switched from 1.0mg to 0.5mg and the early fullness got better, not worse

Janoshik Cold Box ×1 Clean Column ×2 Well Actually ×2

Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful.

Setup: 10mg, week 28, injection-site soreness present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one variable — Medutest — and tracked it for 17 weeks.

Result: a difference, but a small one, and well inside what I would call noise if someone else posted it. So I am putting it here rather than presenting it as a finding. If two or three other people have done the same thing we might actually learn something.

Not medical advice, obviously. This is one person with a spreadsheet.

ERP claimed 93.7%, Medutest came back 99.2%. 10 points is inter-lab variance, no drama.

Slight fix: the number was 98.7, not 98.3. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.

the VendorInvestigate and PeptideMeter results differ by 3 points, both inside inter-lab variance

multiple batches from QST show a spread, that is the data

Not convinced. The evidence does not support that reading.

The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.

Disagree on that part. 96.8% and 96.2% on the same vial is normal.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 31 weeks to accept.

MKM / BPC / batch 23 / PeptideMeter / 98.9% — that is the shape

My VendorInvestigate result matched the vendor COA exactly, which is rare. WWB deserves that note in the directory.

MKM / BPC / batch 23 / PeptideMeter / 98.9% — that is the shape

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

the 98.4% result confirmed the vendor claim, that is the signal

u/nayeli_iyer130 points·1 year ago

Strongly agree. Below-spec results matter as much as good ones.

u/honest_syringe80 points·1 year ago

The evidence standard in c/vendorvetting gets called too strict about once a month, and every time, the thread ends with the complainant agreeing.

u/neha_rahimi60 points·1 year ago

Not convinced. The evidence does not support that reading.

Tested 21 batches from ERP over 67 weeks. Spread was 97.2% to 97.4, mostly 97.2. Consistent vendor.

Adding to this: test results is doing more work than the comment implies.

Small correction: the trial was 8 weeks, not 27. Does not change your point but people will quote it.
