is it normal for the cake to look slightly collapsed on one side

Highlights from this day
15mg in 3ml is 5mg/ml. same numbers as 10 in 2, just more of it, your mileage will differ
what do you do with the last 50 units when you cant draw them cleanly
whats the smallest volume you would trust yourself to measure on a u100

bac water or sterile water for something im going into weekly for 4 weeks
if the powder is on the stopper, tap it down before you add anything. it will still dissolve either way
10mg in 1ml is 10mg/ml, so 2.5mg is 25 units. thats the one i use

[edited]gross powder mass is not net peptide. water and counterion are in that number
benzyl alcohol is what makes it bacteriostatic. it is about 0.9% typically

lyophilised powder is far more robust than people think. it is the solution that is fragile
is it worth buying a 3ml syringe for the diluent or is the insulin one fine
is there any reason not to just always use 2ml
30mg in 3ml is 10mg/ml, so 5mg is 50 units. half the barrel, feels like a lot but its right
weighing the vial before you reconstitute is the only way to catch an underfill
i use bac water even for a single-use vial because it stings less, which is not the reason it exists

swirl it. do not shake it. the foam is denatured protein and you are not getting it back
dead space
follow up how much do i lose to dead space with a 31G pin
Assay note: JEEP lot H-2814 reported at 96.8% of label content.

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

genuine question 10mg in 1ml is 10mg/ml, so 2.5mg is 25 units. thats the one i use

Reminder set. I will post here in 8 days.

anyone got a photo of what a properly dissolved vial looks like
benzyl alcohol is what makes it bacteriostatic. it is about 0.9% typically
slightly off topic but if the maths gives you 13.7 units, change the volume. do not try to hit 13.7
i have never once regretted using a rounder number and a slightly bigger volume
bac water
do you draw up with the same pin you inject with
my rule is one concentration for everything so i never have to think about it at 7am
