From what I've read, glutaraldehyde is a less optimal alternative to autoclaving instruments for sterilization. Understanding that autoclave is the best choice, regarding glutaraldehyde, does anyone know how to maintain the sterility of the instrument after the 10 hour soak? In other words, the instrument won't be wrapped in the autoclave bag, so how to transport the (ingrown nail procedure) instrument from the glutaraldehyde container to patient?
