using a steri-pen on syringes
    #13696791 - 12/28/10 04:17 PM (13 years, 3 months ago)

I was just wondering if anyone out there has ever tried to use a UV steri-pen (for sterilizing water) to sterilize spores or spore syringes>?
I've got a ton of prints (cubensis mexicana), but they weren't taken under the most sterile of conditions...
Is there any other way to ensure I don't contaminate the syringes?

Will repost with results of steri-pen experiment
thnx

sterilize spores



:archiebunker: you might wanna reconsider that. UV damages nucleic acids so it doesn't sound particularly applicable.

What you're talking about is a UV-C light wand to destroy bacteria.  If there is bacteria on the print, it would help. As for mold spores and the like, not a chance.

or ,, stay with me

you can take your syringes, and caps and needles and little vials and all those,
and put them in a mason jar,

then what you do is pc that for 30 minutes at 13 psi

and if you want water
put in a jar of water with that ,

A dirty print will make a dirty syringe.

WAREON, if you want to make a viable culture, I think you'd be best off with some agar work.

Thanks for the imput - did some more research on the steripen and decided to go with agar mostly.
Still gonna try some syringes though - I did try to be clean about the prints, just not sterile... I don't know how much contam gets blown up into the cap - They're sitting in front of my dirty heater, so... We'll see how she goes!
