Highlights from this day
  • lyophile_liv — took me a year to stop over-diluting. the measurement error at 4 units is worse than the convenience, i could be wrong 17:05
  • mag_citrate — coming back to this if the maths gives you 13.7 units, change the volume. do not try to hit 13.7, anyway 17:20
  • VialBot — Channel stats, last 30 days: 138 messages from 21 members. 17:35
  • swirl_not_shake — is the meniscus reading actually a real source of error or am i overthinking 17:39
  • septum_sal — while im here a 3ml syringe for the diluent and a u100 for the dose is the setup most people here end up with 17:41

how long after reconstituting before its actually dissolved

😂1

swirl dont shake

sorry to jump in my rule is one concentration for everything so i never have to think about it at 7am

anyone got a photo of what a properly dissolved vial looks like

nobody here should be telling you a dose. we can check your arithmetic, thats a different thing

check your maths

nope, redo it

slightly off topic but gross powder mass is not net peptide. water and counterion are in that number

SS

aim the diluent at the glass wall, not at the powder. it goes in gentler, ill dig out the number

give it 6 minutes at room temperature before you decide it has not dissolved, thats one data point

why does everyone say 2ml specifically and not 1ml

bac water

if the powder is on the stopper, tap it down before you add anything. it will still dissolve either way

MC

5mg in 2ml gives 2.5mg/ml, 0.25mg is 10 units. good for a starting dose
