can be used to disinfect vegetables?

don't think so, the concentration of ozone is very small. to decontaminate vegetables, rinse with apple cider vinegar followed by a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution.

Hello,I used the unit for few days and than put it aside.We could not use it because after installing it on the kitchen sink faucet there was not enough clearance to use pots and pans in the sink.Thank you!

I did not try it for vegetables. I think it would work well. It's just the cleanup that is really the problem for me.

I would not think this would be something you would use this for. Unit is very small and I recall you need to hold this device very close (a few inches away) from area being sanitized.

Hi Robin, From what I have researched, all fruits and vegetable plants act as distillation devices. They effectively distill the water that they draw from their roots! This means that any fruit or vegetable that is harvested will contain pure H20. Look it up, and the results will satisfy you.

L.O.C. is definitely safe for immersing and rinsing fruits and vegetables. Have been doing that for many years.

I have not tried it on vegetables. It failed big time with apples and pears :(

It can be used on anything even up to time of eating. There is no insecticide in it so it is safe for all vegetables.

No I can't however I use a cleaning brush to clean it. If you don't have a cleaning brush use can use a vegetable cleaning brush.

Hi, I use these for anything...what I do if I'm not storing produce is merely take out the vent in the bottom, and it works great! Hope this helps!

This is what I have read in their instructions. It is 35% H2O2 in a quart size container. To use as a veggie wash or disinfectant, you need to dilute it down to 3% in the following manner. Please wear gloves, it WILL burn your skin (and you know how I know that!) Take 1oz (one ounce) of 35% and mix it into 11oz (eleven ounces) of DISTILLED WATER. Now you can wash any fruit/veggie, use it on counter tops, or you can use it topically on your skin or make a paste with a little of 3% & baking soda and brush your teeth & tongue! Works GREAT! I don't use toothpaste anymore, this is better. Hope this helps.

No, I dont believe it would work for that. I use it to cut fondant for cakes and it works wonderful. I dont believe that you would have any luck trying to use it on vegetables.

Yes. I have used it on zucchini and yellow squash, radish and a few other veggies.

No, this Basic H2 isn't safe to spray on vegetables, but the original blue basic h is. They are two different formulas. Shaklee still sells the original blue Basic H. Here is the website I get mine from and it gets shipped directly from Shaklee.http://foreverhealthyplanet.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=00042

Check the USDA guidelines. Steam is not safe for canning produce (fruits, vegetables or meat). Use a hot water bath or a pressure canner.
