A request for information!

Has any body references relating to Lauric Acid's ability to neutralise
the AFB spore's ability to "germinate"

This has been referred to on a Apicultural list based in Belgium.
Apparently studies were carried out in the 1990's. No references cited.

Also, during the manufacture of bees wax foundation, the same acid is
cited as being present in wax and a reason why AFB contamination does
not carry over in foundation.

Has any body evidence of AFB infection in bee colonies  resulting from
use of new but contaminated foundation?
With sub clinical spore quantities of Paenibacilus larvae present in
beeswax, is there a need to "sterilise" during foundation manufacture?

Thanks for any help

Peter
