I actually found an MSDS for an inkjet cartridge at one point, and verified that the plastic used should *in theory* be able to stand up to autoclaving. No guarantee regarding any warping, or any of the glue coming loose...
-- We never bothered autoclaving our inkjet cartridge - we just ran bleach through, rinsed liberally, and then sonicated in a jewelry cleaner. But then we were just doing E. coli with the inkjet cartridge, so we weren't overly worried about contamination. I'd say give it a try and let us know!
I would definitely *not* remove the electronics. That part is likely to be fine with autoclaving, and unlikely to survive removal.

Has anyone done this? I have put together a couple of diybio machines and I integrated one with a 3d printer as hey it was easier than all the fiddly wiring with the cd drives. So I was looking at autoclaving these cartridges... has anyone tried this and did they work afterwards? I was going to remove the electronics on the bottom but I suspect reattaching them will not be feasible...
Thanks,
