The item [item=87841] may still be in your bags after turning in the quest Meltdown. It is safe to delete.
Using the grenades or not does not seem to affect getting credit for the kills; they only debuff the scorpions.
As an arcane mage, using the Klaxxi Enhancement "Raining Blood" I can take these things down so fast I don't even bother with the grenades.

Description
The venomsting scorpions on Zan'vess are fed sap from a young age, causing a fascinating mutation in which their natural armor plating becomes infused with amber. Effectively, it's organic kyparite, the same substance used in forging most of the empire's weapons and armor. I think I've found a way to chemically break down kyparite, but it needs testing. Use these grenades on the Zan'thik venomstings and observe the results.
