Work completed at the number one ranked material science lab in the world in conjunction with two other major universities has proven that the silver technology created by American Biotech Labs is very unique among all the silver products tested.  The American Biotech Labs products contained measurable energies that none of the other tested silver products contained.  Patents have been filed on these unique energy signatures.  Most ionic and colloidal silver products work by chemical action, and thus can be problematic to the human system.  The American Biotech Labs products work by catalytic action and thus are not metabolized by the body.  It is estimated that between 90-99% of the silver is excreted from the body through both the urinary and fecal tracts in two days, with greater then 99% excreted within a week (based on IRIS report, fifth page, first paragraph).  Because the American Biotech Labs technology works catalytically and not chemically the product is much more effective at lower silver concentrations.   Also, because the product is not metabolized, it safe for human consumption when used as directed.  American Biotech Labs products have  been shown completely safe for usage in seven completed safety studies (see safety studies).
