needle ???
    #5452083 - 03/28/06 05:06 PM (17 years, 11 months ago)

I went to walgreens to buy needles but they didn't have 18ga. So the lady just gave me some 19ga needles so I'm geting ready to use them and I just noticed they say with 5 micron filter. Will this work for spore syringes?? How about LC syringes I'm guessing they won't work for LC but hoping I'm wrong. I glad I didn't have to pay for them if they won't work.
There B-D brand 19ga W/5 micron filter 1.5inches

I was thinking the same thing just didn't know if spores would make it pass the filter. I've never seen a filtered needle before.

Well if I am reading the Mush Cult book spores are 5-30 microns...

And that is if they are not clumped...yeah I am thinking you need a new needle....


But now I wonder why the filter.......

Thanks for the info on spore size. They are kind of crappy needles but free. They also say not to autoclave on the blister pack. Looks like i'll have to find something different.

So what is the deal? Is there a filter inside the syringe that you can see? If so, just remove it. You can't PC them, according to the blister pack, but you can boil and alcohol them, probably. 19 ga. is pretty good for LC, so I would try them.

I was just saying there crappy needles if you can't autoclave them.
The Filter is in the needle its self. I wasn't worried about sterilizing because they are sterile until the blister is opened

Okay, but they're still useable if you can get that filter out of there. The filter is in the needle? Weird. I mention sterilization because if you open the syringe to modify it, there is a need to re-sterilize it. But, whatever, perfectly useable syringes are very cheap, so let's forget about screwing with these 'filter' thing-a-ma-jigs. I personally re-use both the syringe body, and also sharpen and re-use the needles. But then 'cheap' is not a word unknown to me.

I think I'll give removing the tiny filter a shot. I normily reuse the syringe and needle also. But these needles are kind of crappy time to order some.
