Our Hydrosols are tested every 90 days for fungal and microbial
contamination at:-

1. Ohio EPA Water Approval No. 890
2. USDA Accreditation Number 3983
The last test was conducted on 09 July 2010. The results were that they are MORE PURE than the acceptable standard for drinking water. The standard for drinking water is a Plate Count of bacteria as high as 500 per 100 ml of pure water...the highest plate count we have on any of our Hydrosols is 8... this is FAR MORE PURE than even bottled drinking water.
Specifically, our test results were as follows .. keep in mind the following three points:
1. When a Hydrosol leaves the still it will be sterile. Only improper handling or storage ..or adulteration with water that was not distilled can contaminate a Hydrosol.
2. The Ohio State standard for bottled drinking water is Plate Count of bacteria no higher than 500 parts per million in 100 ml of pure water.
3. All of the Hydrosols below .. except the Sandalwood .. tested as being More Pure than bottled drinking water.
| Sample | total plate count | total coliform | yeast count | mold count |
| Peppermint | 26 | <1 | <1 | <1 |
| Rosemary | Out of Stock | |||
| Lavender | 104 | <1 | <1 | <1 |
| Melissa | Out of Stock | |||
| Rose | 260 | <1 | <1 | <1 |
| Witch Hazel | 20 | <1 | <1 | <1 |
< means Less than 1
We also tested a Sandalwood Hydrosol .. the results were:| Sandalwood | 22,000,000 | <1 | <1 | 1 |
We do not have Neroli Hydrosol now because the last three samples we tested were not acceptable. If you wish to be on our Back Order list for Neroli Hydrosol .. please advise .. then if/when I find one that is acceptable, I will notify you.
Hydrosols are shipped in Food Industry Approved plastic jugs.....unless a buyer wants glass. We do this for safety as well as to reduce shipping costs to buyers.
For long term storage, Hydrosols should be transferred to sterile
glass containers with sterile caps. To avoid contamination we should NOT touch
bottle rims, or inside bottle caps with fingers, or pour unused hydrosols back
into container. We should avoid direct sunlight and avoid extreme heat for long
periods of
time.
Refrigeration can assist in extending shelf life of hydrosols.
