From http://www.grayfieldoptical.com/faq.html "Although the exact working principle is a trade secret, ..." After this, there is some hand-waving markteting talk. I can't really comment on the images of those test slides and diatomes on the web page, but from the images of cells they show, I am not impressed. Doesn't look like 100 nm resolution to me. see Grayfield homepage or http://www.mikroskop-olbrich.de/ergonom_4000.html There is also a movie at http://video.google.de/videoplay?docid=839679424840450517# Microscopy starts at ~4:10. This movie apparently also explains the real cause of cancer, I didn't watch all of it, though, it's 48 minutes. More videos at http://www.grayfieldoptical.com/online_videos.html Other than that, the "Institut f. Interdisziplinäre Grundlagenforschung Kurt Olbrich" can be googled as a reference for confirming the effect of various "water vitalising" procedures on German web pages. http://www.boehm-egger.de/produkte_prufungen.htm http://www.theta-reiki.de/trinkwasser/die-loesung/ http://www.aquavitera.de/wasserbelebung-pejosan-wasservitalisierung-schauberger-wasserwirbler-aquavitera-wasserveredler/wasserveredler-pejosan-petit-.119.155.de.html The subject of this thread seems to be quite fitting, in retrospect.
