future reference. dee

We have to go through this every year or so.
1. CS must have mobility to come in contact with pathogens and kill
them. If there is no contact, there is no action.
2. CS will therefore have very limited killing power in any medium
which is solid, or semisolid. This includes such things as gelatin
and a healthy stool.
3. CS kills both aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms, there
generally are no Good vs Bad microorganisms, only misplaced
organisms. IE. yeast in your bread or beer is good, in your
intestines, vagina or blood stream is bad. Likewise E coli is good
in your intestines, but bad in your blood or vagina. When people
say that CS does not kill good bacteria because it generally does
not wipe out the good flora in the intestines, they are mistaken, it
is not because the bacteria are good and CS somehow has this magical
capability to tell if the bacteria is good or bad in that
environment, but rather the medium is semisolid so the CS has no
mobility.
