Results Twenty-one treatment experiments with KennelSol ® APS Room “Shock” Deodorizer were conducted in a two-month span. The individual data points are referenced in the Appendix (see Table 2). Average ClO 2 levels in the room air space, presented as parts-per-million-by-volume (ppmv), are displayed in Table 1. This data is presented in graphical form in Figure 4. The theoretical ClO 2 levels were calculated assuming all ClO 2 produced by the sachets accumulate in the room air and is not consumed. The ClO 2 generation expected of one sachet was determined by suspending a sachet over 10% KI solution in an enclosed glass container, placing the container in an unlit cabinet and analyzing via titration at 1-hour intervals for four hours. Theoretical and actual ClO 2 levels are presented in Figure 5.
