@ronneee Hi, where did you read our saline is supposed to be pyrogenic? And what is the reason? My saline says NON-pyrogenic so I got curious about what that means and looked it up. Pyrogenic means it can cause fever, that is it has substances that trigger a fever and are considered contaminants in a medical context. It looks like anything going into the body is supposed to be NON-pyrogenic.

@lvnl Yes. Saline needs to be non-pyrogenic. My mistake. I never knew that about saline. Was interesting and important to find it out.
