CIRCUIT

Type of action: Primary chemical destructor. Purpose: Household disinfection, burning off fresh mycelial threads of fungi on surfaces. Application: The acidic environment of acetic acid is lethal to basic O-41 spores. If traces of black mold or "Rust Breakthrough" are detected in plumbing, the area should be generously doused with pure vinegar. The acid destroys the fungal membrane, stopping its growth and preventing Mimics from forming geometric shapes.

(Concentrated sodium chloride) Type of action: Osmotic blocker. Purpose: Cleanses mucous membranes of personnel, prevents mental and optical contamination. Application: If you have made visual contact with the "Tenant" or "Glass Bead," immediately rinse your eyes and face with a hypertonic saline solution. The salt draws moisture from O-41 microspores that have come into contact with the mucous membrane, literally drying them out before they have a chance to germinate in the optic nerve and cause hallucinations. The solution is also used to treat clothing after exiting the Conditional Reality.
