Read the directions first, then the VARIATIONS and FAQ section!
And please remember that these kits are for developing the ability of the user to create a sterile end solution and to experiment with the solubility of molecules in a vehicle in which ‘the experts' say can't be done. A note on pressure/syringe size to use with the filters.
A 20ml syringe will create 80psi, while a 10ml syringe creates 140psi. With a 10ml syringe the solution will go through more than 2x faster.
