Great Idea

Hey!

So, I just started up another month of colistyn with E-flow and when I mentioned my concerns of buying gallons of sterile water and the pain in the butt it is to boil it, etc. and have to POUR and use so much of it to rinse my treatment parts, the lady gave me a brilliant idea (which I now use and LOVE!)

She said when rinsing and using sterile water, put it in a spray bottle and just saturate the parts that way! Brilliant! It uses FAR less water and is sooo easy! I do it now every time. I suppose you could also use this for nebs that you have to rinse with sterile water after dishwasing or something, but I haven't done that as I usually boil all my nebs after each treatment.

Anyway just thought I'd pass along the hint! <img src="i/expressions/light.gif" border="0">
