anyone worked out a recon volume that puts 1mg on a round unit mark
one unit is 0.01ml
[edited]slightly off topic but my rule is one concentration for everything so i never have to think about it at 7am, ask me again in a month
it should be completely clear with no floaters. cloudy means stop
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 = 50uround numbers
[edited]how do you all measure a half unit, or do you just not
one unit is 0.01ml. 100 units is 1ml. everything else in this channel follows from that, thats just me
the jewellery scale is a good habit but calibrate it, they drift badly
unrelated but i was wrong about this last year: it is fine to draw cold, it just stings more going in, anyway
30mg in 3ml is 10mg/ml, so 5mg is 50 units. half the barrel, feels like a lot but its right
slightly off topic but i write the mg/ml on the vial with a sharpie the moment i reconstitute it
if i add 2.5ml to a 40mg vial what concentration am i actually at
is a slightly cloudy solution ever ok or is that always a bin it
