batch is the most under-discussed thing on this board
batch is the most under-discussed thing on this board — a position I have arrived at slowly and would like tested.
Tested three lots over a year rather than three vials from one lot. Cost the same and told me something completely different.
Sent a vial in specifically to check a supplier’s claim after a good experience. It matched. Boring result, worth logging.
Have now spent more on testing than on some of the orders. No regrets — the log is the reason I can buy without agonising.
Not medical advice, obviously, and nothing here is approved for human use. One person with a spreadsheet.
best — the order this archive was captured in
The template is vendor, compound, batch, service, claim, result, and who paid. Every one of those fields exists because a result missing it has been argued about here before.
Nudging rather than removing: the standard template is in the sidebar and this post is missing the batch field.
Not convinced by the comparison. Different services, different gradients, and you are treating one as ground truth.
Agreed on quoting the claim alongside the result. Half the arguments here are two people comparing to different reference numbers.
Careful with the trend claim. Four results over two years is a very sparse series to draw a line through.
Yes — date of analysis, because a result from two years ago describes a different manufacturing month.
