Is a mushroom soaked with isopropyl alcohol safe to consume once dried?

Hi all,

I just got done cloning a huge, picture-perfect fruit.

In order to minimize contamination, I sprayed and wiped down the entire outside of the fruitbody with 70% isopropyl alcohol before bringing it into my SAB. Afterwards, I ran the mushroom briefly under my kitchen sink to hopefully wash off excess alcohol, then tried my best to dry it off with a paper towel.

The alcohol was on the fruit for 20+ minutes, so I assume a lot of it was probably absorbed into the fruitbody itself... will the fruit still be edible once dried in a dehydrator, or does a high consecration of rubbing alcohol leave behind anything poisonous? Also, does isopropyl alcohol degrade psilocybin at all?

You shouldn't ingest anything that's been soaked with rubbing alcohol. The inner parts of the mushroom will be clean for cloning and you're either way gonna want to make at least one transfer away from the initial tissue sample plate so your clone culture will be clean in the end anyway, no need to disinfect the fruit beforehand :thumbup:

No iso should be left after dehydrating. Isopropanol comes pure and is very stable and doesn't decompose easily, so no worries of it leaving anything behind.

As far as it degrading the active compounds, I don't think it does. Only one way to find out, I suppose. But I am pretty sure potency won't be affected much, by what you described

Go ahead and eat it :thumbup:
