See full text

A clean, sterile fingertip mist of simulated saliva of appropriate droplet size and quantity is provided to allow consumers to easily moisten their fingertips to open produce bags, to count money, separate papers and for other applications where moist fingertips are useful. The simulated saliva provided substitutes for natural saliva to avoid spread of ‘germs’ such as virus, bacterium, bacillus and other microbes and microorganisms, and other undesirables found in natural human saliva. A misting apparatus is provided, being tailored for delivery of a fine range, having distributed, but limited, quantity of droplets of sterile simulated saliva. This invention avoids consumers passing germs by using their own germ laden saliva to moisten fingertips then open produce bags, county money, separate papers and the like. In one embodiment, a method of layer separation by use specific sterile simulated saliva and mist dispenser therefor are provided in lieu of actions such as (i) licking fingertips, (ii) applying oily lotions or thick globs of hand sanitizer (iii) wearing gloves or (iv) intense, repetitive rubbing for friction separation.
