The most simple way to get you surfactants into the material you are trying to sterilise is to use a ultrasonic cleaner for a minute before you start the process...this will break down surface tensin and let your sterilizing agent...with a surfactant...work into the surface of the plant material...prolonged use will damage the stomata and the material will die or be adversely affected It is good to see the enthusiasm of people on the list...but often re-inventing to wheel is a difficult road to travel.
