittent use of appropriate levels of ozone in refrigerated
spaces has shown to be effective in reducing the rate of plant and produce aging
by destroying ethylene gas without producing any negative side effects on the
product, thus reducing food spoilage and decay and extending the quality and shelf life of most
produce.
Improve Food Storage by Eliminating
the Ethylene gas Food Spoilage Factors
The Refrigerator Ozonator delays
molding and decay of many foods you buy — including fruits and
vegetables — helping them retain their freshness and flavor longer. The
average household throws away 150 pounds of produce every year, due to
spoiling before use. The Refrigerator Ozonator could save your family $300
during the first year, alone, more than four times the purchase price!
 "I
spent hundreds of dollars a month on organic, highly perishable
fresh fruits and vegetables. The Refrigerator Ozonator paid for itself in less
than three months." --
B. Lueke, San Diego, CA

The
Refrigerator Ozonator significantly reduces the bacterial and fungal loads in the air and on
surfaces where plants, flowers and produce are stored, creating the sanitary
environment needed to dramatically enhance product quality, improve product
longevity, reduce spoilage and extend shelf life.
Eliminates Odors in Your Refrigerator
The Refrigerator Ozonator
eradicates odors in your refrigerator caused by many foods, including leftovers.
 "Our refrigerator at the office
doesn't stink anymore. It's a miracle!"

Fits Neatly in Your Refrigerator
 Refrigerator
Ozonator is engineered for the harsh conditions of cold with high levels of humidity and
are ideal for use in refrigerators. These units will dramatically improve
hygienic conditions by significantly reducing the level of biological
contaminants, including bacteria, viruses and mold, and are effective in
neutralizing unpleasant odors and eliminating odor transference between
products. It requires four (4) ''D'' batteries and the dimensions are 5'' Wide x 5.25''
High x 2.5'' Deep. The unit treats 16 cubic feet.
Promotes a Clean Refrigerator Environment
The Refrigerator Ozonator promotes a clean environment inside your
refrigerator. When produced in sufficient quantities, ozone is known to oxidize,
and, thereby, destroy many harmful germs and bacteria, molds, and yeast that may
cause infection or incidents of disease and illnesses that can be transmitted
from one family member to another by hand contact on foods, food containers and
other hard surfaces inside your refrigerator.
 "It's
so simple! Like having a maid in the fridge. I just put it on the
top shelf and there it sits, working all by itself! "
T. Helper, Las Vegas, NV
The
Refrigerator Ozonator is $46.95 and runs on four (4) "D" batteries (not included).
Simple to Use
Step 1: Open the box and remove your Refrigerator
Ozonator
from the Styrofoam shield and its protective plastic covering.
Step 2: Press both tabs on the sides of the
Refrigerator Ozonator at the same time to separate the top half of the
Refrigerator Ozonator from the
lower half (battery compartment). Insert four (4) "D" size batteries properly
into the lower-battery compartment of the Refrigerator Ozonator (batteries not included).
Step 3: Firmly reattach the lower half of the
Refrigerator Ozonator to the top half. Once the two halves are securely attached, the light
on the front of the Refrigerator Ozonator will turn solid green, indicating the
Refrigerator Ozonator is
activated and working properly.
Step 4: Place the Refrigerator Ozonator on the top shelf
inside your refrigerator. Do not remove the Refrigerator Ozonator from your refrigerator
during operation, except to replace the batteries.
How Safe Is Ozone?
In 1997 the FDA deemed that ozone was “generally recognized as
safe” as a disinfectant for foods. It can be used to increase crop yield,
protect foods during storage and transit, and for general sanitizing purposes.
The National Organic Standards Board also allows ozone use for
processing.
According to the National Food Processors Association, ozone
is very efficient in killing pathogens and spoilage organisms, and its use by
the food industry will be welcomed as another tool to ensure the production of
safe and wholesome foods.
The USDA says ozone can be applied to sanitize and can also
help prevent spoilage during shipping.
Scientific Advisors
D.M. Graham, Ph.D. -
Dr. Graham pioneered the application of ozone as an antimicrobial agent in food
processing, and chaired a national panel of food safety experts in 1997,
resulting in GRAS (Generally Accepted As Safe) affirmation of ozone for use in
food processing. This was followed by a Food Additive Petition (FAP)presented to the
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2000, and approved in 2001.
Rip G. Rice, Ph.D. -
Dr. Rice served as an information resource to the Electric Power Research
Institute ("EPRI") panel of experts that declared ozone to be GRAS for direct
contact with foods in June of 1997. Later, the EPRI commissioned Dr. Rice to
write a Food Additive Petition (FAP) requesting FDA approval of ozone as an
antimicrobial agent for direct contact with foods. That FAP was submitted in
August 2000 and was approved by the FDA in 2001.
Independent Study
An independent study proved the Refrigerator Ozonator™ is "very effective" in eliminating
“strong food odors” and protecting storage life of strawberries and other
produce. The shelf life of cut cantaloupe was more than doubled by storage with
the Refrigerator Ozonator.
According to an independent study, conducted
by R & D
Enterprises of Walnut Creek, CA, a leading laboratory for ozone
research, refrigerator odor elimination
by the Refrigerator Ozonator is "very effective" even for foods such as unwrapped
gorgonzola cheese, unwrapped onions, fresh crushed garlic, cooked
cabbage and four-day old raw chicken parts. This claim is well
supported by data from a ten-member professional panel. All ten
panelists rated the Refrigerator Ozonator test refrigerator as having essentially
"no food odors", while a normal fridge with the same contents was
characterized as having "strong food odors".
The same study showed that produce such as fresh
strawberries were much improved by storage with ozone. Molding was
prominent in the control berries, while the Refrigerator Ozonator-protected
berries still looked fresh and wholesome after storage for eight (8) days.
In addition, the shelf life of cut cantaloupe was more than doubled
by storage with the Refrigerator Ozonator. Celery stalks remained firm much
better with ozone; the improvement compared to storage in a non-Refrigerator
Ozonator
fridge was "very noticeable".
The
Refrigerator Ozonator is $46.95 and runs on four (4) "D" batteries (not included).
