Submitting a sample: the process end to end Replied, post #97 · Sourcing › Independent verification · 20 Jul 2026 · 0 likes Post #95 describes the usual case. This is about the unusual one. Repeat testing: if you want to verify the same lot a second time, testing with a different service…
Coming back to: Preparing for an appointment: one page, three questions Replied, post #19 · Clinical › Prescriber conversations · 20 Jul 2026 · 29 likes Taking post #16 at face value and following it one step further. Written summaries after an appointment are available in many systems and are worth asking for, because…
A 5 mg vial and a 0.25 mg dose: the arithmetic in full Replied, post #130 · Practice › Reconstitution · 18 Jul 2026 · 1 like Filter needles are worth considering if you are drawing from a glass ampoule and are pointless overhead for a stoppered vial. The trade is dead volume against…
Ultrasound and skinfolds: operator dependence in practice Replied, post #60 · Outcomes › Body composition · 16 Jul 2026 · 0 likes Ultrasound and skinfolds: I have looked for the primary source twice and failed twice. Either it does not exist or it is somewhere I do not know to look, and I would…

Fasting versus non-fasting and which tests care Replied, post #66 · Clinical › Bloodwork · 9 Jul 2026 · 1 like Fasting versus non-fasting would be much easier to settle if anyone reported the denominator. Almost nobody reports the denominator.
Request: a per-category review queue Replied, post #90 · Meta › Feature requests · 9 Jul 2026 · 18 likes Small request: let me filter Latest by whether I have read the topic. Unread exists as a tab and does not combine with anything else, so a busy category is either all…
Analytical identity of BPC-157: a 15-mer with a simple mass — does this still hold? Replied, post #34 · Compounds › Repair & healing peptides · 27 Jun 2026 · 1 like Publication patterns in the BPC-157 literature: a large proportion of the evidence comes from one research group. That is not necessarily wrong — one group can do…
CJC-1295 with and without DAC: what the modification does Replied, post #95 · Compounds › Secretagogues & GH axis · 27 Jun 2026 · 3 likes Where I part company with post #91, and it is a narrow parting. GHRH analogues versus ghrelin mimetics are often conflated but they are different mechanisms. GHRH…
