What the test means:
The USP Challenge Test is a well-known test showing ability of a substance
to retard the growth of tested pathogens, much like a preservative protects
the contents of a bottle. These results show that Cellfood® destroyed
all of the five pathogens tested, and they did not return during the entire
28-day testing period.

Interpretation:
The pathogen-retarding capability of the product examined is effective if:
· The concentration of viable bacteria is reduced to not more than 0.1%
of the initial concentration by the 14th day.
· The concentration of viable yeasts and mold remain at or below the
initial concentration during the first 14 days.
· The concentration of each test microorganisms remains at or below
these designated levels during the remainder of the 28-day test period.
