New IOGear’s Wireless Mouse Keeps Bacteria Away from your Hands

by Nick in USB Gadgets

IOGear Wireless Mouse

IOGear presents a bunch of new USB products and the coolest one is the wireless laser mouse that comes with an antibacterial nano coating technology.

The coating is composed of Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) and Silver (Ag) nano-particle, and uses two mechanisms that deactivate the enzymes and proteins of the bacteria, making it impossible for them to survive on the surface of the mouse.
On its site, IOGear informs us that the mouse is not to be used as an antibiotic and that the user should not ingest the surface material under any circumstances. Thanks a lot for this warning, IOGear, if it wasn’t for that, I’d probably swallow my mouse in the event of a mild fever.

The mouse costs US$ 39.95, find out more at IOGear’s website.
