I like gpz for sterile vials and if you only need a few syringe filters
GPZ Med Lab - America's Choice for Online Medical and Laboratory Supplies.

I buy mct oil here
MCT Oil 60/40 (Medium Chain Triglyceride)

Pinz and syringes here
Medical Supplies and Veterinary Supplies at low Prices | Med-Vet International

Guaiacol from here
Buy Quality Medical Products and Equipment | Med Lab Supply

Everything else I buy on Amazon including syringe filters in bulk

I know that MCT gallon is a killer deal!

I started out using those shitty plastic filters save yourself the headache and wasted gear get the glass filtration system and enjoy the results. also an autoclave is ideal as well. just my 2 cents worth..

I’ve already ordered the syringe filters. I have heard that they are a pain because they are slow. But I’m willing to deal with that. But why do you say to save myself the wasted gear? I don’t want any of my gear wasted. Are they just breaking and the gear goes spraying everywhere?

I’ve heard stories about the plastic filters blowing up but it hasn’t happened to me yet. I guess when it does, I’ll go get glass

I've never had a problem with the whatman syringe filters and can filter over 100ml per filter unless it contains guaiacol then I get about 50ml before the guaiacol starts to break down the filter

Not a pain in the ass at all if you build yourself a syringe filter press like I did. it does all the work for you

I use autofil system. It’s super easy now that I use a thinner oil and a lot less BB

Funny, but I’ve never used a syringe filter but only to add some BB to some crashed cyp. 1000% worth the money to get a hand pump, glass media bottles, and some bottle top filters. The time savings alone is worth it.

YN, looking at the solvent prices from the link you posted, medlab is much cheaper. Just FYI. I think you had some issues with them in the past though if I recall correctly.

I didn’t like their shipping prices, for the service I was getting. But I bought a gallon of mig-840 for 140, and I’m jacked about getting my raws soon.
I now have syringe filters, won’t need a hand pump for 30 ml.
