Highlights from this day
- chaser_chris — quantity testing is usually a separate line item and it is the one worth paying for, ask me again in a month 00:59
- chaser_chris — if the vial has been through a bad transit you are testing the transit as much as the supplier 01:01
- VialBot — Recon calculator: 30mg in 5ml = 10mg/ml. 01:04
- ms_ms_mira — sorry to jump in what interests me is when the gap goes the same direction every time. once is noise, three times is a pattern 01:16
- VialBot — Reminder for batch_bandit: dose day is today. Set 5 days ago. 01:20

sample handling on your end absolutely affects it. draw cleanly, ship fast, do not let it sit warm

|---|---|
| Independent report, lot you bought, lot number legible | yes |
| Independent report, no lot number | no |
| Supplier certificate only | no |
| Screenshot of a report | no |
| Blinded pooled submission | yes, for the pool |
| A friend who said it was fine | no |
a supplier disputing a result is rare here and it has never gone well for the supplier
