Highlights from this day
  • noct.titrate — the honest limits: hobby chain of custody is weak and any result here should be read with that in mind 02:44
  • noct.titrate — the results in this channel skew because people test when they are suspicious. that is selection bias and it is real, ill dig out the number 02:59
  • vialkeeper — sorry to jump in how many lots do you need before you can say anything about a supplier 05:05

the honest limits: hobby chain of custody is weak and any result here should be read with that in mind

lot        bought    purity   assay/label
A-2418     2025-03   99.1%    9.6 / 10mg
A-2601     2025-08   98.7%    9.8 / 10mg
B-0114     2026-01   99.3%    9.4 / 10mg
B-0329     2026-04   98.9%    9.9 / 10mg

if you are testing to settle an argument you will not settle it with n of 1

the results in this channel skew because people test when they are suspicious. that is selection bias and it is real, ill dig out the number

my result contradicts the supplier certificate, do i tell them

lot        bought    purity   assay/label
A-2418     2025-03   99.1%    9.6 / 10mg
A-2601     2025-08   98.7%    9.8 / 10mg
B-0114     2026-01   99.3%    9.4 / 10mg

follow up i told GL Biochem about a result they would not have liked and they did not argue. credit where it is due, i could be wrong

NT

log the boring results too. a channel that only records failures produces a false picture

TO

update on the earlier thing anyone had a result they think was a lab error rather than a bad vial

NT

follow up quantity testing is usually a separate line item and it is the one worth paying for, i have it written down somewhere

GA

certificate said 98.6 and the independent came back 98.1, is that a problem

genuine question is a purity-only test worth the money if underfill is the common failure

NT

i had a result i am fairly sure was a handling error on my side and i logged it as such

TO

do the results in this channel skew because people test when suspicious

TO

sample handling on your end absolutely affects it. draw cleanly, ship fast, do not let it sit warm

NT

assay under label with good purity means you got less of the right thing. that is a fill problem, not a synthesis problem
i told GL Biochem about a result they would not have liked and they did not argue. credit where it is due

slightly off topic but a single sample tells you about a single vial. that is genuinely all it tells you

VI

sorry to jump in how many lots do you need before you can say anything about a supplier

⚠️15

if the vial has been through a bad transit you are testing the transit as much as the supplier

does a bad result on one lot condemn the whole supplier
