In
the mid 80'es, with the increasing spread of HIV among
children in developing countries, the World Health Organization
approached manufacturers of standard syringes to develop
a so-called autodisable syringe - a syringe for immunization,
which would render itself un-usable after one injection.
In 1989, the founder of DestroJect, Mr. M. Bader, applied
for a patent for such a syringe, and in 1990 the syringe
was field-tested in Pakistan, laboratory tested in Sweden,
and shortly thereafter, the DestroJect syringe received
the WHO approval as the first autodestruct syringe in
the world. During the past 10 years, we have supplied
our product to the international aid organizations.
