ABSTRACT:
Described is a method for reducing the amount of microorganisms in contaminated air in which a fiberglass containing air filtration media is provided which contains an antimicrobially effective amount of an inorganic antimicrobial agent; and forcing the contaminated air through the air filter thereby reducing the amount of microorganisms in the contaminated air. The invention further pertains to media for reducing the amount of microorganisms present in contaminated air as well as methods of applying the inorganic antimicrobial agents to the media and for the media to be present in a rigid air filter.
