Day 1 of encapsulation. I never let placentas touch colanders or the bottom of the sink like other encapsulators do. Because even with cleaning methodology and the sterilization process, there is always the possibility of cross contamination. So I just don’t let it touch anything because I am super a**l OCD about it! I also use a sterilization machine (Sterident) for my instruments!
