The buchner funnel will make a good *pre* filter - in fact it will be quite efficient - however, don't try to sterilize with it unless you have a good way of sterilizing the funnel, the flask and the filter disks. That final 0.2 micron filtration is killer - no point running it through a...

And there's the joy of individual biochemical response variations ;P Some people explode on a compound - while others don't respond at all...*sigh* Presser, I'm assuming he just doesn't respond (or barely) to Winnie - I've seen it with other compounds with various people - same material ...2...

"Methylxanthines? I'm using those?" The simple answer is, unless you're living an entirely stimulant-free lifestyle, almost certainly yes. In the bad old days of yore, when certain supplement makers wanted to put a bit more kick into their pre-workout product, they would add ephedrine in...

L-Carnitine/L-Tartrate- Reduces Muscle Soreness, Improves Recovery, Improves Androgen Response, and Improves Blood Flow? There are not many supplements that I can recommend to bodybuilders, but ones of the few is L-Carnitine. L-Carnitine L-Tartrate (LCLT). LCLC first appeared on the...

I've always found the smell of test E to be very reminiscent of pure beeswax....(had a 50lb box at work of beeswax, so I got to know the smell :P) Doctor9

LOL - maybe you should just pay them off quarterly :P Doctor9

Do we even want to know? Internal Revenue Service...it's not a Service, it's a Remover ;P Should be the I.R.R. :P

Are you still final filtering with a 0.22 micron? The 0.45 is fast - because *very* small particles don't block it up...but those very small particles include bacteria. Trust me when I say if you do a 0.45 micron prefilter, your 0.22 will run *much* better, unless you have *really* heavy...

One of the most effective ways to be lean and strong for life is to familiarize yourself with the branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). A few of the most compelling reasons to know about BCAAs include the following: • BCAA metabolites were found to be a significant indicator of lean...

Well, X is an shares the same core structure with ampethamines - it's part of the same general family of compounds, which is why it *can* be risky, if precautions aren't taken. The other pathway that makes it help is that it also inhibits enzymes that would normally metabolize away some of the...

There are actually several suppliers out there for bottle top or even assembled filtration units. The assembled units are more expensive, but are sterilized, single use, so the risk of "bad cleaning" is avoided. Millipore, Pall, Celltech all carry lines of bottle top and filter units. In some...

I would agree 100 F is usually good - the problem is the membranes are very thin - so temperatures that would be supported by a bulk form of the plastic can soften the membrane to the failure point. Doctor9

If you don't mind the extra step - just the fact that you prefilter with a 0.45 will dramatically improve the lifetime of the 0.22 filter. For comparison - I like using bottle-top filters (0.22 micron). Without any prefiltering, I can get *maybe* 100 or so mL through on my standard unit. Even...

Now, here on Muscle Chemistry, we are supposed to all be adults, however, some of us have, or soon will have teenagers in our households. We all know Teens are better for taking advice from *anyone* other than their parents - so feel free to pull up this article for them when they don't pay...

Let's hope this comes true soon! I have people that I want to recommend buy from a sponsor....and he's still not around - they won't wait forever.... Doctor9

The BA and BB have a much lower boiling point than the oil - they will definitely start evaporating first - have seen it myself one time when I pre-heated the oil and added the ba/bb *after* . Was a bit too hot, so they started boiling when added to the hot oil, giving, nice white clouds of...

I generally don't comment unless I see someone who is about to get badly hurt - and then the Boy Scout in me can't just stand back and watch. Conversely, if someone *asks* for my help/opinion/advise, a) I'll take that as a compliment in that I guess I look like I know something :), b) I will...

Most of these statements were prepared with natural bodybuilders in mind, but the basic concepts still hold true, even if *enhanced* bodybuilders can take advantage of improved recovery ability and nutrient shuttling. Stuart McRobert LIE #1: TRAIN MORE OFTEN TO GROW MORE MUSCLE There may...

Just a reminder that exercise can help not only in a physical way, but for many people can make life worth living again. Robert Camacho I can’t pinpoint exactly when it began. Depression is strange that way. My family lived in Massachusetts. There...
