life of a syringe filter

Typical is 100ml per filter bro. I've pushed to 150 and.no problem I've also back washed with heet alcohol and let dry over night when at a locale with no mail service .worked like a champ.

Yeah I know what u mean. Price has gone up like everything lab wise and when u don't have and you need then u get out the one u back flushes with heet (methyl alcohol ) that's been in sterilized jar drying.no germ can survive heet..last resort of course but I've done many times .ib..just for personal use of course.

I've not had great luck with syringe filters. Things get tough mashing the plunger even going down to a 5ml syringe.

Take the leap and go bottle top!! Other than the pump ($45ish) it's not much more expensive. You can grab a "zap cap" filter (15?) and filter 500ml. Then if you have more hormone ready, you can use the filter 3 more times. That's 2,000ml total you can filter. Remember filter cost is about $15.

Cheaper and easier on you!

For sure, I agree.

Whatman filters 100-200ml fine

Milipore 50-75 if it doesnt crack on you.

there is no typical number when it comes to just how long they last.. One thing you can not control is the purity of your powders. There are way too many factories now making steroid powders with less than adequate standards when it comes to refinement of the powders. So the purity is down, even though they may claim otherwise. This is most definitely evident when it comes to filtering your end product. Whereas the days of old, when there were just a few companies with stringent guidelines when producing steroid powders. Their powders were much more pure and a filter would could be used much longer before it would clog.

as for syringe filters.. a few of us have come up with gadgets over the years like the caulking gun, forced gravity fed ..

if you want to make life easier bro get a 100ml vial ,60cc syringe ,filter in one vial ,then split em in 10ml vials, i dont know if thats how you do it but filtering in 10ml vials is a huge pain

oh btw in 60cc syringe only draw 40mls at time ,you could even use caulk gun if using syringe filters ,draw oil to 40cc then draw air to the 60 mark that will help if using a caulk gun, the way you made it sound that your filtering 10mls then removing the filter and just repeating the process, make life easier on yourself ,or better yet get a hand vaccum pump like someone already suggested, good luck

Lotta good tips and ideas guys.. im not diggen the cut raws , I've never seen a cut fortune cookie..bastards..

i use mine till they start to clog/become difficult to use. not worth blowing a hole through one. filters are cheaper then dealing with in infection or worse.
