For Immediate Release: Quantum Introduces MagiCombTM Electronic Lice Comb
March 2001: Kids infested with head lice can go back to school right away -lice free! How? Quantum introduces a new, professional electronic combing tool for home use. MagiCombTM is designed to eliminate head lice and their eggs as well as prevent infestation. With new research proving that some head lice are resistant to the traditional drug store treatments, MagiComb is a safe alternative that really works. Children tested reported that they enjoyed the experience stating that the comb felt like a scalp massage. Parents were pleased with the immediate and dramatic results. By using the comb on a weekly basis, it is possible to remove any new nits and thereby prevent lice infestation. MagiComb's high quality nickel-silver teeth glide gently through any type of hair. The small spacing between teeth catch even the smallest lice and nits. Additional teeth pop in and out for treating more than one person MagiComb's ergonomic design fits the hand to make treating several people easy. Most parents have experienced the tensions and frustrations that come with each head lice infestation. Head lice is the National PTA's number one health problem. The capability of using MagiComb on-the-spot is unique and much needed. This is especially true where head lice are resistant to over the counter treatments. MagiComb has distinct advantages over it's two competitors. One electronic comb works by electrocuting lice. Each time it comes in contact with a louse (or even a piece of lint) it stops operating and the user must disassemble and clean the teeth. Children become impatient. Another electronic comb has vibrating teeth, but they are made of plastic and are more widely spaced than MagiComb's. Both these combs are in the shape of a deck of cards. Ergonomically, MagiComb is far superior. Its wand like shape is designed for the human hand. It has unbreakable steel teeth, is quieter to operate and will go through the thickest, curliest hair with ease as compared to the others. MagiComb was invented by Dr. Shlomi Gilboa, MD, MPH and Mr. Ze'ev Golan, an Electrical Engineer. Dr. Gilboa is a family physician who specialized in Preventive Medicine and Community Health. He established and managed the Epidemiology and Medical Information Department at a large academic medical center abroad. In the US, Dr. Gilboa served as a medical director of the Community Health and Wellness Division at BJC Health System in St. Louis. In addition he was appointed as a visiting Assistant Professor of Medicine at Washington University at St. Louis and as an adjunct Assistant Professor of Community Health at St. Louis University Health Sciences Center - School of Public Health.
