Vee-Go Agri Char Tests Results

Vee-Go Energy Aflatoxin Tests on Rivera Soy Ash

On September 11, I received a long awaited initial report on the viability of USSE's soy ash as a binding agent for various aflatoxins that are increasingly contaminating agricultural soils around the globe. The tests were conducted under laboratory conditions at a respected institution. While I will leave it up to John Rivera to release the information as he sees fit, I will reveal this much in response to a noted basher on this board who denigrated Vee-Go and this testing effort.

The studies were conducted with four toxins B1,B2,G1,G2 in 5 part per billion concentrations in a buffer(soil) quantity of 10 milliliters. Each toxin was exposed to three concentrations of soyash: 10mg, 30mg, and 50mg.

It was found that the soyash effectively binds to(deactivates), all four toxins. The binding efficiencies, i.e. the percentage of entire toxin sample that was deactivated with each treatment, varies depending on the particular toxin as well as with the dosage of soyash used.

The binding efficiencies as well as required soyash quantities in pounds per acre per inch of topsoil depth were:

B1: 68.0% to 83.5% per application of 224 to 1120 pounds/acre/inch.
B2: 46.6% to 81.1% per application of 224 to 1120 pounds/acre/inch.
G1: 50.6% to 66.9% per application of 224 to 1120 pounds/acre/inch.
G2: 25.7% to 62.3% per application of 224 to 1120 pounds/acre/inch.

Multiple treatments would bind with the same efficiencies to any toxins left behind by prior treatments. Thus two treatments to B1 at 1120 pounds per acre would bind to 97.3% of toxins.

These tests are very positive and encouraging but they are just the first test. One inning is not a ball game, so further tests will be required, and are being discussed.
