This is probably a stupid question, but here goes:
Okay, so now I've got a minute to experiment with glutaraldehyde, and I
can't get it open. To obtain the smallest amount possible (20 ml) of the
stuff, I ordered 10 ampules of 2 ml each. These are glass ampules and I
assume the neck is supposed to be broken off somehow, but I can't make
it happen. I've scored the neck at what looks like a score mark, and
then tried to twist the top off, (with my hand wrapped in a rag to
protect against cuts) but it doesn't happen. I don't want to just whack
the top against the edge of the table; after looking at the 7 pages of
warnings that came with the order I'm not too keen on doing anything
that might result in spilling glutaraldehyde.
No doubt there's something obvious I'm missing here; if so, can someone
point out what it is, please? Thanks,
kt
