Highlights from this day
  • private_script_pri — while im here i use bac water even for a single-use vial because it stings less, which is not the reason it exists, thats just me 23:14
  • boots_supply — lyophilised powder is far more robust than people think. it is the solution that is fragile i use bac water even for a single-use vial because it stings less, which… 23:17
  • private_script_pri — one unit is 0.01ml. 100 units is 1ml. everything else in this channel follows from that 23:25
  • boots_supply — while im here i swirl for about thirty seconds and then leave it. never had one fail to dissolve 23:36
  • private_script_pri — update from 9 months ago: switched to a single concentration and have not miscalculated since 23:52

aim the diluent at the glass wall, not at the powder. it goes in gentler

weighing the vial before you reconstitute is the only way to catch an underfill

can i add more bac water later to a vial ive already reconstituted

coming back to this why does everyone say 2ml specifically and not 1ml

[edited]

one unit is 0.01ml
