What is PIP?
-
Chrisal PIP is a major break-through, new generation of cleaning products which uses microbiological cleaning with Probiotics rather than conventional cleaning which uses chemicals and disinfectants.
Disinfectants kill both the good bacteria and the bad bacteria, which upsets the natural protective balance of nature - and with the overuse of disinfectants and antibiotics we all have seen a huge increase of resistance among pathogenic (harmful) bacteria.
Using Chrisal PIP to clean with, this introduces a safe, stable and healthy microbial community that lowers the risk of problems with contamination, pathogens and odours.

How do Chrisal PIP probiotics work?
-
Conventional cleaning methods use chemicals that leave a residue, and they don’t physically remove contamination at the microscopic level where dirt and unwanted ‘germs’ hide. They also do not penetrate the biofilm layers formed by bacteria to protect themselves. This biofilm needs to be removed for optimal cleaning and to protect your health.
Some of the key innovative aspects of Chrisal’s PIP Products are that PIP’s probiotics act like millions of tiny workers removing the contaminations and dirt at the very microscopic level that you normally can never reach. These contaminations are simply converted to water and CO2, the same as you breathe out – and these beneficial little workers continue to work for up to days at a time after each cleaning to keep eating away the biofilm put down by pathogens and other harmful (bad) germs.
KEEPS ON WORKING Another key benefit is that immediately while cleaning the unwanted dirt and contaminations, Chrisal provides a layer of beneficial (good) bacillus to cover all the treated surfaces to continue to both protect you and to keep cleaning long after you wiped the area. These PIP helpful bacteria will occupy the available space, food and water, thereby reducing the risks associated with dirt, mold, odour causing contaminations, pathogenic bacteria and dust mites and their waste. The graphic demonstrates how Chrisal PIP removes the biofilm that protects contaminants and then controls the area treated.

Where can we use PIP?
-
Wherever cleaning takes place! PIP products are applicable to all places where hygiene is of great importance. Hospitals & Healthcare facilities (hospitals, rest homes, medical clinics…), Residential & Commercial facilities (hospitality and accommodation, schools, offices/workplaces, homes…), Farming & Animal housing (horses, cows, pigs, chickens, goats, sheep…). PIP products are perfectly safe and will strongly improve hygiene to humans and animals.
All your life you have been part of an arms race between humans and bacteria. You use chemicals in soaps and disinfectants in your fight, But, even with all of today’s technology, we still find ourselves endlessly battling between trying to protect ourselves and using dangerous chemicals and products that harm us, our children, animals and the environment.

How serious is this?
-
The world of infectious diseases is frightening. And, that is an understatement. Here's a small parade of horrors, all fairly recent findings:
Hepatitis from green onions at Chi Chi's (600 people)
Pregnant Women Losing all four limbs from infection. Claudia's infection was contracted in a hospital. Several stories like this exist of pregnant women waking up from almost dying from infection, only to find their four limbs amputated.
Killer in the Locker Room: Healthy men getting MRSA from towels, touching, etc. Problem with sweat, spit and blood on artificial turf in the NFL, due to cuts and micro-abrasions they receive during play. The NFL is proud they "only" have 30+ cases, down from 60+.
The cost of fighting hospital - acquired infections (HAI) was $8.1B, and killed 48,000 Americans last year. Those antibiotic solutions must be making those drug manufacturers serious money--even if they don't always work.
Solutions to superbugs appear to be nowhere in sight. Recently, the medical industry has even returned to former remedies--even those once considered too toxic.
Here's a recent book on the problem, just came out, on MRSA. There are book reviews on it.
The book "Superbug: The Fatal Menace of MRSA", written by Maryn McKenna discusses the dangers of morphing "superbugs" like MRSA. Book reviews are also available by clicking here".

What is Biofilm?
-
“Germs” have a secret weapon - their ability to rapidly form "biofilms" – a protective matrix, a cover, like a housing, in a sense) in which large colonies of microbes are embedded. Biofilms are not just a place to hide dirt, viruses, pathogens and other contaminants, but it is a slimy matrix that is one of the key weapons micro-organisms use to defeat the immune system, antibiotic drugs and other threats.
When bacteria find themselves on a new surface, within a few hours a colony can be created grown significantly very rapidly - and this bacteria colony builds a slimy protective layer, the biofilm, which protects the colony against harmful environmental influences. That biofilm is produced by the bacteria from proteins and multiple sugars and it protects the colony UV light, poisonous substances such as disinfectants, cleaners, antibiotics and against dehydration.
This biofilm not only creates a “Home” for the colony also a vital climate. You see biofilm all the time and don’t realize it. When much thicker, you may see it as a stain or darkening on a wall or floor and it is what makes all the grout in your house darker. It is on all surfaces from the railing on your stairs, hiding in the sides of your sink to the insides of your pipes and can lead to outbreaks of diseases. For a Wikipedia definition click here .

The Bottom Line About You and Biofilm.
-
The primary source for bacterial or viral disease transmission is by surface to hand or hand to hand contact.
Viruses are relatively short-lived organisms not capable of living away from it’s host. When a virus lands on a surface without a host or a support system, it will die within hours.
A bacterium landing on the surface will carry a protective coating that will provide a longer life cycle then a virus, but after a while, it will die too.
So viruses and bacteria would not pose a big problem if they were not protected by something – so normally you would think that if you don’t touch a surface close to a sick person for at least a couple of hours after they coughed or sneezed, the pathogens will die.
If however, the pathogens land on a bio-film, they can stay alive and virulent for a long, long time. So, it becomes clear now that the real threat is the bio-film, not just the pathogens!
Therefore, wouldn’t it make sense to get rid of the bio-film rather than continuing warfare against bacteria in which we are still winning battles, but obviously losing the war?
Normal cleaning with a disinfectant will do very little damage to a biofilm or the pathogens living inside of it. Even a strong caustic chlorine can not totally remove it. Only nature holds the key to totally break down a bio-film.
Recent research indicates that no cleaner, no disinfectant, no combination of heat and cleaners – NO METHOD SHORT OF HOSPITAL AUTOCLAVING – will totally destroy a Bio Film.
Until Now with Chrisal PIP!
Surfaces that have been cleaned and colonized the probiotic way, with Chrisal’s PIP, will remove the bio-film and establish an environment that will not be hospitable to viral or bacterial colonization – and PIP will do so in the most “GREEN” of environments.

Do I keep disinfecting when I use Chrisal products?
-
No, not for all normal cleaning. In specialized medical circumstances where complete sterilization is still required, then use a disinfectant, but only before using Chrisal PIP, not after. Once you use a disinfectant and the surface is dry, then you can treat the area with PIP.
