Caps for Vials?

[MRRoboto]

I just recieved my sterile vials today and I noticed they didn't come with lids. Should I have one of those little plastic/rubber lids handy before I transfer my gear into the vial from sachets?

yes, hold off until you get the plugs/caps and crimper.

Wow, no shit! I didn't know I needed all that for sterile sealed vials. Did I mention that they are sealed vials?

[MRRoboto]

Can I get some confirmation on this gents?

you should have just bought the sealed vial with the stopper already in it. it woulda save you some time.

Yeah, that's what i have. A sterile, sealed vial with some kind of rubber stopper that I'm suppposed to stick the needle through. So...no cap with that one right?

I'd cap & crimp them just to make sure the stopper don't come out...

these are all i use. vent it with another small needle and filter your gear in through another (just leave the filter needle in when you screw off the syringe to fill it again.) if you plan on filtering with a whatman.

o0o you're talking of the flip top. u dont need one, just rub it with alcohol before using each time (including filling)

^ well in that case, nevermind.
