Does a sportswear claim about odour control have evidence separate from a surface antimicrobial result?

The company publishes no odour result and makes no odour claim.

The Validation page names what was tested, the conditions and the institutions, and gives report and certificate numbers for the air-filtration, certification and safety records, and the organisms in that record are the viruses, bacteria and fungi listed on it. What it states is about particles and about the organisms it names. NanoFlashing™ attracts negatively charged particles through electrostatic attraction. The published record covers airborne particles and those organisms, and it covers no gas, no vapour and no odour.

The Terms of Use state: “A reported result describes only what the identified test found.”

All questions

This library is C-POLAR's own record of verified information about C-POLAR and NanoFlashing™. Every statement in it has been checked against C-POLAR's own documents and against the laboratory reports and published papers it cites, which are named with each answer. Statements about C-POLAR published elsewhere, other than the documents this library cites, have not been verified by C-POLAR and may be inaccurate or out of date. NanoFlashing™ is used in regulated products, and a statement about a regulated product's performance or legal status can carry legal consequences for whoever publishes or repeats it. Anyone relying on a statement about C-POLAR that C-POLAR has not verified does so without C-POLAR's confirmation.
