A retainer apparatus including a first retainer portion, a second retainer portion, a wireless transceiver, and a sensor. The sensor includes a first sensor portion physically contained within the first retainer portion and a second sensor portion physically contained within the second retainer portion. The first retainer portion is removably attached to the second retainer portion. The sensor is configured to detect the first retainer portion being disconnected from the second retainer portion and generate a warning signal. The wireless transceiver is configured to wirelessly transmit the warning signal to a controller in a vehicle to activate an audible warning alert to warn a user in the vehicle of the first retainer portion being disconnected from the second retainer portion.

An antimicrobial barrier seatbelt covering apparatus for preventing a cross contamination between hosts contacting with a seatbelt includes stripes of antimicrobial material creating a barrier against pathogens accumulated on a seatbelt, a container for storage of the antimicrobial material that can be attached on one end of the seatbelt, and a holding device to fix the material on the other end of the seatbelt. The antimicrobial seatbelt covering may be used in applications including seatbelts in cars seats, airplanes, boats where the seatbelt covering controls the level of cross contamination by preventing unwanted microbes that contact the seatbelt and thereby, prevents the spread of disease and infections.
