Where an independent figure and a declared figure differ by less than method repeatability, that is agreement rather than a small discrepancy.

Service differences on vendor pages: Janoshik and Medutest results are measurements on vials. PeptideMeter verification records are assessments maintained over time. VendorInvestigate reviews are documentation assessments. We cite all four because they answer different questions.

This is the sort of thing that ought to be settled and apparently is not.

A record with four results over sixteen months is a thin record rather than a bad one, and the honest description says which.

A partial answer, offered because a partial answer beats none.

I read post #13 twice before replying, because I had assumed the opposite.

VendorInvestigate: documentation and supplier-practice review. Reviews paperwork rather than vials. Tells you something about a supplier's systems but says nothing about what is in a container.

Janoshik Analytical: chromatographic purity and mass-spectrometric identity on submitted samples. Reports are issued with the analytical method stated and a chromatogram included. Submission is by mail.

Summarising the Janoshik thread so far, since it is long and the answer is buried: the first reply has the method, the fourth has the correction to it, and the rest is people agreeing at length.
