For what it's worth, I use a pressure cooker to sterilize substraights and jars for mushroom grows.
The mycelium being particularly sensitive to bacteria, improper sterilization will kill a colony.
While my procedure is the same every time, I'll still lose a colony from time to time. At a high enough rate that I'd not trust it to steralize anything being injected into the body.
Unlike mushrooms, there are zero physical indicators of contamination.
Just saying, go with the autoclave. Even if it means putting off opening shop while you save for it. If you're serious, it's worth taking the safety of potential customers seriously.
I know I put my well being above my source's pocket book.
Ya'know?
