Document #2 - Testing for Use as an Antiseptic

Antiseptic Challenges:

Aspergillus Niger at 1 billion microorganisms were killed at the rate of 99.91%.

Wikipedia: Aspergillus niger is a fungus and one of the most common species of the genus Aspergillus. It causes a disease called black mold on certain fruits and vegetables such as grapes, onions, and peanuts, and is a common contaminant of food.

Staphylococcus Aureus at 5.76 billion microorganisms were killed at the rate of 99.99%.

Wikipedia: Staphylococcus aureus (literally "Golden Cluster Seed") the most common cause of staph infections, is a spherical bacterium, frequently living on the skin or in the nose of a person, that can cause a range of illnesses from minor skin infections, such as pimples, impetigo, boils, cellulitis and abscesses, to life-threatening diseases, such as pneumonia, meningitis, endocarditis, Toxic shock syndrome (TSS), and septicemia.

Trichophyton Mentagrophytes at 1.7 billion microorganisms were killed at the rate of 99.91%.

Wikipedia: Trichophyton mentagrophytes is a keratinophylic fungus belonging to a homogeneous group of fungi called the dermatophytes. The dermatophytes cause a variety of cutaneous infections in humans and animals.

Conclusions:

The Silverdyne product at three drops in two milliliters of phosphate buffered water with Tween 80 containing the challenge microorganisms produced a greater than 99.9% kill of the test microorganisms Aspergillus niger, Staphylococcus aureus and Trichophyton Mentagrophytes.
