+ 2 Sealed sterile vials questions

ad

Bought some sealed sterile vials to transfer some gear into and the site described them as this:

100ml depyrogenated and sterile vials. These sterile vials are Type 1 borosilicate assembled with butyl stoppers and colored aluminum seals, with flip top. Neck size is 20mm. Assembled units are sterile and free of all endotoxins. Ideal for analytical laboratories, compounding pharmacies, veterinarians, home use etc.

As you can see on the photos of the 3 vials there is some kind of residue inside like dusty water has been left to dry in there? Is this normal? Any explanation for this? Iemailed the vendor (now under bac-water.com) earlier today but not had a reply yet?

Thanks

So what's everyones thoughts to this reply ive just had back?

"vials are sterilised in an autoclave occasionally water residue/mist will be present, the vials are 100% sterile"

Email them back and ask them what does sterile mean.

What if a surgeon used water stained but clean equipment to operate on someone.

That's a load of shit. Trash them.

Water residue is mineral deposits, fuck that.

I got a 10 year old dishwasher that's has a better drying mode than that. Like most said. Toss em. They should get a better rinse aid or maid. Ha

Question! Let's say you finish a vial of test e 250. Then you want to fill that same vial with more test e 250. If the vial is still sealed with a stopper can you refill that vial?

zeb0312's picture

No I wouldn't do that and why would you want to anyway when you have good sources that you can get supplies from.

Need make sure you have all your ducks in a row ahead of time....

Just my 2 cents.

Why would you chance it. This guy got some shit ass non sterile vials but there are good sources that carry actual sterile vials and pins. Pm me if you need to know where to look

Muffins's picture

Yes

I had some stealth come in and I have a couple of vials that i just finished using, I can just obv wipe it down the top with alcohol and refill it right? No problems? The seal and stoppers have never been removed

Not recommending it, but I've done it a few times with no problem. I ended up getting a lot of sachets and hated losing oil when I would poke through the sachet on both sides lol. Then I started doing as you have suggested. Like I said not condoning it, but I've done it probably 3-4 times that I remember. Good luck bro

Don't even think id want a replacement, think you should cut your losses and find a new source.

I only fuck with Hospira sterile vials.

zeb0312's picture

That's on the inside bro?

If so trash them don't use them at all.... Better safe than sorry.

When in doubt throw them out.....

You don't want some sort of inflection or what ever. It's untelling what is inside there

Seems maybe the area they where used to assemble them wasn't very sterile or something.

Right. Makes you think. Makes me think. Those viruses or diseases are so minute and quantum, such as Hep B or C and HIV, its impossible to wash it out or burn it, and not worth the risk. This I know for fact. Cant fuck with those bacteria that cause Infections. Too atomic, mīnut, and quantum; and potent

Yep on the inside mate, tried rubbing it off with my finger just in case but

Too hard to sterilize bud. It's probably just dried steam or water from a sterilizing machine? Maybe not. Who knows. Infections suck. Serenity and peace of mind is priority

Bin it...

Looks about as sterile as a used condom

Big Ian's picture

Lol @ the used condom comment.....

If they dont reply and replace, throw em out and buy from another vendor.

Big Ian's picture

Yeah thats the plan bud, be interesting to see what they say. Not sure i want replacements tbh, not sure id trust them to be sterile even without that stuff visible inside it.......

zeb0312's picture

I don't think I would take replacement. I would bite the bullet and .move on to a new source bro.

Good point.
