Here are just a few of the many test Results for
the New Silver Solution
American Silver’s Antibacterial Product (The NEW Silver
Solution -14ppm) Testing Results Summary.
The following results suggest that The NEW Silver Solution is a broad
spectrum antimicrobial agent – it is able to effectively stop the
growth of, and in fact kill, a variety of bacteria.
Tuberculosis type B (tuberculosis is the number one human-killing
bacteria world wide)
Staphylococcus aureus (Pneumonia, eye infections, skin infections
(boils, impetigo, cellulitis, and post-operative wound infections),
toxic shock syndrome, meningitis, food poisoning, osteomyelitis, and
many others) inhibited @ 2.5 ppm[c][12] and killed @ 5 ppm. 1/22/99 BYU Report.
Shigella boydii (Bacillary dysentery–characterized by severe cramping
abdominal pain and bloody diarrhea) inhibited @ 1.25 ppm and killed @
2.5 ppm. 1/22/99 BYU Report.

killed @ 5 ppm. 1/28/99 BYU Report.

and killed @ 2.5 ppm. 6/7/99 BYU Report.
E. coli (Food poisoning, urinary tract infections, traveler’s
diarrhea, diarrhea in infants, respiratory tract infections, and wound
infections) inhibited and killed @ 2.5 ppm. 1/22/99 BYU Report.

meningitis, throat and sinus infections (including epiglottitis in
children and sinusitis), and suppurative arthritis in children)

THE
NEW SILVER SOLUTION vs. OTHER COLLOIDAL SILVERS

From: David
Revelli
Brigham Young University
We have tested
and compared the activity of The Silver Solution against three
commerical colloidal silver solutions using the Minimum Inhibitory
Concentration test (MIC) and the Minimum Bacteriocidal Concentration (MBC)
test. The data obtained suggests that The Silver Solution is at least
two to three times more effective depending on the bacteria tested
than the commerical colloidal silver products tested.

THE
NEW SILVER SOLUTION vs. ANTHRAX

Alpine, UT 84004
Dear Mr. Moeller:
The study, IITRI 1708 SN1, investigating the sporicidal properties of
22 ppm NEW Silver Solution PLUS against anthrax is complete. The
protocol and results are as follows:
Bacillus anthracis ANR-1 was grown on sporulation media, harvested
into deionized water, heat-shocked, and stored as a spore suspension.
The final concentration of this spore suspension was approximately 1 x
109 spores/ml.
A total of 33 conical tubes were filled with 4.95 ml 22 ppm NEW Silver
Solution PLUS and inoculated with 50µl of B. anthracis spore
suspension, for a final concentration of approximately 1 x 107
spores/ml. Three of the tubes were harvested immediately by dispensing
1 ml into 9 ml TSB, serially diluting in saline, and plating on TSA.
Fifteen of the tubes were incubated at room temperature, while the
remaining 15 were incubated at 37ºC. At time points 30 min, 1 hour, 2
hours, 4 hours and 6 hours three tubes from each incubation
temperature were harvested as above. An additional Time 0 control of
50µl spore suspension in 4.95 ml sterile water was also used. The
plates were incubated at 37ºC for 48 hours, and colonies were counted.
The results in Table 1.

Minimal reduction in spore numbers was seen compared to the Time 0
control. After 4 hours, a reduction of approximately half a log (93%)
was seen at both incubation temperatures, while at 6 hours a reduction
of approximately 1 log (99%) was seen only at 37ºC.
Environmental controls were negative for growth, and no contamination
was observed on the plates.

WATER TREATMENT TESTS
FROM: Bill Dodds
TO: Gerard Yates
RE: NEW Silver Solution
water tests
Procedure: I collected
500 ml of raw (Provo River water) sample and inoculated the sample
with 2 loops (3mm) of Klebsiella oxtyoca. Using the membrane filter
technique for total coliform, five 100 ml of aliquots of the sample
were filtered.
Number 1 was spiked
with a .10 mg/l concentration of silver solution. Number 2 was spiked
with a .20 mg/l concentration of silver solution. Numbers 3 and 4 were
each spiked with a .50 mg/l concentration of silver solution. A
positive control of 100 ml was used without silver addition.
A 1.5 minute contact
time was allowed on sample 1 before filtering. A 2 minute contact time
was used on sample 2. A 10 minute contact time was used for samples 3
and 4.
The filters were
incubated at 35° C for 24 hours.
RESULTS: The
positive control = 705 cfu/100 ml. Samples 1 thru 4 contained 0 cfu/100
ml. William J. Dodds
Lab Director
TO: American Silver
FROM: Gerard Yates
CONCLUSION:
The NEW Silver Solution effectively killed
all colony forming units (bacteria) in a spiked raw river water sample
containing a 0.10 ppm concentration of NEW Silver Solution in 1.5
minutes of contact.
Note: The NEW
Silver Solution was not removed from the water sample prior to
filtration. Therefore The NEW Silver Solution residual on the membrane
filter may have inhibited growth during incubation.
