Will this product remove biofilm?

For me, it got the slimy stuff out of my unseen pipes. Probably doesn't help all biofilm situations. A quick google just became a series of ads.

That is a good question. I will have to look that up. I actually bought this to whiten my teeth. You open the capsule and brush with the charcoal for five minutes. It does work but it is temporary.

Not that I know of. It clears fin rot perfectly. Sores, too. I believe Jungle Buddies have ICH clear, but it might kill your beneficial bacteria so read the instructions CAREFULLY. Amazon sells Jungle Tank Buddies ICH Clear, too. Here is a link: http://www.amazon.com/Jungle-TB625W-Buddies-Tablets-8-Count/dp/B0002561OM/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top?ie=UTF8

I don't believe it will! I believe it is a taste and sediment filter only! As far as I know the filtration of microbes or bacteria is beyond this filters capability!

Yes, I believe so. It is very powerful. However, you need to make sure the materials are all dried up completely. You can also change the filter more frequently (maybe once in two or three months) to make sure bacteria would not colonize inside.

Probably, though it will slow down the cleansing process. Check with your doctor or naturopath.

As far as I know, this will work on all water-borne pathogens. I used it to purify water that I got out o a swamp in Georgia.

The Protec I use just says Antimicrobially treated helps prevent the growth and migration of mold, algae and bacteria on the filter. No number on it.

Not sure if the all purpose cleaner kills germs. We have found a large selection of Method cleaners at Target for a very reasonable price.

Yes call in the professionals - Bio-clean works great in drains but this is entirely different issue.

Sawyer's claim for the filter is that it removes 99.99999% of all harmful bacteria and 99.9999% of protozoa. Viruses are not included nor are other impurities mentioned. I have written to Sawyer to ask about tannin and brackish water and will reply again once I receive a return message. I'm not sure when that will be, but hope it will be soon.Keri-LynnFour Seasons Survival

I really don't think it does. If you read the description, it says: *Removes Chlorine, Chloramines, VOCs, and Pesticides/Herbicides. My concern was the chlorine since I use it on my compost - chlorine kills the good bacteris. That said, all the other stuff in city water will probably kill me sooner or later! I hope this was at least somewhat helpful. Also, I mentioned in an earlier post, look at both ends before putting it on the hose, the one that does not have the screen should be tipped up when you remove it from the hose after use because the carbon will run out.

No it is not, it physically removes particles, protozoa, and bacteria down to 0.3 microns in size, including giardia, salmonella, cryptosporidia and others. I love this filter.

I've done a ton of research. This seems to be a good maintenance cleaner. Oh Yuk seems to be the only one really geared towards the harmful biofilm deposited on dormant pipes. (No, I am do not work for Oh Yuk. Just my own research. Hoping this helps someone out there :-) )

Yes it will remove the whitish buildup. From my experience the product is intended to be used often to avoid the build up so you may need to apply a couple of times if this has not been done.

No, some dentist haveused charcoal as a cleaner for years. Only use a couple times a week. Kills bad breath instantly.
