i would rather fund one careful quantity test than three purity tests

Highlights from this day
- declared_value — submissions go out blinded. the lab gets a code, not a supplier name. that removes one variable, it is not distrust, n of 1 obviously 19:21
- declared_value — send a capped syringe with enough for a rerun. the minimum is never enough if they need to repeat it, n of 1 obviously update from 11 months ago: the blinding process… 19:41
- declared_value — chain of custody in hobby testing is weak and we say so in every writeup 19:42
- HPLC_Hank — sorry to jump in turnaround has been between 24 days and twice that depending on the queue 20:23
- HPLC_Hank — i coordinate the round, collect the codes, and post every result including the dull ones two labs on the same lot is a luxury but it is how we learned what inter-lab… 20:26
the queue is posted and updated. if your code is not on it, it did not arrive

update from 11 months ago: the blinding process is unchanged and it has held up fine

a pooled result tells you about the pool. it does not tell you about your vial
VendorInvestigate has been the fastest for us. PeptideMeter has been the most detailed. those are not the same lab

two labs on the same lot is a luxury but it is how we learned what inter-lab variance looks like
two labs on the same lot is a luxury but it is how we learned what inter-lab variance looks like, still working it out
update on the earlier thing whats the failure rate on samples actually arriving
how many people do we need before the split is worth it
