(a)The status of a mixture containing that which may not be eaten and that which may depends on the ratio of the two elements:

1.If most of the mixture is Isur, the entire mixture is prohibited mid'Oraisa.

2.If most of the mixture is Heter, but the Isur constitutes more than one sixtieth of the mixture, then the Isur has the status of a "Nosen Ta'am" (giving taste) to the Heter, and it is prohibited mid'Rabanan. This follows the understanding of those who maintain that "Ta'am k'Ikar" (the taste of a food item must Halachically be dealt with as its essence) is a Rabbinic law. There are those, however, who are of the opinion that "Ta'am k'Ikar" is mid'Oraisa. According to this view if the two elements of the mixture do not have the same taste then the entire mixture would be prohibited mid'Oraisa.

3.If the amount of Isur is less than one sixtieth of the Heter, then it is not Nosen Ta'am to the Heter and the mixture is permitted.

(b)The above guidelines apply to cases in which the two substances are of different tastes, and it is therefore possible to discuss one changing the taste of the other. When a liquid of Isur is mixed with an identical liquid of Heter, the Tana'im disagree as to the status of the mixture. According to the Rabanan, since identical elements are not Nosen Ta'am to each other whatsoever, the Isur is nullified by a simple majority of Heter; a ratio of sixty parts of Heter to one of Isur is not required. According to Rebbi Yehudah, the opposite is true. Even a miniscule amount of Isur prohibits the entire mixture, since mid'Oraisa Isur cannot be nullified by Heter with the identical taste as the Isur. (When the two substances mixed together are dry, all opinions agree that the simple majority of the mixture determines the mixture's Halachic status).

(c)Therefore, if the blood of Kodshim which must be dashed upon the Mizbe'ach mingles with blood that is unfit to be dashed on the Mizbe'ach (such as Dam ha'Tamtzis), the Rabanan of Rebbi Yehudah rule that we may follow the Rov (majority). If most of the mixture is Dam ha'Nefesh, it is fit for Zerikah. If most of the mixture is Dam ha'Tamtzis, it is not fit for Zerikah. According to Rebbi Yehudah, however, we may not follow the Rov. If there is even a miniscule amount of blood that is fit for Zerikah, Zerikah must be performed.
