Can I boil sterilize the lid with a rubber vacutainer grommet on it?

You know one of those self healing sites. It's blue pretty thick rubber on a standard lid to a pint jar. I don't have a PC so can I just boil it for about 30 minutes or so?


Thanks for any help,
eleven34

What?

You can boil a lid, sure- but that's not really going to sterilize it. What are you putting the lid on?

It's the lid to a jar that had Karo syrup in it. You know so I can inject it with a couple of cc's and then the spores will germinate into the white boogery looking strands.

I don't have a pressure cooker to sterilize it and I would like to make my own with honey and distilled water so I can make multiple syringes out of one jar.

Well, you have to have a PC to make the karo boogers. Usually anyway- you might just get lucky with the boil.

I would be really surprised if it melted or caused any problems but I could be wrong,only way to know(Unless someone else has done it and chimes in)is to try it and let us know:thumbup:
