Sorry I deleted my post before noting who wrote it, but to the person who uses
the formula for surgery. If you go to the nursery and look on the flats of
formula and products from Ross you will only see the word sterile listed on
the bottles of sterile water. Why do they feel that they *only* need to make
sure it says sterile on the water bottles if the formula is supposedly sterile
also?  I don't know about the Mead formula as we don't carry that at our
hospital.  Claudia Globerger
