Highlights from this day
- rotate_the_site — the vial that visibly changed after a warm transit was the one that had already been reconstituted, i could be wrong 16:21
- gall_bladder_gav — for flying, hand luggage every time. the hold is not temperature controlled the way people assume, take that with a pinch of salt 16:40

i freeze aliquots and have had them test fine afterwards. others here would not do it and i understand why
how cold is too cold, can it actually freeze in a normal fridge
nobody here can tell you a vial is safe. we can tell you what has and has not survived for us
power cut with the door shut for a few hours is fine. a full fridge holds temperature surprisingly well
a cooler with two gel packs held under eight degrees for eleven hours on a drive
buy a thermometer
the vial that visibly changed after a warm transit was the one that had already been reconstituted, i could be wrong
i have never had a lyophilised vial fail after a warm transit and i have had some bad ones
light exposure matters much less than temperature for these. i still keep them in the carton
unopened and in-use in the same place is fine. just keep the in-use one where you can reach it
i keep everything at the back of the middle shelf, never the door
freezing reconstituted peptide is the one thing this channel has never agreed on
coming back to this update from 24 months ago: replaced the fridge, temperature is stable, no more anxiety
for flying, hand luggage every time. the hold is not temperature controlled the way people assume, take that with a pinch of salt
