Is the Janoshik screening for contamination worth it ?

I like to see everything as a risk potential; with these peptide orders the risk is mainly that you get something less pure or even something different. Contamination is very rare, and I understood that Jano implied it's not needed, but the risk is never 0.
From seeing his interviews I am focusing on maintaining sterility of an opened vial from the first use. From what I've learned here on the filtering topics I am also filtering everything.

I don't care too much about purity unless it's degradingly rapidly... There's a link somewhere on this forum that name brand only has to be 97%. Purity to me is more like a benchmark saying they're trying.
A bunch have failed sterility, the smart thing to do is just filter it every time. A filter is like $1, an extra $1 per vial won't kill anyone.
The important part of testing for me is mass. So many come overfilled, I see 10-20% pretty regularly and we've had cases where it was almost double. I'd be pretty miserable if my dose was double what I expected.

Purity testing over 99% says nothing about contaminants, sterility, etc. The vast majority of material in the vial is excipients and not the API we care about. It's just about how degraded or not the API is.
Something might fall behind a shelf in a hot warehouse and get discovered years later and be 85% purity, but that won't say it's any more or less likely to be contaminated than something that is 99.93%

My guess would be they messed up and sent you overfilled 15's (I'm assuming this is tirz?) since that's also a standard size. Sterility fails aren't uncommon, most don't even check for it. I'd want a replacement of refund for the underfilling though.

Can you break this down for us? What substance was submitted for testing and what was the mass suppose to be? Were samples taken from the same kit? Could a submitter have sent in the wrong vial like from a 15mg kit accidentally?
Give us a summary please.
I wouldn't trust half the labs Finnrick is using... just me.
728D that I sent came back at 17.5mg
There was another finrick report found that tested at 16.8 ( not related to our test ).
728W was 33, 33, 38.
Jano wouldn't specify which vial tested at 17.5mg so the US Donor sent another vial to peptidetest for testing, came back at 38.
All different vials.
I eventually explained to jano we weren't abusing the system and the 17.5mg vial is what I got as RT30.
It was my vial, 728D that tested at 17.5.
Sterility failed on 728W

It's not just you. Finnrick is a joke.

Hi Friends,....
Can anyone tell me the procedure for testing --- Do you send in a Whole bottle of AAS or just 1 cc --- How does it work?
🤔
