I will look for those thanks.
I have been researching since the earlier mention. It looks like there may be some initial equipment cost but then the consumables run around fifteen to twenty dollars per test after that.
To keep things concise I skipped mentioning several other points for instance when air isn't drawn back into the vial or cartridge a 31 gauge needle works without its plunger because of reduced vacuum. The photos included a couple of 23s but I didn't extract the plunger from the air filter as I was only arranging the images and missed that detail.
Absolutely, but I am going to type it into a text editor and double-check that I did not leave anything out. Previous how-tos were written in the middle of other tasks and from memory, so a couple of steps were not clear. I want to make sure the endotoxin steps are all included since the setup is expensive and it is important to get it right.
Thanks for passing along what you know here. Sorry about commenting on an old discussion. I've been working my way through past posts in this area, and this one stood out for all the fresh details it had. From what I can tell, it's beyond what most people bother with. I'd already bookmarked the opening message to check later, but the images showing protective gloves and needles made it clear how lost I would have felt otherwise. A few things I'm wondering: Is that an absorbent pad for pets? Is the example fluid just colored liquid? You're going with an injector device? Because they're given every day? And do you also use ones that last a week? One more thing I haven't seen addressed yet: Does subcutaneous delivery have a limit on how much liquid can go in at once? If that's the case, I figure you'd just pick another spot.
Hey, do you still feel like discussing how you handle endotoxin checks from home? I tried getting some test supplies that looked simple enough to manage on my own, but got blocked since I'm not tied to any company or lab group. It would be nice to learn about your basic setup, and I can hunt down the rest on my own if you'd rather skip a full breakdown.
The writeup was helpful. I realize there's much more for me to grasp on the subject of filtering as half the material went over my head.
We would love a good write-up on how to test for endotoxins as well.
