sterile 3ml cartridges

[tcpnomad]

Why is it so hard finding sterile 3 ml cartridges?! 😛

All I can find is random vendors selling in small lots, with dubious claims of sterility. Or Amazon and AliExpress - which I am not inclined to trust too much.

Are there no reputable companies supplying these? And why not? Not a big enough market? Is it difficult to do? Is it against FDA regulations?

Someone posted earlier that they source these from US vendors that have a sterility indicator on them. For the life of me, I can't find these remarkable exotic things.

Goodlife Supllies has them. They have an autoclave and sterilize carts themselves

So you buy the cartridges and fill them and then re-use a pen?

As someone else mentioned, Goodies has some. I have bought of Amazon and they're good, moving forward I'll probably stick to Goodies since it has better peace of mind compared to a random Amazon seller but the ones I got for sure were fine (and free shipping).

I just received 60 carts from Amazon for $29
They look good enough but no idea if they are actually as sterile as they claim.
The wrapper is slightly different from what I got from Underground but still looks OK.

Anybody know if there's a way to verify that the color change from blue to black is real and not just printed as black?
