how much does sample handling on my end affect the number

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

update from 12 months ago: retested the same supplier, result came back better, logged both
what interests me is when the gap goes the same direction every time. once is noise, three times is a pattern

nice result

97.4 against a certificate of 96.8 is fine. the same supplier landing low four times in a row is a question, happy to be corrected

selection bias

right so how do you post a result so it is actually useful to somebody in a year

TT

a supplier disputing a result is rare here and it has never gone well for the supplier

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

has a supplier ever disputed a result posted here

TT

while im here i have never regretted spending the money on a test. i have regretted not testing twice

TT

while im here a result without a lot number and a purchase date is an anecdote with a pdf attached

*PeptideMeter not the other one

i told SWB about a result they would not have liked and they did not argue. credit where it is due

thats within range

how many lots do you need before you can say anything about a supplier
