Ness, listen. I know exactly how its produced from the gene sequencing of the bacteria through the gathering of the peptide chains and the chemical processes that are used. It is not fragile, thats big pharmacies attempt to put expirations and sell more buddy. And yes it is mass manufactured, demand has nothing to do with it ness. They create the sequence kick the bacteria off, feed in the precursors and harvest the peptides. After that there are chemical cleaning processes that go on etc.
If you want to discuss the actual chemistry about why its not as fragile as people think you tell me why that chain of 191aa is fragile and i will gladly explain in detail why it isn't. Its light sensitive yeah. But at room temperature it is good for extended periods of time.
Now if hard science isnt enough for you, i just got my igf tested on the elitropins that i won. Guess how they were stored for 4 months? At room temperature. Guess what my igf was, 503. Fairly respectable i would say, especially for taking it im instead of subq thus limiting the igf conversion and being off slin which would have upregulated it.
As for your knowledge from a friend or a chinaman, lol. You are in an engineering discipline ness, i know we took the same classes minus the chemistry specific stuff i took for the chem engineering degree. I would think your argument would be more detailed than a hearsay conversation. So inext time bring a gun not a knife to the gunfight buddy.
Love you too
