The summaries below outline independent laboratory evaluations conducted under controlled conditions. Testing examined LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ both on their own and in combination with filtration systems, depending on the study design.
These summaries are provided for transparency and informational purposes only and are not intended as standalone performance claims. Results may vary depending on water composition, dosage, contact time, and whether filtration is used.
Fluoride — Laboratory Evaluation
Challenge water containing fluoride at a concentration of 8 mg/L was prepared using sodium fluoride. LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ were added at concentrations ranging from 1 mL to 4 mL per litre. Samples were analysed approximately 15 minutes after treatment using EPA Method 340.2.
Under these specific laboratory conditions, fluoride concentrations were reported below the method detection limit following treatment.
These observations relate to controlled laboratory testing and are not intended to represent typical results or standalone water treatment performance.
Hexavalent Chromium — Laboratory Evaluation
A solution was prepared by diluting LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ in deionised water and spiking the solution with hexavalent chromium at a concentration of 75 µg/L.
Laboratory analysis indicated a change in chromium speciation under the test conditions, with hexavalent chromium reported as trivalent chromium remaining in solution.
Chlorine — Laboratory Evaluation
LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ were evaluated following the NSF Standard 42 protocol for chlorine reduction. Challenge water containing free chlorine at 2.08 ppm was treated with LifeFX at a concentration of 1 mL per litre.
Under these laboratory conditions, free chlorine levels were reported below the detection limit when analysed using EPA Method 330.5.
Antibacterial — Laboratory Evaluation
Laboratory testing examined bacterial presence in water samples under controlled conditions to evaluate how LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ behaved during testing.
In this evaluation, water samples were prepared containing different types of coliform bacteria. Untreated control samples and samples treated with LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ at a defined laboratory ratio were analysed using the m-ColiBlue-24 test method.
Under these specific laboratory conditions, coliform bacteria were detected in the control samples but were not detected in the treated samples at the time of analysis.
These observations reflect controlled laboratory testing only and do not indicate that LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ function as an antibacterial agent, disinfectant, or standalone water treatment product in consumer use.
EZ / Structured Water — Research Context
LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ were evaluated using ultraviolet and visible light absorption analysis and compared with tap water and ultrapure water.
The mineral solution demonstrated higher absorption within the ultraviolet range (190–380 nm) and low absorption within the visible range (380–750 nm). The observed ultraviolet absorption profile has been discussed in the context of structured or interfacial water research, including work referenced by Dr. Gerald Pollack.
Chloramine — Laboratory Evaluation
Challenge water containing chloramine at a concentration of 2.75 mg/L was treated with LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ at 2 mL per litre. Samples were analysed at multiple time points up to 48 hours using Standard Method 4500-Cl-G.
Under these laboratory conditions, chloramine concentrations were reported below the detection limit after extended contact time.
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) — LifeFX Used with Filtration
Water solutions containing volatile organic compounds at a concentration of 20 µg/L were treated with LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ at concentrations of 1 mL and 2 mL per litre. Following a 48-hour period in open containers, samples were filtered using the LifeFX filtration system prior to analysis.
Under these combined treatment and filtration conditions, VOC concentrations were reported below the analytical method detection limits.
Chemical Reduction Testing — LifeFX Used with Filtration
Multiple batches of challenge water containing mixtures of pesticides, pharmaceuticals, herbicides, fungicides, and other organic compounds were treated with LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ and subsequently filtered through the LifeFX filtration system.
Analyses were conducted using approved EPA methods where applicable. Observed reduction percentages for individual compounds were documented within the laboratory reports under these combined treatment and filtration conditions.
Microbiological Testing — LifeFX Used with Filtration
Tap water spiked with bacteria, viruses, and cysts was treated with LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ for 24 hours and then filtered using the LifeFX filtration system. Samples were analysed using Standard Methods for the Examination of Water.
Under these laboratory conditions, reductions in microbial indicators were reported when LifeFX was used as part of a combined treatment and filtration setup.
These observations do not indicate that LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ function as a disinfectant, antibacterial agent, or certified microbiological treatment product.
Cryptosporidium parvum — LifeFX Used with Filtration
Challenge water containing Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts was treated with LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ and filtered using the LifeFX filtration system.
Laboratory analysis reported reductions in oocyst presence under these combined conditions.
These observations do not indicate that LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ function as a disinfectant, antibacterial agent, or certified microbiological treatment product.
MCHM — LifeFX Used with Filtration
Tap water spiked with 4-Methyl-1-cyclohexanemethanol (MCHM) was treated with LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ and filtered through 0.45-micron filter paper at multiple time intervals.
Under these laboratory conditions, reductions in MCHM concentration were reported following treatment and filtration.
Arsenic — LifeFX Used with Filtration
Challenge water containing arsenic (III) was treated with LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ and filtered using the LifeFX ceramic filtration system. Samples were analysed after 24 and 48 hours.
Laboratory analysis reported decreased arsenic concentrations under these combined treatment and filtration conditions.
Lead — LifeFX Used with Filtration
Water containing lead at 150 µg/L was treated with LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ and filtered through the LifeFX ceramic filtration system.
Under laboratory conditions, lead concentrations were reported as non-detectable following treatment and filtration.
Mercury — LifeFX Used with Filtration
Challenge water containing mercury at 6 µg/L was treated with LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ and filtered using the LifeFX ceramic filtration system.
Laboratory testing reported mercury concentrations below detection limits under these combined conditions.
Glyphosate — LifeFX Used with Filtration
Tap water spiked with glyphosate at 800 µg/L was treated with LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ and filtered through the LifeFX ceramic gravity filter after defined contact times.
Under laboratory conditions, glyphosate reduction was reported following treatment and filtration using EPA Method 547.
Laboratory testing described above reflects specific research conditions and does not represent typical consumer use.
LifeFX Living Water Droplets™ are not marketed as a standalone water filter, disinfectant, or certified water treatment device.
