Hello everyone,

I posted this at Unyquity's forum because she deals with many bottles and knows much, but I'm also posting it here. I appreciate any answers.

I was given some Lugol's the other day, but the guy put it in an amber colored PLASTIC dropper bottle (The original bottle is a 3 pint glass bottle. He gave me two ounces from that glass bottle.) The bottle has a "PP" on the bottom near a triangle; I'm guessing it means "polypropylene".

I looked around town the next day (yesterday) and found 3 little glass amber dropper bottles, with glass droppers. I rinsed them thoroughly with Aquafina water bottles (I realize this isn't ideal, but it was better than having soap, flouride, chlorine, and other poisonous residue in the bottles) and set them on a paper towel to dry.

Today there is still little water droplets in the droppers. They're the tiny ones that don't move even if you shake the dropper.

I used a hair blow dryer to dry out the bottles completely, but I'm not getting too much success drying out the droppers with it. I wonder if it was a bad idea to use the blow dryer at all. Maybe it blows all these ions in the heated air and it's all stuck in the droppers.

How do you clean out the dropper bottles and dry them?

I don't want the Iodine sitting in the plastic much longer as it has been in it for almost 48 hours now.

Is the little bit of bottled water still left in the droppers a problem at all? Can I just put the Iodine in anyways?

Thanks!
