so i was thinking about some things earlier and was wondering if it is possible to take things like syringes, agar, etc and vacuum seal them PRIOR to sterilization in my PC??? i know its either genius or completely ridiculous just not sure which lol

It's the latter. Ridiculous. Just no point and I have to wonder if a vacuum seal bag would even hold up to the heat of sterilization. PCing vacuum sealed agar sounds....silly.
I don't know what would happen but I can assure you it's ridiculous and unnecessary at the very least.

my thought behind it was if it could be done you could vac seal things and sterilize for later use just wasnt sure if anyone had tried it or not (couldnt find anything on it so kinda figured it was more ridiculous than genius) thanks for the input bro

It would be cool. They could just chill in the bag till you had to cut it open. I think during the cool down would pop the bag anyway if it was sealed. Plus like he said it probably melt if it's not right stuff.

i thought it would be super convenient if possible and figured you guys might be able to chime in with a little more experience than i have. i could definitely see the problem with bags busting ect but even if only half of what i run in my pc survived it would be worth it to me just to be able to set them somewhere and have them ready i work close to 100 hours a week so anything to save time is a must

You can wrap your tools in foil as well. It makes a nice little sterile packet that tears right open when you're ready to use. Your agar should already be in a container and foil wrapped.

Those bags are made of polyethylene and nylon, not sure how PE holds up to high temps but I'm pretty sure not well.

Exactly. Just make sure theres filter venting on the jar! Such as polyfill or a synthetic filter disc. And cover with tin foil to prevent water droplets getting inside.
Also, syringes should be cleaned by doing the water-simmering-suck-up-shoot-out cleaning Tek. At least in my opinion.

Either that or just order more.

Definitely. But reusing tools is always a good idea, in my humble opinion.

In the medical field they use autoclaves which then transfer the sterilized contents to bags, and are then vacuum sealed in. So, if you have $100,000 laying around you could do that. Otherwise I'd just use the foil method.
