"AGT Receives Funding From the Environmental Protection Agency Through the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program"
February, 2004.
AGT has been awarded a Phase I SBIR contract from The US EPA. This project seeks to develop a novel process for low-temperature sterilization of medical equipment. The OAUGDP™ technology is envisioned as a replacement for existing sterilization technologies, including ethylene oxide, which poses environmental, health and safety risks. Furthermore, the OAUGDP™ technology holds promise to be less expensive than competing technologies and have a relatively fast cycle time.
