Once again, I can only state what happens in my little humid corner of the world. Xylitol mixed into CS, made from a Silverpuppy, all decanted into a plastic nasal spray bottle, will grow an obvious and healthy black mold culture in two weeks. It actually shows a little after a week. In order for it to be that corrupted I assume the mixture to be contaminated at 3 days. After three days it smells funny up my nose.
I still use it if I need to but discard bottle and all on the third day. It's still the best thing I've ever seen for washing out the sinuses. 1/4 teaspoon xylitol to 2 ounces CS. I have some of Frank Key's product that I want to try and see how it fares like this. I've got to get busy and do that experiment. I guess I may as well get off my duff right now and do it.

Jim As I understand it Jim, it makes the mucous membranes too slippery for the bacteria etc. to cling on, and they get washed away. Also, as I understand it, its structure is different to sugar, and so would not feed things the same way that sugar might. Does anyone know of any in vitro experiments with xylitol and pathogenic organisms? Rowena -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
