H Hauge New member Mar 28, 2002 #5 Toss it bro, whatever you paid it will not be worth it if anything got in it.
B Beezers New member Mar 28, 2002 #6 Absolutely not. Technically once it's opened it's no longer sterile. After a few minutes to air exposure any number of "toxins" could have found thier way into that open amp. Open it, draw it, shoot it.

I INSANE 1 New member Mar 28, 2002 #7 i gotta agree with the others. chunk it. if it had been drawn into a syringe and then sat, thats another story. but open, no way!
