Moldy Gear?

That’s what is was doing too. Then I got sterile rubber top vials online to mix so I didn’t have to draw 3 times while hitting the ml ticks for each. Thought it could be easier.

You're not just mixing carrier oils but different solvents most likely and trying to keep stable over a time. I would keep each lab in a separate pin. Everyone has their own way of doing things.

Sorry for the late reply I’m not super active on forums if you ever need me I respond to emails with in minutes/hours at most times unless it’s sleep time.

I won’t mix different lab products or carrier oils personally. I would just use a draw needle for each and load all in one syringe then switch to a 23-25 gauge needle.

out of all the years I haven’t seen moldy gear that’s very unusual.

If I need to replace something no problem at all.

Mixing different compounds from different sources can change the ratios of solvents used to keep gear in suspension.

I wouldn’t even try to bring that gear back into suspension by heating it id toss it out, it looks milky not even so much as if it just crashed.

100% agree with you

Another note we also hate using rubber bottle stoppers they are susceptible to bacteria. That’s why we use the more expensive silicon ones.

Exactly what I was thinking when I saw this.

Shoot me a dm and I’ll get you replacements

Silcone is always the way to go

I’ve read that grape seed oil can go rancid which is one of the reasons most labs switched over to MCT oil years ago.

Usp grape seed oil has a shelf life of 12-18 months we turn our product every 1-3 months

If people would be happier with mct we will transition

 

[SavageLmuscle]

I’m also pretty postive Pfitzer the second biggest pharma company uses cottonseed oil in their test for trt and it also has a similar shelf life to usp grapeseed

Damn @SavageLmuscle mad props to this response.

I get basically make your blend. I shoot so much I’d me making the blends so often im not sure soemthing like that would be worth it.

He should trash it,but he mixed it,I believe lesson learned is don't mix it,it wasn't either of the sponsors fault

 

[John]

Yet again,@SavageLmuscle has offered to replace oils when it wasn't his gear that was fucked up.

 

[Dirtnasty]

I mentioned this to old guy at gym I generally give him better knowledge about gear as he’s from the oldent times where info wasn’t readily available and you just did what the guys at gym said to do. But as soon I said the color of gear he said it was probably grapeseed oil.

Appreciate the offer… But I’m guessing it’s user error. No need to replace anything due to my doing.

I’m just looking for people’s opinion maybe trying to learn something about what happened. That’s the best thing about this place sharing information, talking about it, and learning a thing or two!
