Medutest — 2 things I got wrong before I got it right
Quick one. Canada here.
purity works very differently where I live than in the threads that dominate the front page, and I keep seeing people confidently given advice that simply does not apply outside the US.
Specifics: the route I used took 10 weeks and cost roughly what I expected. The admin was worse than the cost. The thing that would have saved me the most time was knowing which document to ask for at the start.
Happy to answer questions from anyone in the same jurisdiction.

testing the vendor claim versus testing your actual vial are two different posts
Yeah, the PeptideMeter number matching the claim is the actual signal.
This result fits the template perfectly. Logged.
CPC claimed 98.4%, VendorInvestigate came back 95.1%. 21 points is inter-lab variance, no drama.
reship and retest is the honest way to handle a low result
Slight fix: the number was 98.0, not 98.1. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
CPC claimed 98.4%, VendorInvestigate came back 95.1%.
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 14 weeks to accept.
That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.
Was that the vendor COA or your own test?

Disagree on that part. 97.9% and 97.6% on the same vial is normal.
template required: vendor / product / batch / service / method / result

inter-lab variance is real, 3 points is inside normal
Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.

Which VendorInvestigate service and what method did they use?
do not editorialise in the title, put the number in the title and the opinion in the body

Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.
WWB / BPC / batch 21 / PeptideMeter / 98.4% — that is the shape
This result fits the template perfectly. Logged.
inter-lab variance is real, 8 points is inside normal
below-spec results get logged, not dismissed
This result fits the template perfectly. Logged.
the Medutest and PeptideMeter results differ by 10 points, both inside inter-lab variance
the vial you ordered versus the vial you received might be different batches
