Saving UG test-e with BB & Autoclave use

If I have some UG Test-e 250 that I suspect is crashing in the muscle, can I add BB and heat and filter it to reduce pain? The bottle actually lists ingredients: Test-E, BA, and peach oil. I suspect it's overdosed and is crashing as soon as I pin it. I have access to a sterile chemistry lab so I'm comfortable doing this safely if it would help.

Also, I have access to an autoclave used for molecular biology. Would it be worth it to run my gear in a liquid cycle with the stopper out? It wouldn't be a hassle, but if there's no point then there's no point. I've pinned this gear 3 times and received no signs of infection, just crashing pain.

Edit: Check me on this..
Original test concentration: 250mg/mL
Original volume: 8mL
BB added: 2mL
BB concentration: 20%
Final test concentration: 200mg/mL

That BB addition would work fine.

I would not subject it to that heat, and no heat is necessary.

I have never "gotten" the appeal that weird oils apparently have for some companies and some individual users. It surely is not that there's anything wrong with the simple, standard choices. But things like peach oil get used anyway.

There is one literature reference saying that steroid preparations tend to crystallize out of peach oil on storage.

Thanks Bill. Would you prefer the addition of BB or of grapeseed oil to soften this stuff up?
 
I would be happy with either. Personally I'd pick the oil, because either will do the job, and the preparation would be slightly less viscous with adding the oil instead of the BB. The BB would have a theoretical potential (but I think unlikely) advantage in that it would make it absolutely certain that the solution is not overloaded, as it's a more powerful solublizer than the oil, but I expect the oil would be good enough.

Either way would be fine: personal preference really.
 
Excellent; thanks! Oil would be much easier than justifying to the university labstores why I need BB anyway.
