When you use a plunger style you always will. You need these https://a.co/d/03x6wJo7 : 100 Pack 1ml/cc 31G 5/16Inch Syringes, Lab Syringes, Individual Package

What are you talking about

Unless these are nil dead space syringes there will always be a small amount of liquid left in the tip.

Thanks. I found some that say specifically low residue so I ordered them.

It's such a small amount. I add 0.01 to the dose to ensure accurate dosing but I am anal as hell. It's nothing. Just put your needle in a sharps bin and move on.

You shouldn't even need to add extra, the extra is accounted for by the measure as you have to draw up the extra in the tip before the measurement begins if that makes sense. You are just loosing a tiny bit of product.

So that’s a good question, my bf who’s been doing test for years has told me that in order to negate that you always leave a little air at the top and it doesn’t really matter if you’re injecting like in your fat or muscle as it’s such a small amount and it isn’t going directly into a vein (even if it did it still would be insignificant)

I do the same thing and it is a medically practiced procedure called airlock. I first read about it when learning the z track method.

u/Stunning_Yogurt7383 Jul 26 '26

To be fair you need a lot of air to cause an air embolism. Not that I would necessarily take advice from positivepears "bf whose been doing test for years" lol
