Dirty Syringe Filter Discs (SFD)?
    #21538983 - 04/12/15 07:24 PM (9 years, 1 month ago)

So I have a shit ton of liquid culture lids that have been tekt out with syringe filter discs.  I used them with my liquid cultures until I had to pack up and shut down.  I have been going through my inventory of stuff to determine what is worth keeping and what I should throw out.  As I said, I have a shit ton of these lids and they are all perfectly useable still with one exception.  They all have old, dried, crusty liquid culture crud in the tapered tube part.  Has anyone figured out a good way to clean SFDs up or should I just count my losses and move on?

Yea thats a wheel filter. Health concious junkies use them to filter binders ans fillers out of pills.

Soap and water wont take it off? I think its just a micron filter inside like an SFD. I dont think it should matter that much since it goes through a PC cycle as long as it isnt clogged? :shrug:

Wait for someone who uses these to answer, sorry man I dont know

That's what I am saying though.  It is clogged.  The inside of the tapered tube part has the remnants of old LCs sticking to it.  I could just run it through the PC but I think the hardened gunk that is in the tube will remain.

I know for shooting drugs you can only use them a few times, so they might be toast

Not quite the same application tho haha

Cool I figured as much too.  I just have a real hard time letting mycology shit go.  You should see the stacks of re-parafilmed agar dishes I have sitting around because of that.  I was hoping that someone would've chimed in and said, "Ya mate, I've had the same problem and this is what I did."  I guess I will let them go.  It's not like Syringe Filter Discs are all that expensive.  I picked some up from The Mad Seasons not that long ago.  Looks like I'm going to get some more. 

mushpunx, thanks for stopping by and taking the time to give a reply.
