Highlights from this day
- LC_MS_Lena — quantity is the test worth paying for. purity is usually fine and fill usually is not 19:01
- LC_MS_Lena — the split works from about 4 people. below that everyone pays more than the test is worth, not advice obviously 19:04
- LC_MS_Lena — update from 23 months ago: the blinding process is unchanged and it has held up fine, your mileage will differ 20:32

what compound should we prioritise for the next round
how much sample does the lab need for purity plus quantity
