We do not use a magnetic stirrer but that is an option instead of using a glass rod. Would be useful if making large batches.

Mixing

Doing this all inside your still air box or laminar flow hood. Using proper sanitization technique.

Measure out all the ingredients into a depyrogenated beaker or media bottle. They do not need to be added in any specific order. Introduce a bowl of hot water to your work area, then submerge the beaker into the hot water, creatng a nice little bath. This heat will help the mixture fall into solution, but it’s not so hot that we risk damaging the hormones or the oils. With the beaker in a hot water bath, mix everything up with a glass stirring rod until the hormone powder is fully dissolved.

When we assemble our cleanroom we fill a large thermos with boiling water, so we don’t have to boil water in the clean room. We then take a large bowl, pour some boiling water into it, and then submerge the beaker into the water while stirring. It massively speeds up the dissolving process.
