Elimi-NP in a transparent dosing container?

[nathanielt]

@Hans-Werner I’d like to use an old BRS 2-part doser (1.1 ml / min) to dose Elimi-NP. Will the product degrade from ambient light or air in a typical dosing container? How quickly? Thanks in advance.

That should be fine. An organic carbon dosing solution that is concentrated enough to prevent bacterial growth will also prevent algae growth, which would be the only concern in such a container exposed to ambient light.

Thank you!

Piggybacking on this question - can this autodosed diluted? For example in a 1:5 ratio elimi NP to RODI?

I only need 2ml to max 5ml daily and the product is a bit thick, my concern is clogging the tubing?

Would this impact the products effectiveness?

Dilute it with RO/DI.

My concern is bacterial growth on storage once diluted.

Watch for cloudiness arising in the solution or on the container sides.
