Indigo — Development
The development of Indigo was inspired by the
work of Dr. Joe C. Spruill (1935 – 1983), a biochemist
and microbial researcher. Dr. Spruill is best
known for helping develop the stabilization process
for Aloe Vera, allowing it to be used in the cosmetic
and beverage industry. Dr. Spruill was also heavily
involved in the study of symbiotic microorganisms
in human health and agriculture.
As a result of his research, Dr. Spruill was able to isolate and stabilize a broad spectrum
of beneficial microbes. He developed a sophisticated culturing process which
produced a consistent, effective biological growth activator that contained no detectable
living organisms in its concentrated form. However, when diluted with water
and applied to aerobic or anaerobic environments, it would accelerate microbial activity and enhance the breakdown of organic and inorganic deposits.
His findings, though improved from their original form, have been instrumental in the development of Indigo. Derived from over 30 strains of microbes (including aerobic and anaerobic), Indigo is effective in both oxygen rich and oxygen deprived environments. Indigo contains no detectable living microorganisms; however, when applied to a medium containing a food source, populations of healthy microbes explode as much as 2000% within the first 3-5 days resulting in accelerated breakdown and decomposition of organic and some inorganic compounds in soil and organic waste.
