    I find it varies from batch to batch and vendor to vendor. My bride’s rat just started a new vial and found it burned. Mine started a vial from a different vendor and found it didn’t. I generally don’t have ISR’s anymore by injecting slowly. Was recommended by someone and oddly seems to work.

    Thanks. It would be nice if Randy would add a new template to the label generator for pen labels.

    Just wanted to share there’s a device called a intranasal dart. It’s a luer lock atomizer. It allows you to administer single doses without making a large batch in a spray bottle. If you reconstituted with BacWater you will want to add saline to your dose to avoid sting and burn of nasal passages from the BacWater. Any peptide with a molecule weight under 500 could possibly be administered as a nasal spray. https://youtu.be/1yMIigLFpI8?si=eWFn33uKZtJqKSeg

    @karakurilabs They don’t state anywhere that they’re non-sterile? [image: 1774520737577-be92b265-f0ae-439b-a8ad-3de563dddb8a-image.jpeg] They’re the same ones I use; I have ordered .5ml & 1ml.. no issues. They’re smooth and glide a lot better than others I’ve tried

    @Randy Thanks for the response. Higher dilution is a great idea. I'll definitely dilute the next batch as the current research amount is 10 units. I do count to 10 after pushing already, so I'm good there. I think I knew the answer on sterilization....don't even know why I asked...

    With regular pens, you have to press the plunger manually to dispense the product. Auto-injectors are spring-loaded, so you press and hold the button and the pen smoothly dispenses the product. I think they are both accurate. The problem that you describe is, imo, a separate problem. You are trying to dispense an amount that is barely greater than the margin for error. If you are injecting 3 units, and you lose .5-1 unit to inaccuracy in measurement or something else, and then you lose a little more due to dripping or failure to inject completely, you could lose a substantial amount of the product. If I inject 200mcg in 3 units and lose 1 unit, I am losing 66.6 mcg of the stuff. If I am injecting 200 mcg in 10 units and lose 1 unit, I am only losing 20 mcg. It might make sense to dilute you peptide to make it easier to get accurate and consistent measures.

    Hi all, just joined the forum and I must say it’s an incredible resource. However I am at the stage where I am looking around for pen supplies and pre sterilized pen cartridges, however I am having a hard time finding any which are located within the EU, does anyone here perhaps have any suggestions for a good supplier? Thank you all in advance.
