Herbert B.: Have the advantages of activated water in agriculture and veterinary medicine that were identified in the Natterer era later been confirmed?
As far as I know, electro-activated water is not considered a standard option in agriculture, although there are a lot of contemporary companies offering it. I once again found the most interesting literature in Prilutsky and Bakhir's standard work.
They report on page 85:
The feed expenditure for 1000 eggs decreased by 400% in hens that were soaked with alkaline activated water (-600 to -6,4 mV ORP CSE), although the results were found to be best when the animals were fed 3 hours before and 2 Drink hours after feeding.
Sexually mature hens were soaked with acidic activated water (600-1100 mV ORP CSE) on fasting days: they showed only 1% salmonella infestation of the follicles in the ovary, while the control group with untreated water had 4%. Acidic activated water with this oxidation strength reduces salmonella infestation in the chicken intestine by 10 to 20 times.
Chickens soaked with alkaline activated water -500 to -600 mV ORP CSE had higher red blood cell and hemoglobin contents.
The number of white blood cells decreased, indicating that the inflammatory potential was reduced.
When watered with alkaline active water -500 mV, chickens showed the best absorption capacity for nitrogen fertilizers, vitamins, fats and minerals, as well as the maximum buildup of muscle mass (anabolic effect).
Freshly laid eggs are washed with pH 9,5 to 11 ORP -600 – 900 mV CSE.
1988 – 1991: In Latvia, dairy calves were additionally given alkaline activated water for 3 months. The growth advantage was between 17 and 32%. 100% of calves with weak health who were given active water survived, compared to 25% in the control group.
In pig experiments in Latvia, soaking with alkaline active water resulted in a doubling of the growth rate. Breeding technologist G. Dupuzhe attributes this fantastic effect to the fact that the pigs suffered less from diarrhea.
On page 91 it says: Slaughtered poultry is treated with chilled acidic active water during the cooling phase and is thus given a better hygienic condition than if this is done with normal tap water.
A bath in heated alkaline active water makes it easier to remove the feathers from the poultry carcass. After subsequent treatment with 2 degrees C cold acidic active water 1100 mV CSE, there was no longer any bacterial contamination at all.
In animal breeding, watering with 10 ml/kg body weight of alkaline active water pH 7,5 to 9,5 has proven to be optimal. pH values of 12 worsen economic success.
If pig skins are to be processed further after slaughter, they must be disinfected and dried. The usual processes lead to harmful protein breakdown and drying takes a long time. Both factors improve when acidic active water pH 2 ORP -840 mV is used.
Since the alkaline active water penetrates the pores of the eggshell, its washing effect is enormous. The eggs are then washed with anolyte to kill the germs on the shell. This alternating use of alkaline and acidic activated water results in 25 days of protection against germ contamination.
On page 90 it is reported: In 1981 it was found out in Tashkent: Sour milk becomes alkaline again if you put it in a pot ionizer. Palatability and biological value are completely restored. This works up to an acidity of 50 Turner (= 20 degrees SH)
From 1992 to 1993, the effect of the extraction effect of activated water on interesting biosubstances was investigated. When extracting propolis bee resin with alkaline active water PH 11 - 11,7 ORP - 700 to 820 mV CSE was shown
Non-activated water had no effect. Ethyl alcohol extracted a yellowish, honey-smelling liquid with an optical density of 0,15 D at pH 9. In contrast, the alkaline active water extracted a brown, honey-smelling liquid with an optical density of 1.0 and remained stable for 3 years.
The effect of this fluid on common veterinary thawed bovine sperm cells was 30 times less toxic than the ethyl alcohol fluid when performed under the same conditions at a dilution of 1:400 in a standard medium.
There was also a significant advantage in the extraction of ginseng root powder: the best results were achieved at pH 5,8 ORP 760 mV.
In summary, it can be said that activated water has a selectively better extraction effect from plant base material.
So much for agriculture and livestock breeding
In general, the two star authors rave about the “green chemistry in agriculture” that activated water makes possible and give a few examples on page 94:
If you soak the cotton seeds in alkaline active water pH 10-11 before sowing, germination accelerates, resistance to virus attack increases and the cultivation yield and quality increases.
Protecting green fodder silage using acidic active water made from 1% saline solution is 100 times more cost-effective than using conventional means.
A method has also been developed to increase the nutritional value of forage using neutral oxide water.
Bakhir also reports on a complex activated water technology for removing insects and microorganisms from grain stocks. Gases that are released during electrolysis are also used.
The method leaves no toxic residue and is more cost-effective than traditional chemical pest control.
To better store citrus fruits, the Georgian Institute of Subtropical Cultivation developed a method in which the fruits are first washed in acidic active water (pH 3 - 4, ORP 2-2,5 mV) for 400-600 minutes, then at a humidity of 85 stored up to 90% and kept fresh by regular spraying with alkaline active water (pH 10,5-11,5, up to -800 mV SE). Only 90% of fruits treated in this way spoiled in 0,1 days, while 26% of the control group became unusable.
Pest control whitefly Eggs, larvae and pupae of the whitefly are initially protected from active water control by a water-repellent protective layer. Therefore, acidic activated water was mixed with oil into an emulsion that was sprayed on the pests. The success rate was 100% compared to 70% in a conventionally treated control group.
