Has anyone used this in a bottle after adding micropur to the water? I go backcountry and have never had enough water to get me to where I'm going. I carry 2 1L soda bottles filled with water all the time. When one is empty, I fill it, drop in a tablet and go on drinking from the other bottle. How does this stuff mix with the micropur?

You shouldn't have any problem using it after you use MicroPur. I would caution using it while the MicroPur is doing it's thing because citric acid has a tendency to make oxidizing chemicals inert. The worry-free method would be to drop in the MicroPur tablet wait the prescribed time and then drop in the Nuun tablet which will only take a few minutes to dissolve. That way you can be assured of safe drinking water. The Nuun will help to clear up any chlorine taste making it much more palatable.
