Again, that was obvious. If I asked how much sodium does one need. Of course, it will depend on diet, genetics, and such. What point is there to make? That there is a difference between species of bacteria!? Like I needed 2 indirect replies to tell me that...
I am fully aware there is more than one type of bacteria around the house. Would else would I say "common bacteria"!? 1 bacterium, 2+ bacteria.
I am not asking for any rare or super bacteria around the house or in saliva. It clearly states "common". Even if I stated something very specific, I highly doubt it that anyone here is able to provide a detailed explaination. But that is not what I am asking for.
I am using the plastic bottles as emergency water storage. I don't have money to buy expensive stuff like Lexan, obviously, not cheap.
I am looking for a cheap and common alternative to store a good supply of water.
If I asked the questions regarding bacteria living in the depths of the Artic ocean and one on the sink, obviously, there is some huge difference at what temperature it will die.
I am not asking for any specific species. It clearly states "common bacteria found around the house and fluid transfer" (mainly saliva).
Polyethylene Terephthalate
High Density Polyethylene
Vinyl
Low Density Polyethylene
Polypropylene
Polystyrene
This Lexan stuff doesn't sound like something I can commonly find as a recycleable product or get in large quantities for a cheap price.
I got some questions about common bacteria found around the house and fluid transfer.
1. What temperatures would bacteria die through heat? And what temperature would it die through cold? If it even dies from freezing, or would it revive after it defrosts?
2. I read that bacteria can't survive in things like honey, because the glucose content is so high. But can bacteria survive in or on salt? Lets say I licked a spoon, and just left it there in the table overnight. Assuming the bacteria is live and multiplying, then in the morning, shoved the spoon into a container filled with salt. Come back to check it later, would the bacteria live or die?
I would like to know which type of plastic is best for storing water. PETE, HDPE, V, LDPE, PP, or PS?
Mainly worried about the plastic chemicals leeching into the water over a long time of it. Yeah, yeah, glass is best, but it can break. And other safety or things I should be concerned about.
