Bacteria test solution ... Explanation: ... sounds most logical to my ears. For a reference relating to beer and brewing, see http://www.scottlab.com/products/filtration/documents/Filter... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 Stunden (2006-11-01 14:53:46 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- sci-trans: bacteria are a subspecies of germs. If we wanted to be totally accurate, perhaps it should be "bacterium test" - but I think that would be OTT. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 Stunden (2006-11-01 14:55:07 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sorry, bin that note - but I still stand by "bacteria test solution". |
