Highlights from this day
  • ruo_only — how do you handle a result that is good but the sample handling was poor 18:50
  • bac_water_bill — a good result with bad sample handling gets logged with a note about the handling. context is part of the record 19:19
  • vial_ledger — what counts: an independent report, on a lot you bought yourself, with the lot number, from a lab the room recognises 19:22
  • stack_sceptic — unrelated but if you want to help, buy a lot, test it, and post the report with the lot number. that is the whole contribution 19:55
  • lipase_lore — we refresh on new evidence, not on a clock. an old verification with no recent results says so on the entry 21:36

a verified supplier can still ship you a bad vial. verification is about the record, not about your parcel

a referral link is disqualifying because it makes the reporter an interested party. that is all

slightly off topic but how long does a verification stay current before it needs refreshing

[edited]

ok so two labs a point or two apart on one lot is normal. both go in the log with both numbers

verification is not a recommendation. it means the evidence standard has been met, nothing more

blinded is better

somebody once offered to fund the testing programme in exchange for an entry. the offer is in the log

SS

update on the earlier thing has verification ever been reinstated after a revocation

LL

while im here does a good result from VendorInvestigate outweigh a bad one from Medutest

thats not evidence

i have watched this standard hold for three years including when it was inconvenient for a popular supplier
