Dr.PulmRoch said:The pattern that distinguishes a bad batch from an exit is behaviour rather than product.
Agreed, with a caveat about community reputation: it is a lagging indicator. Reports arrive weeks after orders, so a supplier can look excellent for a month after quality has already changed.

This is exactly what I could not find anywhere else. Printing the relevant bit and taking it with me.

I disagree that testing history is decisive. It tells you what a supplier did when they were being watched. Continuity of behaviour under stress — a late shipment, a failed test, a complaint — is more predictive than any run of good results.

For anyone reconstituting dosing arithmetic peptides: the water-to-powder ratio determines your concentration. Here's my reference:
| Vial Size | BAC Water | Concentration | 0.25mg Dose |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5mg | 2mL | 2.5mg/mL | 10 units |
| 5mg | 2.5mL | 2mg/mL | 12.5 units |
| 10mg | 2mL | 5mg/mL | 5 units |
| 10mg | 3mL | 3.33mg/mL | 7.5 units |
More water = easier to measure small doses but vial runs out faster. Find the balance that works for your dose.
