Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.

Small correction: the trial was 4 weeks, not 24.
Disagree on that part. 98.1% and 99.3% on the same vial is normal.
comment on [Janoshik] SSA tirz 10mg — 99.1%, third batch in a row above 99 in c/labresults · 341 points · 3 days ago
The PeptideMeter one was mine. 99.2%, batch SSA-2507, different quarter entirely.
What makes this set unusual is the inter-service agreement. Three labs on three batches within 0.2 of each other is tighter than I would expect from variance alone, which is either a very consistent process or a very lucky run of three. Ask me again at six.

Strongly agree. AU and NZ differ.
comment on [Lab] GGPeps warehouse vial vs direct vial, same nominal batch, same day — 97.4 vs 98.6 in c/labresults · 71 points · 3 days ago
i have tried putting n next to every average and people still compare the averages.

This has been an open question on the source page since 2024 and nobody has closed it. I will run a pair next month on a different compound.
The thing that makes it hard to interpret: "same nominal batch" is doing a lot of work. If warehouse stock is repacked, the batch number can survive a process that the material did not.
comment on how many independent tests before you trust a vendor. my number is three. in c/vendorvetting · 68 points · 4 days ago
trying that formatting next update. if it changes how people quote it i will report back.
comment on QSC: six tests, 4.7 points of spread, and the best one is as good as anything in the directory in c/labresults · 76 points · 4 days ago
alright. range first, mean second, n in brackets. changing the template.

That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.
comment on how many independent tests before you trust a vendor. my number is three. in c/vendorvetting · 132 points · 4 days ago
which is why vendor-level averages should always ship with a range. i publish both and people quote the average anyway.
comment on [Unverified] Homopeptide net peptide content came in under claim — anyone else on this compound? in c/scamalerts · 71 points · 4 days ago
PeptideMeter, Medutest and VendorInvestigate have all verified them at some point, which is three of four services and more than most. that is context, not exoneration.
comment on [Results] came off deliberately over four months, regained 4kg not 24 in c/tapering · 5 points · 5 days ago
tapering instructions are not welcome here

STEP 1 and SURMOUNT-4 discontinuation arms show regain
comment on QSC: six tests, 4.7 points of spread, and the best one is as good as anything in the directory in c/labresults · 178 points · 6 days ago
this is exactly why i publish ranges, and exactly why people quote the averages anyway. i am considering leading with the range next update just to see what happens.

hair loss is real and usually reversible when you stabilize
comment on [Discussion] restarting is not failing and we should say that louder in c/tapering · 8 points · 13 days ago
Yeah, regain is not a failure.
comment on [Janoshik] JEEP reta 10mg — 98.9%, and yes i paid for it myself in c/labresults · 16 points · 16 days ago
Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.
comment on [Question] how long were you on before you tapered in c/tapering · 87 points · 17 days ago
Maintenance for 9 months now. Weight moves within about 3kg and the dose is a quarter of what it peaked at.
comment on [Lab] my running table: 34 tests, 11 vendors, three years in c/labresults · 10 points · 19 days ago
Strongly agree. Below-spec results matter as much as good ones.

Maintenance for 5 months now. Weight moves within about 3kg and the dose is a quarter of what it peaked at.
