Sterilizing Gear???

[st8grad]

Bros, if you think your vials sterility has been compromised is there anyway to sterilize it. I baked my test e a couple days ago to remove ba after transfering it from satchets to a 50ml vial. When I was drawing today I noticed air bubbles going into the vial. It looks like the pin I used to vent the vial left a noticable hole in the stopper. I used as sterile of a procedure as I could in the transfer. But the air bubbles worry me now and so does the thought of something being introduced in the transfer. I did it this way because I didn't trust leaving gear in the syringe for use later. These satchets have become a royal pain in my ass, and literally a pain in my ass too. Can I filter the gear....bake it again....?? I need some help on this.

Buy another sterile vial and filter and transfer but do not bake. Let it sit for about a week to make sure the ba kills anything else that makes it through the filter.

No definitively.

Toss it. Your health is more important than trying to salvage a vial of gear.

If it really bothers you go to the pet store and buy a couple of rats. Shave off the hair on their backs and inject one tenth of one ml under the skin. If there is no abscess then it is good to go.

And you can eat the rats when you are done.

The fact is that the first time that a multi-vial is used it is no longer 100% sterile!

True. That's about 35ml down the drain tough. Shit. Some lessons have to be learned the hard way.
