Highlights from this day
- lyophile_liv — if you are worried after a bad transit, test it. that is what the testing channels are for 18:25
- lyophile_liv — door shelf or back of the fridge 18:26
- lyophile_liv — the practical risk in winter shipping is freezing, and in summer it is heat. plan for the season you are in, happy to be corrected 18:29
- lyophile_liv — do you keep the unopened vials and the in-use one in the same place 18:32
- cold_chain_cmdr — two to eight degrees. most domestic fridge doors are not in that range and people do not check, your mileage will differ 18:55
