This study documents the results of a quality colloidal silver product tested against a wide range of illness-causing pathogens. The study proves that colloidal silver is effective as an antibacterial agent against Staph, Candidas, Salmonella and Psuedomonas in laboratory studies ( in-vitro ).

Results: Reduction of population counts from >1 billion to undetectable in two minutes.

Details of the Study

Staphyloccus aureus ATCC12600

Two concentrations of isolated silver were used, one 15 PPM isolated colloidal silver and one 30 PPM isolated colloidal silver. The 30 PPM colloidal silver achieved results markedly faster, although both formulations achieved the desired results within four minutes:

S. aureus 15 PPM 8,000 68 50 10 1 0.12 0.055

The in-vitro lab results conclusively demonstrate that a high quality isolated colloidal silver product is remarkably effective in concentrations of both 15 PPM and 30 PPM against Staph Aureus. A greater concentration demonstrated faster action, however, the results in the first four minutes dropped population counts to nearly non-existant levels with both formulations.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO

Two concentrations of isolated silver were used, one 15 PPM isolated colloidal silver and one 30 PPM isolated colloidal silver. The 30 PPM colloidal silver achieved results markedly faster, although both formulations achieved the desired results within four minutes:

The in-vitro lab results conclusively demonstrate that a high quality isolated colloidal silver product is remarkably effective in concentrations of both 15 PPM and 30 PPM against Psuedomonas aeruginosa. A greater concentration demonstrated faster action, however, the results in the first four minutes dropped population counts to nearly non-existant levels with both formulations.

Salmonella typhimurium

Enterococcus faecalis ATCC19433
