no it only depresses if you apply pressure. If the finger is just resting on it the liquid inside will remain there.

To ensure that the plunger can move and not stuck. Because if it is stuck, when the gas goes into the syringe, the plunger will not move back and so the values you received will be lower than the actual value

How can you dissolve trimethoprim?

The easiest way to dissolve trimethoprim for oral administration is to drop the tablets into a 60cc syringe - pull the plunger out then drop the tablets into the body of the syringe. Put the plunger back in and depress it until the tablets can't rattle around. Fill a small glass with tap water, then pull water into the syringe. Place a fingertip over the tip of the syringe to seal it, then shake the syringe to get the tablets to dissolve. This may take a few minutes, and the resulting paste/gel/liquid is not going to taste good to your pet so expect to need some help restraining him/her to give the medication.


Does a 5cc or 10cc syringe have higher pressure?

The pressure generated by a syringe is a result of how hard the plunger is pushed and the internal diameter of the needle, not the size of the syringe.


How do you make a slurry for dogs medicine?

The easiest way I have found is to pull the plunger out of a large syringe (60 cc works great). Drop the tablet(s) into the front of the syringe and put the plunger back in. Run tap water from a faucet and stick the tip of the syringe into the running water. Pull back on the plunger to get 20-30 ccs of water in the syringe - it should be about half full. Turn off the faucet and place your index finger over the tip of the syringe. Shake until the tablets are dissolved, then use the syringe to "inject" the slurry into your dog's mouth.


Why does a syringe plunger go back in if you pull it out?

When the plunger is pulled, the volume inside increases. This reduces the pressure inside, and the air pressure outside forces liquid in, in an effort to make the pressure inside and outside the syringe equal again.
