Kit of Lipo-C ruined?

[pavlovs]

I ordered a kit of Lipo-C from Nexa, it arrived yesterday. I opened it and it looked fine. Liquid was clear. So, I (stupidly) put it in the refrigerator. Today, all but one vial looks like it has formed crystals at the lid, and there are clumps floating. I warmed a vial and it looked much butter but still had a few particles floating. After filtering it, the vial looks clean and clear.

So, is it safe to use now? Or should I toss the kit and call it a lesson learned. This is the first time I have ever ruined a peptide, and I'm embarrassed. I knew better.

The crystals are probably the amino acids and should dissolve as it warms up. I would definitely still use it. That stuff ships in the winter and gets colder than your fridge. Everyone has their own risk tolerance. You need to gauge yours.

I have a pretty high risk tolerance, but I am also utterly ignorant about chemistry. Do you think I should leave the other nine vials alone, assuming most of the particles do dissolve, and not filter them until I am ready to use them? I know that introducing air starts the degradation process. What are your thoughts? If the vial I filtered stays pretty and clear then it is safe?

Just store it all in a cool, dark place and it will last as long as you are taking it regularly without going bad. Clean the stopper before and after each use. It will be fine.

I have never filtered Lipo-C, but don’t discourage it. I don’t think it can hurt.

Thanks so much, I appreciate your response!

i'll take It off you hands at 50 cents a vial.

I think that you're supposed to keep it in the cupboard away from light.

I believe that you're supposed to keep lipo c at room temperature in a cupboard. Always keep the self sealing port clean and sanitary.

Might want to check it and see what it smells like. Most Chinese “Lipo-C” is colored water… Defy Medical sells it at a good price and it’s real.
