Bacteria
What is a bacteria?
Bacteria are living microorganisms that exist almost everywhere on Earth! They only contain one cell and are vital to our global ecosystem. Some live in extreme conditions of pH, temperature and pressure. Our bodies are full of bacteria.
What is the difference between enzymes and bacteria?
Bacteria are living organisms that produce non-living proteins known as enzymes, which break down waste into smaller pieces. After they've finished their work, they die. Bacteria, on the other hand, live longer, continuing to multiply and produce more enzymes.
What is the difference between good bacteria and bad bacteria?
Bacteria produce a diverse range of effects depending on what they require to do to survive. Most of these bacteria are harmless to humans and animals, in fact, they’re beneficial helping to solve problems (like the ones used in our products, or helping us digest food. However, there are a small number of species of bacteria that can cause diseases such as Escherichia coli and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB).
Is this product safe for me to use?
Yes, all of our products contain non-pathogenic bacteria (good bacteria), which are non-toxic and safe for daily use. Better still, our products are not tested on animals and are not harmful to animals and aquatic life.
What happens when it gets in contact with food?
We recommend avoiding contact with food. If this happens, any small amount of product digested should NOT cause a negative effect on human health. However, if possible, wash thoroughly or do not consume, since the taste will be altered by the substances in our products.
Why is bacteria an effective solution?
Bacteria used in ABS’ products occur naturally and tackle specific problems as they will use the waste we produce to feed themselves and grow and live. ABS’ bacteria will specifically consume only the substance we aim the product to be used for and they can continuously work 24/7 for you, making it more effective than traditional solutions that require continuous top-ups.
It's an environmentally friendly solution that helps business further their sustainability initiatives. Our products regenerate natural systems, helping to restore and protect ecosystems.
