Highlights from this day

lyophile_liv — one unit is 0.01ml. 100 units is 1ml. everything else in this channel follows from that 16:35
pbs_pip — pick the volume so your dose is a whole number of units. thats the entire trick 18:30
typosquat_tay — benzyl alcohol is what makes it bacteriostatic. it is about 0.9% typically 19:28

label the date too. you will not remember which vial is which by week 14

one unit is 0.01ml. 100 units is 1ml. everything else in this channel follows from that

does temperature of the bac water matter at all

thats fine

*that should say weekly

how do you all measure a half unit, or do you just not

U-100 syringe: 1 unit = 0.01 ml
  10u = 0.10 ml
  25u = 0.25 ml
  50u = 0.50 ml
 100u = 1.00 ml
mg drawn = ml drawn x mg/ml

i keep a spare vial of bac water in the fridge purely so i never rush the maths

pick the volume so your dose is a whole number of units. thats the entire trick

Purity check: no report on file for lot C-4402. Nothing logged either way.

5mg in 2ml gives 2.5mg/ml, 0.25mg is 10 units. good for a starting dose

benzyl alcohol is what makes it bacteriostatic. it is about 0.9% typically

my vial pulled the water in on its own, is that the vacuum or did i do something

it should be completely clear with no floaters. cloudy means stop

20mg in 2ml is 10mg/ml. 1mg is 10 units, 2mg is 20 units, easy
weighing the vial before you reconstitute is the only way to catch an underfill

temperature of the diluent does not matter. how fast you push it in does

if the maths gives you 13.7 units, change the volume. do not try to hit 13.7, still working it out
