Why it Works?
GreenFlash Technologies (GFT) produces Formula 444, which, with
small differences, is produced as OdorOut-444 (OO-444),
SkunkOut-444 and KennelFresh-444 (KF-444). Odors are caused by
the discharge from an organic source, the bacterial breakdown of the
discharge and the compounds released in the process. The 444 products
attack the source of the odor (or stain) to breakup and eliminate all
organic-based odor (and stain) molecules and certain chemical odor
compounds (such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia). The technology
employed is microbial, that is, the use of high-concentration specially
blended bacteria spores to penetrate the odor-causing molecule, breaking
it down to its elemental form, binding the non-organic components and
metabolizing the central carbon atoms of the organic compounds. These
bacteria also compete with the odor causing bacteria and eliminate the
odorous bacteria's food source.
Enzymes are protein-based chemicals whose only function is to accelerate other chemical reactions.
Enzymes are a byproduct of normal microbial (bacterial) metabolism. They are much cheaper to
"harvest" than bacteria for commercial sale to end-users. Enzymes are not living organisms and thus
do not require nutrients, water and oxygen to operate. They can be produced in less than sterile
conditions; and can be stored as any chemical compound. That's why so many products are
enzyme-based. They're much cheaper to produce than microbial-based products; but they do not
metabolize the odor or stain sources.
The bacteria in GFT's odor products similarly produce enzymes that break down the targeted organic contaminants so the bacteria can then more easily metabolize (digest) them and thus provide the nutrients to the bacteria so they can continue to function as created. OdorOur-444, SkunkOut-444 and KennelFresh-444 have very high microbial counts and a wide variety of Bacillus bacteria spores. Our microbials do produce enzymes as they begin to metabolize the contaminants in their environment; but these enzymes, after they break down their food source to a more readily digestible form, are ingested by the microbials together with the modified food source. Consequently, enzymes no longer remain in the treatment area following the odor (stain) elimination process

Today the largest selling "odor" products are either air fresheners or air disinfectants. These products
typically mask the odors with various fragrances and / or employ alcohols or similar agents to eliminate
some microorganisms, which at best, is only one component of the odor. In many cases the odors
return shortly after the application. None of these products attack serious odors or stains such as
those from bathrooms, pets, cigarette smoke, kitchens, etc. .
There are a number of "odor" companies using enzymes or other chemicals to attack specific (e.g.,
pet) odors & stains, but these are generally limited in application to odor molecules for which they
are specifically designed and often do not work at all on others. None of these can be considered as
truly natural, as the chemical enzymes employed remain in the treated area following the odor
removal process.
All bacteria produce enzymes as part of their normal metabolic processes. Our bodies also produce enzymes as part of their normal metabolic processes. For example, we produce amylopsin, steapsin, pepsin and rennin in our digestive tracts to initially break down chewed food that has been deposited in our stomach. These enzymes break down the various food groups into more easily absorbed compounds that are taken into the body through the small intestines for nutrient sources for our various physiological functions.

All bacteria employed in OO-444 are commonly found Bacillus spores and none are genetically
altered. The bacteria blend provides an aggressive combination of bacteria that will quickly search
out many different odors and stain sources and completely eliminate them by chemical breakdown
and metabolic processes. All products are non-toxic, natural, biodegradable, hypo-allergenic and
safe around children, pets and marine life. Formula 444 contains no alcohols, solvents, or
phosphates and only biodegradable surfactants at a neutral pH.
