Can I use natrium chloride vials instead of buying sterile vials?

ad

Hey guys, I've been looking for hours and hours for sterile vials over here... No success...

The smallest vial made from glass containing natrium chloride (normal salt based infusion-solution) comes at 50ml size... They're obviously sterile.

Can I just buy a pack of those and drain them with a somewhat small needle?

I couldn't even crimp my own NON-sterile vials, since the tool for it is like 250,- Euro... Don't want to use vials with only the plugs in, without them bein crimped down...

Any opinions?
Would the traces of NaCl-solution in the vial interfere either with injection (doubt it, that's what it's for after all) or my most ambitious goal of making test-suspension (H2o).

Thanks guys!

IMHO you should just import sterile bottles. There are many sources for them and they are quite affordable. Bottle crimpers are 100+- USD new or 30-50 USD used if you shop around.
