All answered NO. > I reckon I am that person. Sure am sorry you made such a big effort to find out wheather something I said was true or not. I could of saved you a lot of time if you would of asked me, or at least could of gave you a better direction to pursue your query. I don't believe h2o2 would protect milk from spoiling and I don't think anyone said that. It would just clean it up temporarily and would not replace refrigeration. Try Colloidal silver instead. bjs
Subject: 63FR34303 Hydrogen Peroxide; Exemption From the Requirement of a Tolerance; Correction From: [email protected] Date: 1998/06/24 Message-ID: <[email protected]> Newsgroups: gov.us.topic.agri.farms Article Segment 2 of 2 (Get Previous Segment) (Get All 2 Segments) In the Federal Register of May 6, 1998 (63 FR 24955) (FRL-5789-4), EPA, issued a final rule establishing an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of the antimicrobial pesticide hydrogen peroxide up to 120 ppm, in or on raw agricultural commodities, in processed commodities, when such residues result from the use of hydrogen peroxide as an antimicrobial agent on fruits, tree nuts, cereal grains, herbs, and spices. The word ``vegetables'' was omitted from the specific tolerance exemption language which is reproduced in five places of the final rule. This document corrects the final rule by inserting the word ``vegetables'' into each place that contains the specific tolerance exemption language. List of Subjects in 40 CFR Part 180 Environmental protection, Administrative practice and procedure, Agricultural commodities, Pesticides and pests, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements. Dated: June 10, 1998. Frank Sanders, Director, Antimicrobials Division, Office of Pesticide Programs. ************************************************************************************* A Progress Report - Revised Third Edition ECHO The Food & Drug Administration (FDA) in Federal Regulation Vol. 46 Number 6 Jan. 9, 1981, in effect gave the food industry a green light to use hydrogen peroxide in the "Aseptic" packaging process. The FDA has further ruled that hydrogen peroxide can be used in the processing of cheese and related cheese products (part 133), eggs and egg products (part 1 60), and as an antimicrobial agent in whey processing. They have also ruled it to be used in cleaning and healing mouth injuries. It is used in milk in 45 countries around the world. A good article on the "Aseptic" process for milk can be found in Trailer Life Nov. 1981 pp.51-52. ********************************************************************* -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
