Sniffing jar for g2g?

So a friend has some jars that have a yellowish liquid that seems to be metabolites, but he isn't sure. Is it possible to sniff these jars outside of the glovebox before doing g2g transfer, or is this asking for contam jars?

you're asking for contams if you do that. however if it has a bad smell you should be able to smell it from outside the glove box or throught the filter.

Hmm, really? Do any of you think it would be safe to open the jar and sniff from the hole where I would put my hands through?
I can't smell anything through the polyfill filter, but I don't want to waste the grain and time on something I'm not sure about..

one time i had to take a piss test at the hospital, they haded me the sterile container and sent me to bathroom. well I'm not sure why but i wanted to know what the cup smelled like so i took a sniff before i peed in it. well I ended up contaminating it so bad that the docters made me stay at the hospital so they could do extensive blood work so I would say no probably not the greatest idea.

do the G2G first then after your done smell the remaining WBS.
if it smells funky toss it out and the other grains.
do not smell it first then do G2G just that much easier to introduce contams.

When you shake it, you will be able to smell through the filter. Check it like that. You never want any part of your body over top of anything that needs kept sterile, as spores and bacteria can fall off of you into your work. We can open spawn jars in open air because we mix them with pasteurized substrate, not sterile grain.
