quantity is the test worth paying for. purity is usually fine and fill usually is not

Highlights from this day
- VialBot — Verification log updated: QSC — evidence added, status unchanged. 21:00
- lean_mass_lex — the queue is posted and updated. if your code is not on it, it did not arrive 21:36
- void_volume — submissions go out blinded. the lab gets a code, not a supplier name. that removes one variable, it is not distrust 21:38
- split_shipment — the split works from about 8 people. below that everyone pays more than the test is worth 22:09
ok so two labs on the same lot is a luxury but it is how we learned what inter-lab variance looks like
declare it as an analytical reference sample with a low value. that is what it is
chain of custody in hobby testing is weak and we say so in every writeup, ill dig out the number
i coordinate the round, collect the codes, and post every result including the dull ones
*Medutest not the other one
add a standard
how are we splitting the cost this time
send powder

powder if you can. reconstituted travels worse and adds a variable we cannot control

whats the split
do not send your only vial. that has happened twice and both times it hurt
update on the earlier thing whats the wording on the customs declaration for a sample

Janoshik has been the fastest for us. Janoshik has been the most detailed. those are not the same lab
queue is posted
coming back to this we publish the raw report. summaries hide the thing you needed to see
update on the earlier thing including a reference standard in the batch is the single best thing we ever added to this process
is there a preferred lab for quantity specifically

we do not help with wording beyond that and the mods are strict about it
code not name
publish the raw
we have never had a lab mix up a sample. we have had members mix up their own labelling twice
a pooled result tells you about the pool. it does not tell you about your vial
a code and a lot number on the syringe in permanent marker. that is the whole labelling requirement
in for one

blinded obviously
i would rather fund one careful quantity test than three purity tests
keep half back
thats the turnaround
the split works from about 8 people. below that everyone pays more than the test is worth

dont send your only vial
