Wardi77I would not use that vial. I'd take the loss and toss it rather than risk it and possibly get an infection/abcess. Some people might say "filter it" but I personally do not homebrew and the reason I purchase gear is so I will not have to go through any of the filtering etc. If I had to filter it, I might as well buy powder and homebrew my own. Talk to your source and bring it up to him and see how he handles it. Depending on how he responds, that should tell you whether or not you buy from him again or not.
Ya bro you said it looks like wood? I would e- mail the src and ask if they could explain what it might be. 1 out if 15 is a pretty good ratio so they may know what happened. Just be cool about it and depending on their explanation that's when I would decide to toss or filter it. Hell they may even send you another one.
Bro, throw that vial out. It has obviously been compromised and contaminated. Whether its particles from the stopper, dust in the oil, or even moisture that may have compensated before processing, it's been compromised Period...The price of that vial is nowhere near the price, pain, and suffering of having an abscess treated.
I would run it through a big whatman filter slowly into a new vial. You will lose a little product but not as much as a trash can. If the floated stuff is from the stopper the filter will catch it. Unless its Russian will send me a pm and tell me the source. Thanks.
You don't lose any if you have some sterile GSO. Leave 2ml GSO in a separate syringe. When you're finished filtering through your .45 whatman, put it on the GSO syringe and push it through. Whatmans hold 2ml. So you won't lose any. I have done this countless times. Always worked. I wouldn't toss it. But that's just me.
WithdrawlAgreed. This is why I always keep filters and sterile oil on hand at all times.
yeah what he said
Post pics bro so we can check it out
Sadly we should know where this came from
Please post pictures if your haven't already dome so
