I was curious how testing was going on the latest batches. Thanks!

Do you know how costy would it be to have this whole synthesis setup ?
u/MisterYouAreSoDumb
I would only be guessing, but I would imaging $500K to $1M.

Still impure. So far all 6 batches this year, from multiple suppliers, has been impure. It's a solvent residue with a carbonyl group, which is giving an extra peak at about 1,730-1,740 cm-1. HPLC shows the impurity is a

Ohh, I am giving them more than feedback. Trust me. They just do not seem to give a shit, because MK-677 is in such high demand. They know if I reject it, someone else will buy it. I've even had people PMing me asking if

Well we don't have the equipment or expertise to do our own synths yet. So for now I am at the mercy of other labs. I am still working on it, though. I will keep pushing them.

I did not know you went to the hospital. This shit is dangerous, and it's shitty that other vendors just do not care.

I would bet a lot of money they are not doing jack shit for testing. We just tested some of their CJC-1295 non-DAC, and it was not a clean read on the HPLC, even though our CJC was a 98.92% using the same methods. I am h

I wish it were that simple. It's not only the equipment, but the space, expertise, synthesis methods, precursors, etc. Then there is no way we'll be able to do it for the same per mg price as an established lab. Perhaps

Freelance chemists? Not sure if that is a thing.

Benzyl chloroformate becomes phosgene gas when exposed to water. That was used as a chemical weapon in WWII. I would probably avoid doing that.

Ohh, ok. So if you keep the temperature down, it will only release HCL fumes. Still dangerous, but not as bad as phosgene. I would think a rotary evaporation would be better to get rid of the residue, though. It's boilin

Even research would be thrown off by a shitty synth with toxic impurities. There is no excuse.

I have not run the numbers. The upfront cost to build a lab capable would be pretty high. Then I would still need to find a competent chemist, and secure precursors.

Yeah, I have been considering that one.

Haha, I guess. I'd need to find space for it too, because we have outgrown even our new facility. I've got 24 employees now, and we have used pretty much every inch of space we have. We are also starting to get automated

Once Ceretropic is up on our new server, and on a reliable card processor, we'll be releasing a ton of new stuff. I am just waiting on that to happen, before we do too many new Ceretropic products.

If it was made in March 2015, then that was before all these quality issues started. They must just not go through it fast, or they are giving you an old COA. I'd call the lab to confirm the analysis at least. Superior
I apologize for falling off the grid completely for the past couple weeks. I was out of the country on vacation. I had planned on logging in and staying active during my time outside the US. However, my grandfather passe
It might be down for good. I don't know for sure yet. I am working on it, though. We will not be adding any new products without reliable processing. Sad part is that we were about to start releasing some new compounds w

Replying to tidus_the_one · So this is a tested batch, pure and all? Been waiting for god knows how long for it to come back to ceretropic. Is there someone from staff who can confirm it? /u/MisterYouAreSoDum…
Yes, I would never sell something that I was not sure was pure. I mean, we were literally out of stock for years. If it's in stock, it means we are sure. It took us a long time to finally get a pure batch again, but this
Replying to Malician · This is so depressing. I say this as someone who's put 1-2k into buying stuff from Ceretropic, who is currently buying from Ceretropic using crypto, and recommended it and ND to s…
I know it might seem depressing, and I honestly felt that way for a long time as well. However, there is another way to look at this. We've accomplished some amazing things. We are light years ahead of where we were when
