Peptide Critic Community

I received my Thymulin order from BL, had a quick turnaround. Only thing I frowned at, and this probably isn't a big deal, as it sounds like this happens with pucks. The shape or lack thereof was all broken up, not like Southern Aminos, which came as a nice tight shape. I'll know more once I begin my research. The amount of emails I get from BL though, OMG, can I just browse a product without getting a gazillion of them lol I'll have to change my preferences to less of those if that option is avail.

Does any have any experience with L-Carnitine? I recently started a protocol of 500mg daily of L-Carnitine. Had it in the fridge, dosing 100units, IM The post injection pain after 1 week on both arms are insane. Im looking for options, subq, no fridge, vendor, Any information will help Thanks

A lot of info. I cannot speak for the Fox-04 or the SEmax Selamk , but Clouse the Lab Mouse has researched the Mots_C ,SS-31, and Pinealon. Also the DSIP but I can say Clouse feels grest and his wiskers perk up at the news Willy may provide , please keep us updated on Willy's experience.

@rain overfills are common. That’s one reason why coa’s are critical. Definitely recon at the tested level of 27 and not the 20 the vial was sold as.

@jamesfort I have plenty of confidence in the vendor but I ALWAYS filter. I had something similar happen on bpc157 (super ithcy) and realized the collagen peptides i was dumping in my coffee had something to do with it.

I have received small vials of compounded Tirz that was reconstituted with saline, but it also has other preservatives to extend its shelf life. I don’t know if that matters, or how long you are expecting your stuff to last. The 3 month vials seem to be using bac water. I have a kit coming from Nexaph today, so I am out of that market for a while.

@Randy Hospiria

@vpeptides and they have the paperwork to boot

@lindseytharaldson I personally have had better results with nasal sprays. Your mileage may vary

That logic falls apart pretty quickly if you follow it all the way through. If you can’t trust a sterile vial or filter because you personally didn’t verify the sterility, then you also can’t trust syringes, needles, media bottles, pipette tips, or basically any sealed lab consumable. Sterile consumables exist specifically so labs don’t have to individually test every item. They’re manufactured in controlled environments and sterilized in batches, then sealed. The entire research industry runs on that model. The real variable is the supplier. If you’re buying lab-grade consumables from reputable vendors, the risk is extremely low. If you’re buying random no-name stuff from questionable sellers, that’s a different conversation. But the idea that every sterile vial or filter is suspect unless you personally test it would mean you can’t trust any manufactured lab consumable at all, which obviously isn’t how research works.

@PeptidePete Thanks for sharing your experience, this put the final nail in the coffin on my researching of this. After I did more digging, I realized the risks are too high as my rat has RA, don't need any more problems.

@michaelatherley I got slupp and tesofensine pills from solid peptides. teso helps with adhd symptoms. both speed up metabolism. i am taking a break from both because they can and will cause insomnia. i took them for 6 weeks, when I resume i will be cutting the teso pills in half and taking every other day. i will probably start taking slupp on alternate days. I'm currently testing semax/ selank and pinealon nasal sprays for adhd.

Just did dose 3 at .500mcg. This time I got a tiny bit of nausea, but it was nothing honestly. Lasted about 10 minutes.

I just stuffed 10 vials from the same batch of 5amino in the same pen cart. Long boring process but its fine.

Randy....what is the research protocol for taking tesofensine?

Ok, I asked the Omniscience AI and it stated the obvious: Cloudiness indicates that the TA-1 molecules clumped together instead of dissolving. When you reconstituted the freezing cold powder, a significant portion of the Thymosin Alpha-1 molecules collapsed and clumped together (precipitated) because cold temperatures decrease peptide solubility. Because these clumps were large enough to scatter light, the 0.22-micron filter likely trapped and removed those un-dissolved clumps. Because an unpredictable amount of the peptide clumps was filtered out, your final solution is likely under-dosed. You cannot accurately know how many milligrams of TA-1 are left per milliliter. Because the solution was originally cloudy from being mixed while cold, the exact composition of your clear 5 mg/mL solution (10 mg in 2 mL BAC water) remains highly unpredictable.

@randy But how do you verify that it's not a fake AFI COA on a website (NTX peptide for example)? I don't see a way to validate with his website.

@randy where are you getting tb4?

@Ed-Warnicke oh, thank you! I will!

Anyone have experience with Retinalamin?
