I read today that the FAA has extended the timeline in which it will be inspecting all charter operations specifications section A008 for compliance with operational control requirements.
We have three sizes of volumetric flasks to choose from: 100, 250 and 500 milliliters and they feature a single etched line or graduation to denote the fill-to-line at the chosen volume. Each size flask is specifically made for preparing solutions that correspond to its nominal value. For example, a 250 ml volumetric flask is the appropriate choice only when preparing a solution with a total volume of 250 ml.
Generally, the volume of liquid per container is more important than the total volume per load. For example, a 2 liter flask containing 1 liter of liquid takes longer to sterilize than four 500ml flask each containing a volume of 250ml of liquid. Packing the autoclave: Avoid overloading the chamber with material; space must be available for the heat/steam to penetrate everything.
