is it worth reporting a result that came back

one result is a data point about that vial, and the vial next to it is a different data point

result in a result that lands exactly where the certificate said is worth posting. that is what the log is for

i tested a vial i had deliberately left warm for a week and it came back indistinguishable, which surprised me, paperwork attached

paperwork attached i keep the report in the same folder as the order, because a result without its order is nearly useless

attach the pdf

a lab reference number is worth including because it makes the result checkable by somebody else, the band is what matters

within a tenth

a single low result on a supplier with thirty clean ones is a vial, and the archive treats it that way

hmm, log the lot number

log the boring results too. a channel that only records failures produces a false picture, that is inter lab range

surprised me too

reference number included sample handling on your end absolutely affects it. draw cleanly, ship fast, do not let it sit warm, thats the old figure

for the results log i record purchase date, test date, lab, lot, purity, assay and the fill weight, and it takes two minutes, one vial, one lab, one date

the boring results are what makes the interesting ones mean anything at all
