    Sachets and syringe filters

    Before putting gear from a sachet into a vial, is it necessary to filter it with a syringe filter? I understand it will filter the gear but what exactly does it do? Thanks in advance guys?

    yes it is highly recommended, what it will do is remove all bacteria

    CYP, I'm sorry for being a jackass but how the hell do you even use the filter; just put the needle through it or what? I just thought about it and realized I have no idea how to even run it through the filter!

    What ever happened to syringes with the filters built into them? They used to be all the rage a few years ago but I can't find them anywhere now.

    I reckon you make more money selling the parts as compared to the whole.

    smaller membrane catches more bacteria, also you will need a sterile vial and syringes, for rampage count yourself lucky as i know many personally who have gotten infections without refiltering
