Highlights from this day
- drawup_dee — lyophilised powder is far more robust than people think. it is the solution that is fragile 19:20
- drawup_dee — 10mg in 1ml is 10mg/ml, so 2.5mg is 25 units. thats the one i use 19:35
- drawup_dee — i use bac water even for a single-use vial because it stings less, which is not the reason it exists 19:42
- drawup_dee — if you draw up with a bigger pin and inject with a fresh one you lose a bit more to dead space 19:54
nope, redo it

dead space
how much do i lose to dead space with a 30G pin
is there any reason not to just always use 2ml
10mg in 1ml is 10mg/ml, so 2.5mg is 25 units. thats the one i use

20mg in 2ml is 10mg/ml. 1mg is 10 units, 2mg is 20 units, easy
gross powder mass is not net peptide. water and counterion are in that number
temperature of the diluent does not matter. how fast you push it in does
is a slightly cloudy solution ever ok or is that always a bin it
i use bac water even for a single-use vial because it stings less, which is not the reason it exists
i was wrong about this last year: it is fine to draw cold, it just stings more going in
a 3ml syringe for the diluent and a u100 for the dose is the setup most people here end up with
thats the vacuum

10mg vial
+ 1.0ml -> 10.0 mg/ml 0.5mg = 5u 1mg = 10u
+ 2.0ml -> 5.0 mg/ml 0.5mg = 10u 1mg = 20u
+ 2.5ml -> 4.0 mg/ml 0.5mg = 12.5u (dont)
+ 5.0ml -> 2.0 mg/ml 0.5mg = 25u 1mg = 50ucan i add more bac water later to a vial ive already reconstituted
i have never once regretted using a rounder number and a slightly bigger volume
it should be completely clear with no floaters. cloudy means stop
thats 5mg/ml
