The C25A AFN contains a statement from Cessna that DIEGME additive (e.g. PRIST) has provided acceptable protection from bacterial growth in fuel systems.


I have no idea whether the manufacturers are aware of Cessna's position on this - but I suspect that they probably are.

Edit

I just checked the PRIST website myself and of course they do acknowledge that their product has these properties - they just point out that the certification process is uneconomical so they haven't completed it.
