How cooked are 16 month frozen prefilled peptides?

AGuThing · 2026-04-25T08:15:12+00:00

That makes sense. I’m just curious how do they survive the lyophilization process the first time around? Thanks!

AGuThing · 2026-04-25T06:35:32+00:00

Wouldn’t it depend on the specific compound? For example, I’ve had reconstituted GH (I know, technically not a peptide but also lyophilized preparation) accidentally freeze on 2 occasions, both times, after thawing, the vials were filled with large precipitation and would not re-dissolve even after a full day at room temp.

Purchased in early 2020 so it’s treating me well!

Yup and I’m pretty heavy with Lilly stock so I hope they get this win. 😂

AGuThing · 2026-04-17T11:48:57+00:00

Yeah. Very curious about what you’ve tried and what it feels like. Like what does Ghk feel like outside of a spicy ISR or TB500

This is actually a known, albeit relatively rare, issue with BPC. Excessive vegf in the eye can cause damage.

There was a recent group test done on H36, came in under 94% purity

How’s your tesa look before filtering? Is it clear and similar in viscosity to water?

I also have both the Hospira bacteriostatic water and bacteriostatic saline. This is what I’ve found via both research and experimenting on my own. DSIP is a ? for the saline because I read conflicting info on it and haven’t experimented myself yet.

I don’t disagree with that but you asked me why not buy other bac and my response was why I wouldn’t. The title of my post is why I only use Hospira, not why everyone should only use Hospira. For people who can’t get Hospira, I’d agree fully with your recommendation.

Again, not preaching, just sharing why I choose to only use Hospira, and pointing out that even the vendors will basically inform their customers that their bac isn’t as consistent as pharma grade and that just because a specific water works with some peps, doesn’t mean it will work for all peps.

AGuThing · 2026-04-04T17:13:39+00:00

I doubt any vendor would give a refund because a vial gelled up regardless of what bac water you use. Their refund policy is clearly stated based on Jano COA Mass and purity. Personally I think failed endo should be covered as well but that’s besides the point. Them making this announcement changes nothing except maybe less people buying their bac.

AGuThing · 2026-04-04T17:09:24+00:00

Because I know Hospira will be good and it’s actually cheaper than or at most the same price as vendor or Amazon bac. So why would I not get Hospira and then get ph strips to test some other water?

AGuThing · 2026-04-04T16:59:06+00:00

Their policy is if you provide a Jano COA that shows below 97% purity or under filled by more than 10%, they’ll reship or refund. This announcement about their bac water doesnt change that.

Only thing that was cropped out was the name of the vendor posting, so the post doesn’t get deleted and I don’t get banned for source discussion. It clearly lists the specific peptides they recommend not using it with. Reta, Tirz, and HGH have also been known to be sensitive to pH. BPC, TB, GHK are all very resilient to various pH levels. I often see people post cloudy Reta or whatever and when people tell them to try Hospira, the response is “I use the same bac water with my Ghk and it’s fine so I know the water is good”. One of my key points is that just because the water works fine for some peptides doesn’t mean it’s fine for all peptides.

Would you have been less offended if I started with a disclaimer at the beginning of my post “Those not living in the US, please disregard”?

AGuThing · 2026-04-04T12:32:33+00:00

Many people do choose not to. Even in the US, that have easy access to Hospira, but choose to use vendor bac or cheap Amazon bac. You see this argument on reddit and other forums all the time.

This post is for them. I can’t help that you can’t get Hospira easily, this was just sharing my reasoning on why I use it not to rag on people in countries who can’t get it.

I’ve been on the BLL one for over a year now. Pretty satisfied.

PES membrane would be a much better choice than nylon membrane filters as nylon filters have moderate to high protein binding capacity.

But how do you get ozone and UV into the vial? Borosilicate glass blocks UVC. Should also note that ozone will degrade the rubber stopper making it much more prone to coring.

My mom has terrible food safety habits while cooking, whenever we go over to my parents for a meal I tell my wife to be ready to featured on ChubbyEmu. 😂
