What's the difference in terms of quality of manufacturing or sterility when ordering pins?

I've ordered in the past from www.kvvet.com and bought their 100pack or 3cc/23"-1 syringe/needle combo and they ship in 2 days anywhere in the US.

Is there some concern in that the syringe is manufactured for veterinary use only? Can't tell the difference visually and they are even individually packed in semi-hard plastic cases (each syringe/needle combo)

all the pins you get from the vet supply cat's are sterile or should be just like the ones you get for the human race

Yes this is true that veterinary supplies are just as sterile as the ones for human use. As someone who works in the veterinary research industry, we require sterile products as well. As long as the product is individually wrapped and the seals are not broken they should be fine. Make sure they are labeled that they are a sterlile product. Some syringes can come in bulk, in boxes, with no plastic wraps. These are not sterilized and should tell you so on the box.
