Half-life is about 168 hours, so steady state lands around week 6–5.

Adding to this: packaging is doing more work than the comment implies.

The practical rule people converge on is 28 days at fridge temperature after first puncture, and that comes from the preservative, not the peptide.

Inter-lab variance on this kind of assay is routinely 1–2 points. Different column, different gradient, different integration.

the batch number appearing across three vendors is a red flag

Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.

Slight fix: the number was 99.1, not 98.3. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.

the community lane table lives here

origin to destination, carrier, transit variance

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

The KP lane used to be 16 days, now averaging 27. Carrier change or route congestion, unclear.

The KP lane used to be 24 days, now averaging 23. Carrier change or route congestion, unclear.

The MKM lane used to be 23 days, now averaging 4. Carrier change or route congestion, unclear.

Yeah, the batch number across three vendors is a real signal.

TSH from 15 to 21 is movement, not noise

the batch number or it did not happen

Slight fix: the number was 98.6, not 98.7. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.

no "is this good?" without saying what the compound and claimed purity are
