MARCoNS: In Vitro Study

Objective: Using Biocidin LSF, the study will analyze MARCoNS in vitro and evaluate Biocidin’s efficacy addressing multi-species biofilms containing mold, yeast, Gram-negative bacteria and Gram-positive bacteria. 

Conclusion: The Biocidin LSF Broad Spectrum Liposomal Formula was effective in inhibiting the growth of gram positive bacteria, gram negative bacteria, yeast and mold. It was very effective against MARCoNS. This can be recommended in the Chronic Inflammatory Syndrome Protocol developed by Dr. Ritchie Shoemaker, if it can be provided in a nasal spray format.
