DPRK develops new nano-tech products

Nano-tech water disinfector and toothbrush are now being mass-produced in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported on Wednesday.

The nano-tech water disinfector does not need electricity or any outside energy, but relies on "the pollution-free pasteurization technique of the fifth generation belonging to the category of cold disinfection," the report said.

According to the State Hygienic Inspection Institution, the nano-tech water disinfector has been proven to be able to clean water which passes through it to official state hygienic standards.

The new toothbrush is made of nano-tech antibiotic materials with sterilizing power which "prevents and cures oral diseases including Riggs' disease and dental caries, and it removes halitosis," the KCNA said.

"These products are mass-produced in the Pyongyang Daily Necessities Factory, Sinuiju Cosmetic Factory and other factories, " the KCNA added.
