COBRA EM-1® WATER TREATMENT

Cobra EM-1® water treatment is a live culture of beneficial micro organisms, effective in that the micro-organisms can change and improve the environment in which it is applied.

Cobra EM-1® water treatment is produced through a fermentation process and consists of water, molasses. lactic acid bacteria, yeast and phototrophic bacteria (purple non-sulphur bacteria). The liquid solution has a dark brown colour.

The potential of the naturally existing microbes and their co existence abilities were discovered and developed by Dr Teruo Higa, who is a professor of horticulture at the University of the Ryukyus in Okinawa, Japan.

Cobra EM-1® water treatment consists of non-pathogenic and non-toxic micro-organisms. The micro-organism specifically used is not genetically modified or engineered. Most of the micro-organisms are food grade. All microbes used for Cobra Em-1® water treatment production are classified as Biosaftey Level 1.Items that are Bio safety Level 1 are known NOT to cause disease in healthy human adults.All lactic bacteria and yeast used for the production are on U.S.Food and Drug Administrations GRADS list.Also, two of the Cobra EM-1® water treatment products are OMRI listed.


How does Cobra EM-1® Work?

Cobra EM-1® water treatment, works in two primary ways 1) by competitive exclusion and 2) by production of beneficial by-products that promote healthy environmental pathways. The three groups of micro-organisms within Cobra EM-1® water treatment work synergististically, creating a stable micro-ecology that produces a unique spectrum of organic acid, amino acids, antioxidants, and hormones. Cobra EM-1® water treatment is also facultative allowing Cobra EM-1® water treatment to maintain metabolic activity in anaerobic and aerobic environments.
