Saline - expiry date?

Hi Folks,

Does anyone know how long a bag of saline can be used for after you start using it? I've got a 1000ml bag and I'm only using 20ml at a time.

Thanks,

Louise
 
Providing you are using different needles each time you draw it out and for each bunny, the fluids will stay sterile within the bag. Try to not introduce any air, you can also store it in the fridge, warming it upto body temperature before administrating. It would be fine to use that bag for upto a week.
