Bleach is inactivated by the presence of organic matter, e.g. blood. Bleach has a very strong odor and the mixing of chlorine and ammonia containing cleaning agents emits a highly toxic gas. Concentrations of bleach stronger than 1:100 are corrosive to metals. Bleach has a short efficacy life in liquid form and is sensitive to heat and sunlight.

Bleach is far a more powerful anti-microbial agent than alcohol. Drug treatment clinics regularly advise addicts to immerse their syringes in a thinned down bleach solution. However, they are starting to move away from this because the bleach kits often don't kill Hepatitis, and sometimes don't even kill the relatively fragile AIDS virus.

Sodium Hypochlorite is a chlorine compound. Sodium hypochlorite is commercially produced by the electrolyses of Sodium Chloride solution

Yes, however, I wouldn't advise ingestion. It can be dangerous to ingest just as your normal shampoo is, or toothpaste, or 100 gallons of soda pop. But overall it is pretty safe except for the severe diarrhea accompanied by ingestion.

Our sodium hypochlorite is 12% by weight. This is the same as 15% by volume. The material contains 150 grams of available chlorine per liter. Sodium hypochlorite is available packaged in one, five, and fifty-five gallon packages. Bulk deliveries are usually from fifty gallons to full truckloads of 5000 gallons.

Because sodium hypochlorite degrades with age and exposure to both heat and light, we recommend no more than a one month supply for summer use. In cooler months, quantities may be increased to two or three months supply.

Our sodium hypochlorite is approved by Underwriters Laboratories to the NSF 60 specification. The product also meets or exceeds the AWWA specification for sodium hypochlorite. It is also registered with the United States EPA, The NJDEP and NYS Department of Environmental Conservation, and the USDA.

No, our tea bags are oxygen bleached rather than chlorine bleached. Chlorine bleaching of paper, including tea bags and coffee filters, creates a dioxin chemical residue in the paper and waste water from the paper mill. Dioxin is a known potent carcinogen that we want to avoid.

Fem is actually an Indian brand, so if you live in India it should be available at any general store. If not, you would be able to find it at an Indian store. However, Jolen is an international brand and you could use that instead of Fem. Hi, I wanted to know if using sunscreen reduces the taning process. In the summer my kids are outside all the time. They get very tanned during summer months.

Each habitat includes a mail-in coupon to be sent directly to Uncle Milton, which entitles you to a shipment of livestock for just the shipping and handling fee. You can call Uncle Milton direct or mail in the coupon. The cheapest method for you is to mail in the coupon because you will get their coupon discounted rate (each coupon has a code number indicating the discount). A phone call negates any coupon discount.

According to Chemistry International Vol 23, No.6 November 2001 - "Heavy Metals" - A Meaningless Term Over the past two decades, the term "heavy metals" has been used increasingly in various publications and in legislation related to chemical hazards and the safe use of chemicals. It is often used as a group name for metals and semimetals (metalloids) that have been associated with contamination and potential toxicity or ecotoxicity.

A.- Aspirin tablets are 20 times more toxic than the equivalent amount of Laetrile. Laetrile is even less toxic than sugar. But like aspirin or sugar, you can't take 20 tablets or eat 1/2 lb. at one time. It would make you quite sick, probably requiring a stomach pump.

The TSCA (15 U.S.C. s/s 2601 et seq.), enacted by Congress in 1976, gives the Environmental Protection Agency the ability to track industrial chemicals currently produced or imported into the United States. The EPA screens these chemicals and can require reporting, testing or banning of those that may pose an environmental or human-health hazard.

A substance is toxic if sufficient exposure can cause death. For example, 1000 parts per million (ppm) CO concentration will cause unconsciousness after 1 hour.

No, the lithium battery does not require special handling or disposal, but we request that you return old units to us for recycling. Contact Us to return old KOMeter? units.

Kombucha Tea can become toxic if it becomes contaminated by pathogenic moulds or bacteria, such as C. botulism. However, these organisms will not grow in an acidic medium below pH 4.
