Does the bottle also remove Bacteria and Viruses?
1350020
according to the seychelle site and directly speaking to a rep, the advanced filter is rated to 6 log filtration. 6 log means 99.9999% filtration. this is one of a few filters that is certified to 6 as most are only rated to 4 log. so to answer your direct question, yes it does remove both bacteria and more difficult and smaller is viruses. it is useable for directly filtering wild water but i would be very careful not to contaminate the outlet side of the mouthpiece with dirty water. i also purchased the radiological filter for my son to use while going to school in japan due to the power plant issue just to be safe to filter out all water even their bottled water to pick up trace radiation before consuming. we never leave home without it. hope this helps.

Ask The manufacturer, not me. How should I know. I bought the bottle to be on standby in case of sudden radiation threat.it is natural to assume that it does everything.i would suspect that if radiation was present, that would take care of anything that was living . I have been a satisfied for years using Seychelle's water filter bottles for years. The water sure tastes better and they guarantee that the water filtered is 99.9% pure.

On the Jim & Lori Bakker show (Morningside Church) they state" No disease, including Cancer can exist in an Alkaline environment". Dr. Otto Warburg 1931 Nobel Prize Winner for Cancer Discovery. They sell these for a donation of $100.00 each or 3 for $200.00. They state it takes out radiation, chlorine, silts, aluminum, arsenic, chemicals, asbestos, lead, copper etc. It states the new filtration water bottle not only enhance the pH level in your water to the optimum level of m8.0 to 9.5.Bottom line changes acid water to Alkaline water and removes nearly everything in it??? Is all this too good to be true. On the Jim & Lori Bakker show (Morningside Church) they state" No disease, including Cancer can exist in an Alkaline environment".

No the Seychelle radiological and regular filters do not remove bacteria. You would need the standard filter or the advanced filter to remove bacteria Seychelle Radiological Filter The Radiological filter removes the four basic zones of contamination: Aesthetic (Chlorine, taste and odor), Chemicals (from Industry and Agriculture), Dissolved Solids (heavy metals such as lead, mercury, Chromium 6) and 100% of Radiological Contaminants such as Gross Beta, Radon 222, Radium 226, Plutonium, Uranium, Strontium, Cesium 137 and Radioactive Iodine 131.

I've had mine for about 6 months now and haven't had to replace the bottle. The bottle itself is a soft plastic, so I've never had a problem with it breaking or forming cracks of any kind. If you ask out of concerns for germs and such, you can wash the bottle as long as you rinse it very well.

there is a video on youtube. It doesnt filter viruses or chemicals but does everything else. I filtered dirty lake water through it and it was clear as a bell. I didnt have the water tested before or after, the way I figure it something is better than nothing.

It can filter both city water and well water. It doesn't filter out virus and bacteria, though. For well water, a whole house UV stage (#UVF55) is recommended if bio contamination is concerned.

i think just the smell. but if you read the label of this product it should tell you what it does. most i think it says that it reduces harmful bacterias and chemicals but not remove. again, pls double check the label about what it claims. regards

It is, but careful use and regular cleaning works well.If the question refers to the extreme case of spreading infectious disease in-depth disinfection should be indicated [I've no experience on that].

I did refrigerate the actual bottle. However, I used it to make hand sanitizer and did not refrigerate the hand sanitizer.

Yea, I used it with no ill effects. Actually, IMO it is fairly weak stuff. After the bottle was empty. I refilled it with pure bleach and some dishwashing soap. Then it did a great cleaning job. Guess what I'm saying is the container was the best part of the purchase.

It isn't anything. It only works like a cleaner at best. You get a microscopic.bottle which does not contain miracle drops of hi tech protection. Do not waste your money like I did.

I don't believe it does. I finished the bottle and no longer have it so I can't check.

No, but it does work and just a little bit is needed. I've used it twice and still have over 3/4 of the bottle remaining.

You might want to read in on the company at their website, but I know the filter size on the lifesaver is extremely fine (15 nanometers). So as long as the pesticides and chemicals are bigger in size than the filter I think the technology of the bottle does filter pesticides, other chemicals, and viruses. You can also choose to use the optional carbon disk. The installation of the optional filter is in the manual and comes with the bottle, but only gets you 250 liters of water before replacement.

Yes it does destroys any toxic odors and bad bacteria from the body. I uses this product usually daily in a bottle of water or a glass of o.j&#9786;

Yes. It removes everything. It reduces TDS to zero. Be aware that this water is NOT suitable for drinking. It is intended for special decontamination situations such as saltwater aquariums.

Yes. The entire glass insert comes out and can be cleaned. Use a good liquid soap and dry it completely to try and remove all of the previous fragrance out of the bottle.

No but Method has a different product in a green spray bottle that is anti-bacterial.

CCS, it's not much but this is the information I found on the Water One Pure Sip Personal Water Purifier: Used like a drinking straw, Pure Sip is a complete micro-system that kills bacteria and viruses instantly on contact as well as removing cysts such as Giardia. ViroBac, Water One's proprietary media, disinfects on contact and instantly kills 99.99% of bacteria and 99.7% of viruses. The proprietary compound is ionically bonded to a carrier media and works on demand, only if microorganisms are present allowing for extended use for up to three years. Tested extensively for over twenty years by independent laboratories such as Loyola University Medical School using EPA protocol Pure Sip has been proven to kill bacteria and viruses under continuous and repeat conditions.
