Chlorine Dioxide in the Dairy Biz

[Guest guest]

Just got in from my " raw milk run " . I'm asking my dairyman friend to see if

he can get me the best price on Sodium Chlorite. While explaining all about

it to him, he points to some jugs on a table. You ain't tellin me nuthin',

sez he. He's known all about it for many years. It is used, along with the

addition of skin conditioners, as a pre-milking teat wash and disinfectant.

One jug is 13% sodium chlorite, the other jug is Activator with 16% " organic

acid " . I should have opened that jug and smelled it to see if it was citric

or acetic, but I forgot to.

He has actually injected it into two cows to save their lives from severe

but localized infections that weren't responding to any other treatment.
