Highlights from this day
- madrid_mg — power cut with the door shut for a few hours is fine. a full fridge holds temperature surprisingly well, happy to be corrected 21:12
- madrid_mg — i freeze aliquots and have had them test fine afterwards. others here would not do it and i understand why 21:39
- lower_frequency — reconstituted solution is the fragile part. that is where the cold chain actually earns its keep 21:41
a few hours at room temperature is almost certainly nothing. a week is a different conversation
freeze debate again
two to eight
[edited]coming back to this does the amber vial thing matter or is it marketing
