Reconstitution of IGF ?

[munsterpd]

I got the 10 vials of IGF at 100 mcg's per vial. I figured I wouldn't have to use the AA to recon. it with all the small vials. My question is can I recon. with Bac. Water and it will keep in the fridge for a week? I've also heard 24 hours but if I'm only using 50 mcg a day 3x a week 24 hours won't be good enough. I think the 24 hours might only be sterile water without the .9% BA?

After a search here I've found the following views;

Bac. Water is good for a week but doesn't work well with China IGF ?

Sterile water works great but only lasts 24 hrs. I only want 50mcg pwo 3x a week soooo, I need a better mix.

And also I found this one that sounds promising;
12 iu's distilled white vinegar with 88 iu's sterile water per 100 mcg IGF ? I'm guessing the Vinegar is like AA and keeps it stable longer?

I got the small vials, 10 per kit to avoid using AA.

There are many differing opinions on this subject. I use AA ONLY and don't bother with the bacteriostatic water at all, even for injecting. The AA doesn't really hurt anyway.

I think the concensus right now is to use AA regardless of the size of the bottle that you have. Unless you're going to use 100mcg right away.

At this point, it's very uncertain as to the stability of anything else and how fast IFG degrades.

I have both the 100mcg vials and 1g vials. Will use AA with both and just mix in BW just before injection to ease the sting/tissue damage of AA at 2:1 ratio.

Sounds like a plan, thanks Finny.

sorry double post ... had a problem with my connexion there.

Doesn't really matter that much but it's .6% ... and try to get some NaCl, over BW.

I always add some AA wether mine is 100mcg vials or 1000mcg vial ... seeing that I don't refridgerate my igf-1. I don't wanna risk any stability issues here.
Also, I always add NaCl (2:1) preinjection 1/ sting 2/ tissue necrosis.

As long as, I don't see some study conducted by a reliable biopharm. company, I'll stick to .6% AA, especially at room temp.

YES! Mixing with BA over NACL shows NO difference in overall blood concentrations BUT BA does lessen the "sting" quite significantly over NACL.

For osmolarity reasons, I'd rather go with NACl ...
