I watched a movie of an actual lab putting finished gear on a cart and into a giant autoclave. I was just wondering the purpose of this. Iv never had any issues with my own stuff.
I would imagine this is just to be extra cautious. These companies produce massive amounts at a time and you never know what could go wrong. I wouldn't think it would be necessary if your brewing your own and know what your doing.
Also it makes me a bit concerned putting finished vials through this process. I mean there are rubber stoppers in those vials. Will those temps melt or partially degrade the rubber maybe putting plastic chemicals into the brew? Idk but I myself wouldn't risk it. Even if they did how can someone link some kind of cancer they got to a rubber stopper they were using in some prescription test they had 15 years ago.
To me it seems unnecessary. As long as you brewed it right and clean your stopper with alcohol before every pin you'll be good
