Switching to Serile Inj Water

Does make you wonder how many people make diy BAC but would still fail if tested; my guess is quite a few.

After the heat wave, I'll buy Petri dishes and some culture medium to run tests. We'll see how it goes.

If it were that easy to get, there wouldn’t be an entire thread saying otherwise.

UK - BAC water in the UK - some vendor responses

Hi all, Bit of a hassle getting Hospira BAC water in the UK. I've just put a pre-order in with https://www.midwiferysupplies.ca/ which came to £31.61 for 5x30ml bottles. Not a bad price if I can make them last. Got me thinking if anyone has found any good suppliers of BAC with good COAs in the...

You’re kind of proving the point while trying to disprove it. One UK reseller selling Hospira at a premium does not mean it’s broadly accessible. It's still very limited AND inconsistent supply at a premium.

Also, the UK is literally an island, and ordering from elsewhere in Europe is not always worth the cost, risk, or hassle.

Some people in that UK thread were knowledgeable and motivated enough to get Hospira, listing their sources.

Is it worth the cost/hassle? Obviously not for everyone. But buying lower-mg kits to accommodate sterile water's time limits also has a cost (paying more per mg for peptides).

I agree that well-tested BAC is a good compromise between Hospira's cost and the concerns with just sterile water. Like the mannitol in our peptides is a food source for bacteria.

Yes, I am aware of them, and I have got some from them . I am, though, still looking for more sustainable alternative solutions.

To be clear (and where a lot of the friction may be coming from), the American perspective is still almost completely against sterile water for recon, unless using very quickly within hours/days. So, for most of us Americans, that leaves alternative sources of BAC, rather than going the sterile water route.

All the GLPs from our compounding pharmacies have something like phenol or benzyl alcohol to prevent a bacteria party somewhere down the line. Due to using mostly reta, I have used tirz that was left in the fridge for over four months.

Regarding relatively affordable for Hospira, a mail-order subscription in the US for brand-name tirz from Eli Lilly is $299 to $449 per month (up to $5,388 USD per year).
