A question.....

I'm looking for some references regarding killing candida albicans in
breastpumps by boiling at 100oC (as apposed to 160oC). I thought that it is
killed off completely (i.e. including spores) at temperatures above 60oC?
But is it possible for a woman to re-infect herself by re-using an
'infected' pump that has been boiled?
I have searched the archives and didn't come up with anything concrete.

Thanks,

Sara Bernard
