comment on [Sceptic] every new three-letter analog needs a data table before a hype thread in c/researchpeptides · 9 points · 2 days ago
Tracking number removed.
Adding to this: TB-500 is doing more work than the comment implies.
comment on [Speculation] what happens to the research-peptide supply chain if this lands in c/orforglipron · 34 points · 7 days ago
Came off after 11 weeks for financial reasons. Regained about a third over the following year. Back on now at a much lower dose.
comment on [Question] how do you verify identity when there is no reference standard in c/researchpeptides · 15 points · 10 days ago
This is correct. Name it precisely.
comment on what does 0.25 mean, 0.25 of what in c/newbiequestions · 5 points · 15 days ago
Not convinced. The evidence does not support that reading.
comment on [Discussion] the GH secretagogue story is 30 years old and mostly a cautionary tale in c/researchpeptides · 1 points · 17 days ago
That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.
comment on [Lab] SSA cagri — Medutest came back 97.4% against a claimed 96.2% in c/hplc · 34 points · 1 months ago
I am going to push back on this slightly.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify TB-500 in c/researchpeptides · 6 points · 2 months ago
What are you comparing it against though?
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify TB-500 in c/researchpeptides · 24 points · 2 months ago
purity and identity are two questions
comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about research peptides until somebody posts a number in c/researchpeptides · 36 points · 2 months ago
This is correct. Name it precisely.
comment on does orforglipron actually matter or is it forum lore at this point in c/orforglipron · 7 points · 2 months ago
Came off after 95 weeks for financial reasons. Regained about a third over the following year. Back on now at a much lower dose.
comment on switched from 1.0mg to 0.5mg and the sulphur burps got better, not worse in c/hplc · 1 points · 3 months ago
the gradient is doing the separation work, not the column alone

Edit to your parent would help — the concentration you quoted assumes one scenario and you have written another above it.

That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.
comment on someone explain identity to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/researchpeptides · 17 points · 3 months ago
not approved for human use, full stop
comment on help me understand chromatogram, I have read the wiki twice in c/hplc · 4 points · 3 months ago
Yeah, the chromatogram profile matters more than the headline number.
comment on someone explain identity to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/researchpeptides · 12 points · 3 months ago
supply-chain naming is a mess, ask for HPLC
comment on unpopular opinion: chromatogram is massively overrated in c/hplc · 14 points · 4 months ago
a round-robin on baseline integration would be genuinely useful
comment on stalled for 18 weeks at 7.5mg and I refuse to panic this time in c/orforglipron · 4 points · 5 months ago
This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.
comment on [Question] TB-500 — what am I missing here in c/researchpeptides · 6 points · 6 months ago
purity and identity are two questions
comment on the week one thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/newbiequestions · 19 points · 7 months ago
pens versus vials, same molecule, different price
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 55 weeks to accept.
