    If it’s in a sealed vial, it’s storage life is so long (years) so as to be a non-issue.

    How long can you safely store bacstat after you have used it (pierced the top the first time)? The vials I get typically say 28 days, but was wondering if anybody had any input.
    I tend to use it longer than that.
    There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...
    A minimum of 100 posts and 45 days membership required for source checks. Source checks are performed at my discretion.

    I wouldn't go far off the 28 days. Germs and bacteria are going to do their thing no matter what.
