1. Prepare solutions: Create a 0.5% detergent solution by mixing detergent with distilled water.  The cleaners tested include MS LLD, Arm & Hammer High Efficiency Laundry Detergent, and Tide High Efficiency Laundry Detergent
2. Fill test tubes: Pour 1 ml of the solution into a test tube.
3. Add water: Add 5 ml of distilled water to each test tube.
4. Shake: Seal the test tube and shake it 10 times to create foam.
5. Measure foam height: Measure the amount of foam generated in ml. 
6. Time:  Record the time it takes for the foam to fully dissipate (5 minutes interval)

Chemtrax Option 1: 4.5ml of foam generated.  The foam did not dissipate within 5 minutes.

Chemtrax Option 2: 2ml of foam generated.  The foam dissipated in 1 minute and 51 seconds.

Arm and Hammer HE: 3ml of foam generated.  Foam did not dissipate within 5 minutes.

Tide HE: 2ml of foam generated.  Foam did not dissipate within 5 minutes.  

The Chemtrax Option 2 formulation matched the amount of foam generated by the Tide HE detergent and exhibited less foam stability than the Tide HE detergent.  The Chemtrax Option 2 formulation will likely be successful with use in a high efficiency washing machine.
