Too late - it already exists

Chlorine dioxide as a disinfectant
(....this is NOT the same as bleach)
Chlorine dioxide can be used as oxidizer or disinfectant. It is a very strong oxidizer and it effectively kills pathogenic microorganisms such as fungi, bacteria and viruses. It also prevents and removes bio film. As a disinfectant and pesticide it is mainly used in liquid form. Chlorine dioxide can also be used against anthrax, because it is effective against spore-forming bacteria

Chlorine dioxide is a powerful disinfectant for bacteria and viruses. The byproduct, chlorite (ClO2-), is a weak bactericidal agent. In water chlorine dioxide is active as a biocide for at least 48 hours, its activity probaly outranges that of chlorine.
Chlorine dioxide prevents the growth of bacteria in the drinking water distribution network. It is also active against the formation of bio film in the distribution network. Bio film is usually hard to defeat. It forms a protective layer over pathogenic microorganisms. Most disinfectants cannot reach those protected pathogens. However, chlorine dioxide removes bio films and kills pathogenic microorganisms. Chlorine dioxide also prevent bio film formation, because it remains active in the system for a long time.

I use minute quantities medicinally - the ultimate detox

Have we not become too fastidious over "cleanliness". Seem to remember hearing as a child that we had to consume so much "dirt" before we died.

Exactly!

Yes, I recall that too. We also have to remember that some bacteria are good for us and when they are wiped out, then the dangerous opportunistic ones can move in and make us ill.

Those are the ones I kill when I use it medicinally.

Na Alan there's loads of us

I find it hard to beleive that people fall for these adverts, but there must be millions of them otherwise they wouldn't make them.
Cosmetics that start with an English word then end with a French one, what's that all about.
But I must admit i struggle getting a smooth shave so i'm looking forward to the first 15 blade razor ( joking ) all you budding advertisers out there.

cashman · 06-09-2010, 22:53

people have always fallen fer adverts alan, personally i call em numpties.

Alan Varrechia · 06-09-2010, 23:51

I'm with you on that one Cashman. I'm sure my Grandparents had a name for that kind of person.

I tend to watch most things on Sky + these days, 5 minutes of ads gone in 15 seconds result
