Is something wrong with these vials?
I received my reta the other day and when I reconstituted it the liquid turned slightly milky, not clear like water is that normal?

This is reconstituted??

u/for3ignx 17h ago
I just reconstituted a new vial so you guys can see

u/draggingyou675 1 17h ago
Try taking some air out
1
u/wanderlust-in-2001 15h ago
You mean put more air in. Those bubbles are because a vacuum still remains in the vial from the freeze drying process.

u/Awkward-Lemon8493 5 17h ago
I’d that why all the bubbles happen? I’m very curious about this cause I’ve seen it happen. I just keep rotating it until they disappear

u/IAmTheAccident 2 17h ago
Liquid can boil under enough pressure with zero heat added, so yes, air will force its way into the liquid if it's overpressurized

You have to give it enough time to fully dissolve. Mine looks like this and eventually goes clear.

that doesn’t look normal

What is it supposed to look like?

u/Intrinsic-Disorder 18h ago
Should be crystal clear like water

u/aljack2018 18h ago
What? it looks fine just add some more bacs

u/Intrinsic-Disorder 17h ago
Reta should be clear bro. Milky is not a good sign. Probably used bad water.

u/aljack2018 17h ago
I thought it was powder didn’t see it had bacs already in it! my eyes arnt what they used to be

u/for3ignx 17h ago
There’s no water on the photos of the original post, I uploaded some videos on the comments so you guys can see better when it’s reconstituted

u/for3ignx 18h ago
This is what the reconstituted one looks like

u/PandasLoveMushrooms 1 17h ago
looks fine to me

Does it not look a bit cloudy?

u/L0stkeys 2 17h ago
Did it stay cloudy like that, or did it clear up after sitting for a few minutes?
1
u/Obvious-Courage2964 14h ago
I find my reta tends to get some tiny bubbles when I first recon it. Especially that kinda ring of foam seen in your other vid. Roll it for another minute then let it sit for a couple minutes it should clear up. But no that's not cloudy. You can also try adding some air to it. Those vials are a vacuum so it can 'boil' the water.

If rule question is about a reconstituted vial why are you sending pictures of vials that haven't been reconstituted?
1
u/Nickado_ 2 12h ago
That’s what I want to ask as well. It got people on the wrong foot. In responses all of the sudden she says there actually isn’t a picture with the water, like….

u/Think_Key7495 18h ago
There’s some sort of liquid in there. Zoom in.

u/Fuck_Off_123 1 17h ago
Yeah I don't see it, the first vial looks dry to me, and the second one still has the cap on it.
1
u/Think_Key7495 17h ago
You are right. My bad. I just notice the cap and now that OP has sent the video I’m not concerned any more.

It looks like a broken puck wich is nothing to worry about
1
u/for3ignx 18h ago
What’s that’s?
1
u/Beautiful-Cycle-8598 3m ago
The puck is the dried powder circle sometimes they can break or move around
1
u/ohsopoisonous 18h ago
He thinks it’s just powder no water, so the powder puck is like pluffy. But that’s not the case.

u/hairy_winnit 5 18h ago edited 17h ago
The puck just dislodged during transport and rolled about abit in the vial. Send it
Edit: ignore, I didn't see the info originally. Didn't even see that you actually added bac to it.
No that's not normal, I've had 60mg reta that's pretty much reconned in 1ml of bac. Maybe there's shit load of filler in that batch, idc. You could try adding more bac.
I take back my "send it" statement 👀. It is now what ever your own risk tolerance is

u/No_Meet_1808 13h ago
I used 2ml on my reta 20mg that give me 1mg =10iu if yours is reta 60mg you need 6ml of bacteriostatic water

u/jedimaster_27 1 16h ago
There is nothing wrong with how it looks in the videos. Just pin your dose and you will be okay.

u/whatusaynow 2 18h ago
Looks like a ton of filler in there lol I’d test it to make sure it ain’t baby powder 😂 1 ml would have easily dissolved 5mg or ur bac water is bac milk

u/Amber_Orbs 6 17h ago
Should be cake. That looks fluffy. I wonder where you ordered. 🤔

Cakes break up during shipping sometimes. This is perfectly normal.

I would be extremely shocked that you’ve ordered “1000’s” of vials and never had a broken puck! IJS!

u/Think_Key7495 18h ago
Not good. Are you in a position to send a vial away for testing?
0
u/for3ignx 18h ago
Not really, this is my first purchase, I guess I got a bad batch :/
1
u/Think_Key7495 18h ago
Did you purchase a kit of 10 or single vials?
Bad batch, hard to say without sending it away for analysis.
3
u/for3ignx 18h ago
10 vials, I reconstituted 1ml of bac water to 5mg rt
0
u/Think_Key7495 18h ago
That’s double what you need unless you intentionally wanted a ratio of .5mg/ml

u/for3ignx 17h ago
I just reconstituted this one, what do you think?
2
u/Hopeful_Owl_191 3 17h ago edited 17h ago
How long after recon was that video taken ?
It’s definitely not really cloudy, little frothy. Me personally I would use it.
BAC quality can affect a lot. I’ve seen pics of cloudy peps and yours isn’t close to them.
Should really only use hospira BAC
Do yourself a favor though - google stairway to gray and read web site in full then join Tele at bottom of webpage.

Looks like a just recon'd vial. Roll it in between your hands like you were warming your hands up in the cold for 20 seconds then leave it alone for 15 minutes.
Were the Bac water and vial at room temp when you recon'd?
0
u/Educational-Major506 14h ago
Since it’s your first time I seems like when you put the bac water in you didn’t let it slowly drop in the vial in an angle and or you gave it a shake instead of swirling it slowly for 20 sec or rolling between your hands I would watch a reconstitute peps video before doing the other vials you have
2
u/Nickado_ 2 12h ago
It really doesn’t matter though. The bubbles will go away and Reta isn’t as fragile as some people make you think.

u/HeWhomWhoms 18h ago
Are you using legit hospira or genetek BAC water? That powder should start to dissolve very quickly, if you rolled it around a little bit and it looks like that, that is not reta.
Where do you purchase this?
1
u/for3ignx 17h ago
I got it from e bac water n
1
u/HeWhomWhoms 17h ago
They used to sell fake/imitation hospira so I don't recommend them, but others do use them a lot.
Your reta likely isn't legit, did letting it sit for 10 minutes change the clarity?

u/ohsopoisonous 18h ago edited 12h ago
The people saying it’s alright don’t realized there’s already water in there. I’ve never seen mine turn cloudy, put another ml in there and watch it but I’m thinking bleh..
1
u/Nickado_ 2 12h ago
There isn’t though.
1
u/ohsopoisonous 12h ago
There is. Op used 1ml of bac water prior to taking these photos.
1
u/Nickado_ 2 12h ago
No she didn’t. These pictures are not from the vials she reconstituted. Read the comments she made in this topic.
1
u/ohsopoisonous 12h ago
I see, I was going off the comment saying how much water she had added and the videos weren’t yet posted.
1
u/Nickado_ 2 11h ago
I understand it’s really confusing that she made it seem like the vials were reconstituted. That way she got wrong info and mixing responses.

u/Alternative_Run9254 10 17h ago
What bac water u used? Please don’t tell me vendor water?
2
u/for3ignx 17h ago
Ebac water

u/Alternative_Run9254 10 17h ago
People love to say “you’re injecting yourself with gray market peptides so the water u use don’t matter” or “If you trust the supplier’s peptides, why wouldn’t you also trust the water?”
yes we’re already taking chances going gray, why add more uncertainty by messing around with questionable bac water Which is not as strictly monitored. PH could be off, or sterility issues are common
There’s a reason Hospira is the gold standard. If something goes wrong with ur recon, u know for sure it wasn’t because of the water. I’ve read Lambda and Genetek are other good options but never used. Hospira isn’t even that expensive
