Cheapest virus tests?
Default

I buy Adgia in 25 packs, comes out to about 7/test. I have had no issues with batch testing and have never had a false positive with this platform. I like the Rega shelf stability but you can overload Rega with too much tissue and get false positives, or so I'm told. I go through a good amount of tests so I don't have issues with Agdia expiration, although as Roberta mentions the test strips are all lumped together in a small tube that is not individually sealed.

Alcohol will not sterilize virus.

I strongly urge you to not reuse pots if you are serious about virus, unless you are confident that your material is unvirused. Clay pots WILL spread virus. I would not even chance sterilization. I do re-use clay pots with a bleach sterilization process but that is because 1. I test everything, and the plants in those pots had tested negative, and 2. neo trumpet pots run 10 bucks a pop.
