Please help me save my 10g of tainted budder

Upon purchasing 10 grams of budder, I bought myself a new platinum cured medical grade silicone container for storage.
I know alcohol can dry out/ degrade silicone, but I cleaned the silicone container with 99% ISO briefly, then left it by a fan for 3+ hours to evaporate.
After at least 3 hours, I foolishly filled the container with my budder thinking the ISO had evaporated, but a few hours later I smelled my budder and noticed a subtle alcohol smell.
At that point I took the lid off the silicone container (unsealed it), put the container inside a vented glass pyrex container hoping the excess alcohol might evaporate and the smell would be gone.
A few days later and the budder still smells of ISO.
The amount of 99% ISO in the budder would be very trace, but is it safe to smoke? Is there a way I can save my budder by purging or evaporating further? If the budder is not safe to smoke, Is it at least edible or has the ISO made it poisonous?

This is $80/gram, hard to acquire 99.7% thc budder, and I'll thoroughly appreciate any help I can get in purifying my smoke!

Thank you cannabis community!

Did you take it out of the container? The silicon container might have soaked up the alcohol a bit and that might be all youre smelling

I didn't take it out immediately, my initial action was to just take the top off the container for it not to be sealed shut. Days later I put it in a different container.
I'm sure the silicone absorbed trace amounts of ISO, I'm worried that it's leached into my budder.
I put the budder in a different container and I don't detect an ISO smell, but unfortunately I'm a paranoid health nut retard and I'm still weary to smoke it.
Perhaps you know if alcohol tainted budder is edible?

You worry too much, if all you did was wipe the container with iso you're totally fine. You can smoke it, you can eat it, you can do whatever you want with it. Unless you're drinking pure iso, or trying to vaportini it, you're gonna be fine. You already inhaled much more iso vapor while you were wiping it down than you will when you blaze it up. Think about this, wax can pass a residual solvent test as safe as long as it has less than 5000 ppm, and there is no way that the minute un-evaporated amount you had in that container is raising your ppms to over 5k. If a little bit of iso could hurt you, dabbers would be dropping like flies.

I would test it thoroughly before I decide I'm tossing it, lol.

Try it. If you enjoy it then power to you.

If it makes you uncomfortable, or just freaks u a bit because of the iso, then Give it to a buddy.
