Grocery bags instead of gloves for inoculating?
    #18718857 - 08/17/13 01:19 PM (10 years, 5 months ago)

I'm curious if I could wrap a grocery bag around my arm, tighten with tape, and inoculate that way? Should I spray the bag while I'm wiping down the glove box?

Probably work. What you inoculating? Gloves and sleeves are pretty cheap though

For fucks sakes man...  you can get a box of 100 gloves for 5 bucks if you get the cheapest.  So ask yourself...  is spending 10c per inoculation just too much money to do it correctly?  (Or you can get some decent ones for 8-10 bucks a box and still only be counting pennies per use)

With the bags aside from looking silly as fuck, you have a pretty good chance of fumbling things around and dropping them, etc...

I just wanted to use what I currently have. Where can I purchase gloves/sleeves?
Dollar store? Lol

For my glove box all I did was create a large hole, I may put tape around the edges

in theory, not a bad idea.
in reality, pry a bacteria and handling nightmare.

i dont use gloves at all.

You don't have a glove box. You have a still air box. What are you trying to inoculate? PF cakes?

I'm inoculating quart jars of wbs (frank tek)
I cut 2 holes large enough for my hands to move around in. That should be all I need

If you're able to rub it all down in iso-alcohol I don't see why it wouldn't work.
Same principles as in wearing gloves, easier to disinfect than your arms.

BUT.. It would probably be a real PITA to work with, I've bought 100 cheap gloves
that are way to big and loose, and I'm regretting not buying something
that makes handling a little easier.

On my way to the store to pick up gloves and 70% rubbing alch.
I assume I'll rub the bucket down with the alch, wait, then begin inoculation... Burn tip of needle then wipe with the alch between each jar.

my understanding is alch requires 15 minits immersion,
an alch wipe, is less effective than peeps realize.
