What happens if you used expired benzalkonium chloride as hand disinfectant?
Rebsyluvu
Nothing bad is likely to happen, other than the fact that using a product whose expiration is 2 or more years past the expiration date on the label will likely mean that its potency will be diminished.
That said, expiration dates are often misleading; some hand sanitizing makers have labels might indicate a 2 year period simply because the manufacturer had only tested a 2 yr old 'batch' recently.. Shelf life for BAC is at least 3 years, and if used after that period, and depending on what the product is, it may have no effectiveness i.e. intended purpose of the product.
It is possible that an 'aged' solution might have become contaminated--not because of its 'age', but because the package itself might have ultimately been exposed to an element that caused the active ingredient to react in a negative manner--which in turn could prove potentially dangerous.

Will outdated frosting make you sick?
I spoke to customer service at a major distributor of ready made frosting. They told me it is a "quality issue" not a "safety issue" that you not eat outdated frosting. In my case, I'm only baking something fun for myself, so I determined that so long as it tastes okay - which it does - then I'll go ahead and eat it. The Customer Service Rep assured me there is nothing in it to make me sick as a result of the expired date, they are concerned with it not being as high quality expired as it is when fresh. The way I look at it, there's enough stuff in it to make me sick even when it's fresh, but I like the taste so I'm treating myself! I intentionally am not stating the name of the major distributor because if someone else happens to have a bad experience with outdated frosting, I don't want the manufacturer held responsible. It is all on you - whoever choses to eat it expired. And I do so....enjoy!
