i'm a bit confused...are you drawing from an amp originally? if so.,..yes...you can draw from an amp and then transfer into a sterile multiuse vial.

Is the "vial" you are drawing from complete with a rubber stopper over top or is it an amp you cracked open that you are wondering "is it cool if I just let it sit around for a while, exposed to the environment, various bacteria, and bake in the sun then inject it into me at a later time of my choosing". If it has a rubber stopper, just use an alcohol wipe on the stopper before drawing from it, use a different needle each time you stick it in, and for God's sake do not return any liquid to the vial once you have drawn it out and injected some of it.
If you really need to, but dont mind loosing 0.5 mL of gear, a 0.22 micron filter adapted to a sterile syringe can help sterilize used gear. I think this is available from getpinz.

if it has a rubber stopper...then just draw out as much as you need...it's as easy as that. no need to take any extra steps. that rubber stopper keeps the vial from getting contaminated. so if you just take out as much as you need the rest will remain sterile in that vial.
