someone explain Janoshik to me like I have not read a paper in years

Vendorbranch of 10 comments

someone explain Janoshik to me like I have not read a paper in years. I would rather ask a basic question now than get this wrong quietly for two months. A certificate with a purity figure and no method line is not falsifiable. You cannot reproduce it, you cannot check it, and it tells you nothing about how the…

consistency across lots beats one spectacular result

About c/vendorvetting

The community due-diligence desk. Vendor experiences, independent third-party test results, shipping and reship records, and the boring paperwork that separates a supplier from a story. Every substantive claim is expected to carry a receipt: an order id, a dated screenshot, or a test report from Janoshik, Medutest, PeptideMeter or VendorInvestigate.
