I'm wondering how beneficial it will be to reduce jet lag and/or sickness after being on a plane for a 7 hour trip. crusaders desktop air purifierAlso, any particular brands used that you can recommend?hcpcs code for air purifier Unless it is attached to a perfectly sealing facemask it is useless. usb air purifier ioniser - removes pollen dust smokeYou also puck up germs by touching surfaces and then your mouth/nose/eyes. Just a gadget to separate you from your money.Lots of anecdotal evidence with people claiming they help, but these are the same people who swear that Skin So Soft is more effective for repelling mosquitoes than DEET.

I have yet to see a peer reviewed scientific study that says they make any difference whatsoever. Okay, my response and working backward: 1. Skin So Soft does contain DEET but not a very high concentration, although its "natural" contents are supposed to make it effectiv. I know of a former Canadian Scout group leader who swears by it for our northern climate. 2. Though a normal mask combined with a filter is not likely to reduce jet lag, a personal well-fitted and maintained mask could possibly reduce the risk of contracting an airborne virus on a plane. 3. Also, to see any benefit of reduced jet lag, any mask - with or without an attached filter - that has a supplemental oxygen source will suffice ... but the oxygen concentration going in the mouth must be above 40 percent. To get supplemental oxygen, a person would need either an O2 tank - highly unlikely in an airplane cabin - or an air/gas enhancer similar to a C-PAP machine. 1.) Who told you that Skin So Soft contains DEET?

Not even their Skin So Soft Bug Guard Plus Expedition contains DEET. 2.) There is lots of anecdotal support for Skin So Soft as a mosquito repellent, unfortunately none of those claims have ever been back up scientifically. The New England Jounal of Medicine published one of the most respected and comprehensive tests to date, DEET worked for 300+ minutes and Skin So Soft lasted less than 10 minutes. I'm glad it works for your Scout Leader pal though. The original poster asked if anyone had used one, the replies so far seem to indicate opinions rather than actual use. Groupon has a deal going on the Airtamer A302, for $39. I regularly get sick after any airplane trip so I ordered one. I am tired of my vacations being ruined by colds and worse. A trip to New Zealand resulted in losing two days flat on my back, same on a flight to Mexico. I will try anything to avoid this. Amazon has decent reviews on this device, for whatever that's worth. baraff, I can find no scientific studies that support the usefulness of these devices.

That's not an opinion, that's a fact. The anecdotal evidence given in the reviews on Amazon, etc... In any case I totally understand your issues with air travel. I am blessed (thank God) with a strong immune system but I know lots of people who get knocked down after extended air travel and if one of these devices helps even a tiny little bit then that's fantastic.Hope it helps you. Actually, personal air purifiers have been tested, by both Consumer Reports, the California Air Resources Board, and the Federal Drug Administration. "Personal" air cleaners: These are units designed to be worn around the neck, on a lapel, or in a pocket. To begin with, they are very dangerous because they emit ozone right at the breathing zone; therefore, they can trigger health problems in people with asthma and others with lung problems. They also are ineffective. When Consumer Reports tested one in a test chamber in January 2000, they said that it "barely reduced" the particle concentration in the surrounding air.1 In another study by the California Air Resources Board in 1999, they found that both personal air purifiers they studied exceeded the Federal Drug Administration recommended limit of ozone as well as the World Health Organization eight-hour air quality guideline of 60 ppb.

They recommended that these devices not be used anywhere near the breathing zone, especially by children and persons with asthma, other respiratory diseases, or allergies.6 My apologies Laura, I should have been more precise. I stated I had never seen a test that supported their effectiveness. The tests that slammed them were done quite some time ago on units that are somewhat different than what is offered today. It would be nice to see a real test performed on present day units. I suspect the findings will be no different... You are correct Martian--there are no recent studies I can find. The last one was done in 2003, when Consumer Reports gave a Sharper Image product a "fail." Sharper Image sued Consumer Reports and lost. I wonder if, in the face of this, the ionizers have changed in terms of what they offer. Some technologies move faster than others.... I was having difficulty with long flights and did try a unit (Wein). Maybe coincidence, but I did feel better.
