when overseas a friend of my mine bought (test/deca), legit as it worked over seas. to bring some back home he put it into a plastic dettol bottle to get it out of the country.
Before putting the gear in, he washed out the dettol bottle by doing the following washes: water -> Isopropyl alcohol -> water -> Isopropyl alcohol -> water (only using bottled water)
He then allowed the container to dry and then put the gear into the bottles. he then plans on running this through a whatman syringe filter before putting them into vials for use.
I myself have done this before, but last time i used an empty bottle of contact lens cleaning solution, this turned out fine.
Problem is however, the bottle still retains a slight smell of dettol. I think this is just due to the plastic absorbing some of the smell and not any dettol remaining. Even if there is a trace amount remaining, it looks like diluted detol is used to clean wounds, so i cant imagine getting trace amounts injected into the muscle will cause problems.
But we are trying to research just incase before taking the plunge.
Can my friend proceed, or did he just waste his gear?
