Superglue, aka cyanoacrylate, cures in the presence of moisture. This can be humidity in the air, or moisture on your fingers, etc. When pumping the material from a large container to fill small tubes, the entire fluidic system will be purged with glacial acetic acid (concentrated vinegar), which will remove all traces of H2O. The cyanoacrylate can then be primed through the system and will never cure as long as moisture is not introduced.
