Fina question

I forgot to draw out an extra 3cc to purge the whatman with, so can I use a cooking oil (i.e. canola, vegetable, flax, etc.) as a substitute?

Only if it's sterile.

I don't know, un-sterile can real bad.

You wont really lose that much at all, man.... I think most SF retain about .1 cc or less.... So, that is not really going to affect the gear that much at ALL! you can use some kitchen oil, but be sure you let that shit sit for at LEAST a week before you use it so the BA can do its job..... I didn't recommend that by the way.... I just 'heard' it could be done......

yea i heard about people using like sesame oil or whatever, but i guess there's no point in risking infection over a miniscule amount of tren being wasted. A lot of the time the gunk spews through the filter towards the end of the filter process anyways, especially if you put too much pressure on. I guess I'll leave it as is.
