Insulin is measured in "units".
What is the difference between tb and insulin syringe?
TB syringes are typically used for administering TB skin tests, holding 1 ml of fluid and marked in tenths of a milliliter. Insulin syringes are designed for injecting insulin, with capacity varying depending on concentration and marked in units. The main difference lies in their specific uses and the volume they are designed to accurately measure and deliver.

If using a tuberculin syringe instead of insulin syringe-how much insulin should i draw up?
When using a tuberculin syringe instead of an insulin syringe, it's important to note the differences in their measurements. A tuberculin syringe is calibrated in tenths of a milliliter (0.1 ml), while an insulin syringe is calibrated in units. To convert units of insulin to milliliters, you need to know the concentration of your insulin (typically 100 units per 1 ml). So, if you need to draw up 10 units of insulin with a tuberculin syringe, you would draw up 0.1 ml of insulin.
How could you poison insulin syringes with intent to kill?
I'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that.

Is there ISO Specification for Insulin Syringes?
ISO 8537:2007 specifies requirements and test methods for sterile syringes, with or without needles, solely for the injection of insulin. The syringes are single-use only, primarily for use in humans. It covers syringes for use with 40 units of insulin/ml (U-40) and 100 units of insulin/ml (U-100). Sterile syringes specified in ISO 8537:2007 are intended for use soon after filling as they are not suitable for containing insulin over extended periods of time. ISO 7886-3:2005 specifies the properties and performance of sterile single-use hypodermic syringes with or without needle, made of plastic materials and stainless steel and intended for the aspiration of vaccines or for the injection of vaccines immediately after filling. Upon delivering a fixed dose of vaccine the syringe is automatically rendered unusable. ISO 7886-3:2005 does not specify the design of the auto-disable feature, which is left to the discretion of the manufacturer ISO 7886-3:2005 is not applicable to syringes for use with insulin (specified in ISO 8537), syringes made of glass (specified in ISO 595), syringes for use with power-driven syringe pumps (specified in ISO 7886-2), auto-disable syringes for variable dose delivery and syringes designed to be prefilled. It does not address compatibility with injection fluids/vaccines. Available from http://iso.org
What to tell pharmacist to get syringes in ca?
In California, to obtain syringes from a pharmacist, you can simply ask for "syringes" or specify the type you need, such as insulin syringes or general-purpose syringes. You don't need a prescription for syringes if you're using them for personal health needs. If you have a specific medical condition, you can mention that to ensure you're getting the right type. Pharmacies often have a policy regarding the sale of syringes, so be prepared for any questions they might ask.
