Keeping wild spores alive with Menthol Decontamination when printing?
    #21862247 - 06/27/15 12:22 AM (8 years, 7 months ago)

it says on wikipedia that "Menthol is widely used in dental care as a topical antibacterial agent, effective against several types of streptococci and lactobacilli.[5]"

Does Menthol destroy spores too? Will treating a cap with Menthol or peppermint oil while printing ensure prints free from contamination and be safe for the spores?

no, as soon as you expose them to a non sterile environment they will become instantly contaminated.

Just print them on foil and let them dry out.  Fresh spores are resilient and can handle their own, the bacteria will eventually die.
