The minds behind OdorSol
OdorSol wasn't born in a marketing meeting. It was invented by a practicing veterinarian and rigorously validated by a chemist whose career is dedicated to hypochlorous acid (HOCl) research. Every bottle is the product of decades of peer-reviewed science — not synthetic perfume.
The Inventor
Dr. Jeff Williams
DVM, PhD · CEO
Chief Executive Officer · Inventor
A veterinarian who spent 40 years proving that clean can be safe.
Dr. Jeff Williams began his career as a veterinary clinician in England, treating small animals before transitioning into academic biomedical research. He spent more than 25 years at Michigan State University, including two decades as Professor of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics. He still operates a working livestock farm in Washington state — caring for sheep and goats with the same products he formulates.
A globally recognized expert in microbiology and infectious diseases, Dr. Williams has authored over 200 scientific papers and textbook chapters. He is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), has served on the Board of Counselors for the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIH), and has been a trusted consultant to the World Health Organization in Geneva.
In 1998 he founded HaloSource Inc., a biotechnology company focused on advanced antimicrobial solutions. Today, as CEO of OdorSol, he brings a rare combination of scientific rigor, hands-on veterinary experience, and global health perspective to every bottle.

Chief Scientific Advisor
The chemist who literally wrote the research on HOCl.
Dr. Lori I. Robins is a distinguished chemist, academic leader, and researcher whose work has significantly advanced the understanding and application of hypochlorous acid (HOCl) in antimicrobial science and public health. She serves as Professor of Chemistry and Associate Dean at the University of Washington Bothell.
She earned her B.S. in Biochemistry from Brandeis, her Ph.D. in Bioorganic Chemistry from UC Davis, and refined her expertise in lipid biochemistry as a postdoctoral researcher at Duke. Her lab has secured competitive funding from the NSF and NIH, and she served as Principal Investigator on a NIAID grant exploring HOCl for sanitation and odor control in rural communities.
Since 2015, Dr. Robins' research has focused extensively on active chlorine compounds — examining HOCl's efficacy in inactivating clinically significant pathogens, malodor control, and chronic wound care. She has authored more than 20 peer-reviewed publications and is a co-inventor on two U.S. patent applications for HOCl-based therapeutics.

100% science. Zero compromise.
Most cleaning brands are built by marketers. OdorSol was invented by a veterinarian, formulated by microbiologists, and validated by a chemist whose entire career is HOCl research. That's why we can stand behind every claim — and every bottle.
