Well, I did my own accidental yogurt making tests here at home, and my results were the exact opposite. I cannot make yogurt with half and half that has CS added. And the amount of CS added was approx a tablespoon or two of 10 to 15 ppm CS to about a pint of half and half. While not controlled by any means, I have to say I trust my own accidental home test over the lab results posted, since the yogurt making bacteria are one of the ones reported to NOT be affected by CS. If those lab tests are indeed accurate and repeatable, half and half treated with CS should have yogged, and it didn't. Same starter used in un-CS treated ahlf and half did yog. My opinion remains CS does not distinguish between probiotic bacteria, L acidophilus, or any other bacteria.

Subject: [ silvermedicine.org ] ASAP Tested against Probiotics...
Date: Mon, 19 Apr 2004 12:43:48 -0700

Greetings, everyone:

Bob Manfull was kind enough to forward me a copy demonstrating the selective 
inaction of ASAP on Probiotics.  Laboratory testing was done by Viridis Bio 
Pharma out of India in March.

ASAP was tested against Lactobacillus acidophillus, Bifidobacterium longum, and 
two probiotic products:  Lactisyn and Kyo-Dophilus.

ASAP at 10 PPM and at 22 PPM did not inhibit the growth of any of the above.

Lactisyn contains Lactobacillus lactis, Lactobacillus acidophilus, 
Streptococcus lactis, and Streptococcus thermophilus.

Kyo-Dophilus contains Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum, and 
Bifidobacterium longum.

These test results present a million unanswered questions, and should be 
confirmed by other parties capable of doing so.

Best Regards,

Jason
