Then I drive away in my solar powered piece of shit car, cool stuff man. And then I go kill a bitch because the flaming orb in the sky told me to do so, and I don't know, oppress a few minorities here and there in the name of nuclear fusion? Religion is fun.

The only thing you can do to prevent contams is be more sterile.
It's possible you bought unsterile jars but you could never really know...I always flame sterilize my syringes and rub with alcohol for every injection, although typically just alcohol will do the trick, but from the sounds of things you need to do both.

If the contamination was from the jars it should show up in random spots, whereas if it's from the injection (either an unsterile syringe or faulty injection procedures) you'll only see contamination where stuff was injected and alongside the good mycelium... If you never see random spots of contamination away from the good stuff and the injection sites, the jars are probably okay.
If you think your injection procedures were flawless, try getting your syringes from a different source, because they could have been contaminated. Though usually if the syringe is the source of contamination, almost ALL your jars will be contaminated! So if you have more good jars than contaminated ones, it's probably that you aren't sterile enough when you inject them...
