Glad to help. For info I have started a small home-based business in South Africa manufacturing supplements for the local market.

I purchase pharmaceutical grade materials as I cannot afford to compromise on quality. More expensive ($1.20/lb about for CaCl2) but worth the price. On my own system I would be willing to take a risk with an industrial/technical grade, but not on other peoples systems.
