Here is another regarding clorine resistant pathogens:

I believe the catch is noted in the CascadeDesigns literature where Cyrpto is eliminated when the MSR MIOX is used in Conjunction with the MSR Filter.
In addition different types of clorine perform better than others on crypto.
Then there is all the legal mumbo jumbo to cover ass.
Regardless, if it came to needing potable water and using the MIOX to achieve that, Crytosporidium would be the least of my worries. |
My read is that it does kill Crypto.
The chart dealing with bio contaminants only has four lines, and the MIOX shows four "Yes" answers. Looks more like a misaligned data entry.
Additionally, this is from the footnote table: "The MSR MIOX Purifier requires 15 minutes for viruses and bacteria, 30 minutes for Giardia, and 4 hours for Cryptosporidium, and the quality of the source water is irrelevant. "
And: "The device has passed the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) Guide Standard and Protocol for Microbiological Purifiers, inactivating viruses, bacteria, and the protozoan cysts Giardia and Cryptosporidium in both clean and dirty waters. No pumping is required."
