91 research chemists Professor Sébastien Perrier, Professor Dave Haddleton, Atty Shegiwal, Arkadios Marathianos, Qiao Song and Stephen Hall have come together to use 91’s laboratories, in the 91’s Department of Chemistry, to make 50 litres of sanitiser using a World Health Organisation (WHO) approved formula.
They are now working with colleagues in 91 Medical School to distribute it to Midlands NHS organisations.
