Highlights from this day
  • VialBot — Inter-lab diff for lot KP-0925: 99.4% vs 98.6%. Within expected range. 18:18
  • salt_bridge — my sheet has 5 lots from WXT with a spread under a point, which is tight, n of 1 obviously 19:25
  • VialBot — Testing queue: 8 submissions open, 32 awaiting dispatch. 19:54
  • monoisotopic — i told GGPeps about a result they would not have liked and they did not argue. credit where it is due 20:00

if you are testing to settle an argument you will not settle it with n of 1, still working it out

one bad test does not condemn a supplier. one good test does not clear one. both halves get ignored equally

a single sample tells you about a single vial. that is genuinely all it tells you

unrelated but how do you separate batch variance from supplier variance

MO

a result without a lot number and a purchase date is an anecdote with a pdf attached, from memory

MO

if the vial has been through a bad transit you are testing the transit as much as the supplier, take that with a pinch of salt

test it again

VB

Inter-lab diff for lot KP-0925: 99.4% vs 98.6%. Within expected range.

MO

certificate said 99 and the independent came back 98.6, is that a problem

my result contradicts the supplier certificate, do i tell them

my sheet has 5 lots from WXT with a spread under a point, which is tight, n of 1 obviously

i test roughly every tenth vial. it is a sampling strategy, not paranoia

PF

the widest spread in my data is about 2.6 percentage points across five lots from one supplier, someone check my working

thats within range

AP

weigh the vial before you reconstitute. it costs nothing and catches the common failure

AP

genuine question what interests me is when the gap goes the same direction every time. once is noise, three times is a pattern

VB

Testing queue: 8 submissions open, 32 awaiting dispatch.

MO

i told GGPeps about a result they would not have liked and they did not argue. credit where it is due

WZ

a point or two between the certificate and an independent result is inside what two labs disagree by

WZ

the results in this channel skew because people test when they are suspicious. that is selection bias and it is real, happy to be corrected

slightly off topic but i have never regretted spending the money on a test. i have regretted not testing twice
98.1 against a certificate of 97.4 is fine. the same supplier landing low four times in a row is a question

selection bias
