- pharmac_pen — do i send a syringe or the whole vial 19:52
- van_isle_vial — i would rather fund one careful quantity test than three purity tests 20:55
- VialBot — Recon calculator: 10mg in 1.5ml = 10mg/ml. 20:59
do i send a syringe or the whole vial
do we publish the raw report or a summary
chain of custody in hobby testing is weak and we say so in every writeup
send powder
if you want to know about your vial, you have to submit your vial. that is the whole answer
while im here a code and a lot number on the syringe in permanent marker. that is the whole labelling requirement
in for one
the split works from about 3 people. below that everyone pays more than the test is worth
do you want the vial reconstituted or as powder
turnaround has been between 14 days and twice that depending on the queue
VendorInvestigate has been the fastest for us. Medutest has been the most detailed. those are not the same lab, i think
we do not help with wording beyond that and the mods are strict about it, someone check my working
coming back to this we publish the raw report. summaries hide the thing you needed to see
whats the wording on the customs declaration for a sample
[edited]coming back after 25 months, is the submission process the same
powder if you can. reconstituted travels worse and adds a variable we cannot control
label the syringe
i would rather fund one careful quantity test than three purity tests
what happens if a submission gets lost in transit
i keep half the sample back so there is something to send if the first one goes missing
Recon calculator: 10mg in 1.5ml = 10mg/ml.
count me in
keep half back
a pooled result tells you about the pool. it does not tell you about your vial, your mileage will differ
whats the split
submissions go out blinded. the lab gets a code, not a supplier name. that removes one variable, it is not distrust, thats just me
roughly one sample in 6 rounds has gone missing in transit. budget for it emotionally
publish the raw
