You're not going to get the whole technical info thing on the formulation of their products, their formulations are proprietary. I can understand that, most companies protect their research, exact formulas and production methods from the prying eyes of their competitors.
I did have a back and forth e-mail conversation with an ABS representative last month and even though the ingredient list on the labels lists the same 4 bacterial strains and 4 Myco strains I was assured that that wasn't the whole picture. Each formulation has up to 18 different strains of beneficial bacteria alone and there are differences between the formulations based on the target plant group. Due to certain regulatory requirements they have to disclose enough information on the product labels to validate the product works as designed but naturally they are not required to give away the whole recipe.
