Thank you, Terry, for your answer.

Some additional thoughts arise in my  mind.

When normal "food quality" plastic containers are new, they have a typical "plastic solvent" odor AND flavour, which is more or less toxic depending on the type of plastic used, and contents do not adhere to them easily. As they are "recycled" they gradually lose the "plastic odor", tend to get more brittle and contents gradually adhere more to them.

The in vitro tests that you refer to only take into consideration a high quality plastic (Falcon 5 ml polypropylene plastic test tubes) and it only refers to the adsorption of silver to glass, without taking into consideration different toxic substances from different types of plastic containers.

I have my doubts that soda pop plastic bottles could be the type of "high quality plastic container"
that is recommended for CS storing by the performers of the test.

The glass of which containers are made can be of many different qualities. A cheap drinking glass gets residues adhered to it easily, but a good quality cristal cup does not. (Have you noticed the difference when they are washed and drained?)

So, I wonder what is the experience (and opinion), concerning containers, of other list members that have been making, using and storing CS for years?

In what type of containers do commercial makers of CS sell it?

Best regards,

Carlos

It's actually better to store CS in soda pop bottles
(or that type of plasic). If CS is stored in glass,
the silver tends to adhere to the glass sides,
detracting from the silver in the liquid.
