will it still work?
    #7833671 - 01/04/08 09:23 PM (17 years, 16 days ago)

my friend gave me a syringe that he bought from a sponsor. he tried to resterilize it by boiling it and then realized that heat kills spores. my question is if i knocked up some rye with it, could the spores possibly germinate or would it just mess up the water content and possibly contam?

Probably wont work depends how long it was in th water. If he dropped it in for a few seconds you could get lucky but odds are theyre dead.

He did not laugh as his eyes stopped in awareness of the earth around him. His face was like a law of nature-a thing one could not question, alter or implore. It had high cheekbones over gaunt, hollow cheeks; gray eyes, cold and steady; a contemptuous mouth, shut tight, the mouth of an executioner or a saint.

why would you boil a syringe when you could just heat the tip with a lighter?

I've read spore thermal death occurs at around 122 deg F.
Water boils at 212 deg F.
Even a 5 minute boil would finish them off.

A) Buy a new spore syringe, or
B) Sterilize your syringe, get a print, and make a new one.

If you have time and substrate to waste you could try it, but boiling the syringe was a very very dumb idea.

I personally doubt it will work.

Doubt that it will work, but u could always just try on a 1/2 pint pf tek as a test, make sure u shake the syringe up nice n good.

How long did he sterilise the syringe for?
