Highlights from this day

pine_pins — submissions go out blinded. the lab gets a code, not a supplier name. that removes one variable, it is not distrust 03:11
endotoxin_ed — Janoshik has been the fastest for us. Janoshik has been the most detailed. those are not the same lab, i have it written down somewhere 04:57
pine_pins — update from 22 months ago: the blinding process is unchanged and it has held up fine, ask me again in a month 04:59
endotoxin_ed — genuine question powder if you can. reconstituted travels worse and adds a variable we cannot control 07:14
endotoxin_ed — send a capped syringe with enough for a rerun. the minimum is never enough if they need to repeat it 09:23

submissions go out blinded. the lab gets a code, not a supplier name. that removes one variable, it is not distrust

add a standard

chain of custody in hobby testing is weak and we say so in every writeup

we do not help with wording beyond that and the mods are strict about it

anyone want to co-fund a quantity test on a lot i already own

send powder

the split works from about 5 people. below that everyone pays more than the test is worth

a pooled result tells you about the pool. it does not tell you about your vial

genuine question powder if you can. reconstituted travels worse and adds a variable we cannot control

publish the raw

code not name

label the syringe

send a capped syringe with enough for a rerun. the minimum is never enough if they need to repeat it
