Benzyl alcohol does NOT act as a sterilizing agent in bac water. Bac water does NOT sterilize what you mix with it. It simply slows the growth of bacteria and fungi in what you mix it with. This is why many people recommend filtering the magic chinese peptides when you reconstitute, as an attempt to sterilize them.
Hospira is made/owned by Pfizer. I cant speak with authority on the sodium-based BACs, I suspect they have a similar function but different use case than alcohol based.
Thanks. I didnt notice the Pfizer ones are the Hospira because the text that says Hospira is small on the vial photo on the product page I was looking at
sodium bicarb water is for a different purpose. Definitely don't use it with glp1s as it doesn't react well.
I *think* they mean the 2 types of Bacteriostatic water: Bacteriostatic water with the pink top that uses alcohol and Bacteriostatic sodium chloride water with the green top that uses NaCl & alcohol as the agents. Pfizer makes both versions.
Looks like you have some over extrusion going on with your 3d printer.
I did not print that but I do have similar issues. Can you advise how to fix?
Calibrate your extrusion multipliyer (aka flow rate). Without knowing your printer, slicer, and printer firmware, that is about all i can provide
Banbu A1. I supposedly calibrate before each print. Seems to take forever to go through its little routine. Firmware is current. And the print plate is intermittently cleaned with dish soap and cleaned every time with isopropyl alcohol.
I'm not familiar with those printers, but I guarantee you that the flow rate is not calibrated before each print. You will have to find someone familiar with that printer type.
Yes. This exactly! Both NaCl and NaHCO₃ (sodium bicarbonate/baking soda) are salts but I am assuming the bac water with sodium has NaCl. But either way , bottom line is that we don't order either for use with GLPs. We order the one with only benzyl alcohol.
I’ve used the NaCl with no problem, just happen to buy it by mistake when I first started. People use the big bottle of bicarbonate to change the ph of peps, mostly NAD+ if it’s not “buffered.” (Idk what all they use to buffer it.)
I've been using Bac Water from XCE back before they disappeared and have had zero issues. Will happily re-up with QSC when I need more.
Benzyl alcohol will not evaporate. It evaporates much slower than water. Water will be gone long before BA evaporates.
Yes same. The one with sodium is called isotonic and is very close to blood salt level. Less of a shock to the system. And the mannitol filler in your Tirz, is like sugar, so your injection mix is close to an IV drip. And the sodium version also has benzyl 0.9%. I was buying 3ml bac vial on Amazon from Stat Lab 10 x 3 ml for $30 to reduce waste, and was planning to begin filtering them. What a pain, time, risk and $$. I used the unfiltered Stat Lab for up to 9 weeks before my first ISR. I decided that Hospira NaCL at $3-4 per vial is a good bet to use the same bac vial for 45+ days without filtering, until my next ISR.... Am not an RN, and understand filtering is probably a better choice.
That was 100% a joke. It's basically pure ethanol- as in, liquor. Do NOT do it.
Oh, thank you!!!😄God bless you!🙏
I am unfortunately very familiar with consuming Everclear from my college days - not through the veins though, just through the mouth
Right! 😆
Years ago, I made edibles for me and my girlfriend while at her house party. (We snuck the toaster oven into her room and made just enough for the two of us because we were stingy early 20's and already drunk enough to think no one would smell it if we opened the window.) I left the room and was greeted by someone handing out shots, and me being me, I don't say no to alcohol. Grabbed it and swallowed it down without a single question.
Oh my God!!!!Thank God you lived AND learned!!😄😄😄
I used to juggle fire torches in high school and spit fire. Everclear was always preferred but if we couldn't get any we had to resort to kerosene.
Where do you get your's from?
Last time we spit fire my friend caught his beard. 😬
Never buy bac from Amazon.
