I don’t know anything about the scientific part of this but I will add this to see what you guys think.
Before we do a study, don’t we really just want to know, if you prepare a thawed chicken on your granite counter, will the chicken juices go down into the granite and harbour a nasty bacteria? If the answer is yes, then we have something to study. If the answer is no, then there is really no point in going on with this test.
We already know that the solid materials will outperform, wood or granite.
What do you think?

We know that bacteria will thrive at room temprature given nutrients and a place to hide from mechanical or chemical attack. Andy’s idea needs to be done first, then go on to seeing how ss stacks up against estone and granite on cleaning ability.
Get some rest, Mr. Graves. If there is anything I can do to lighten the load, simple stuff, let me know.

Note the magnification rate on the photo. I fear my microscope might not be up to the task at only 200x. Need to check ebay for a stronger one.
Here is the link for the updated site. Remember this is open to all, if you post anything be sure and keep a backup in case someone hits the site and is able to damage it. Let me know when you add stuff and I’ll back it up to be safe.

February 7, 2007 at 8:21 pm #14742Norm WaltersMemberYeah Al, what’s up with her, think she was just a little “spaced out”.
