Question 2

Will this survive triple digit temperatures?

Accepted Answer

Possibly. It depends on what you mean by triple digit. The low 100's (F) is when temperatures become high enough to begin significantly denaturing proteins. Although the organisms in Biokult are carefully suspended/encapsulated to keep them in a shelf-stable stasis, I would expect that the cellular damage done by temps 100-110F could make it so quite a few of them couldn't survive when brought out of stasis (taken) Would have to ask Biokult themselves to get more info. I expect they have data for die off at various temperatures.
