Storage question
ad
Quick question, had a few vials of test c stored in my closet and I went to take them out a day ago and they were laying on their sides. Are they still good to go or will the test be affected because the rubber stoppers from the vials have been sitting in the liquid? The test is slightly yellow but as far as I can remember most test c is. Hope that makes sense And thanks for any help.

Just gotta say everyone on this site has been super helpful every time I’ve had a question and I appreciate it. Thanks gents
The rubber stoppers are designed to withstand the corrosion of most chemical solvents. Just keep the vials stored at room temp and out of direct sunlight.
Good to know, thanks blood
AlphaStrength50They should be good the only time I have heard of issues is if EO is the solvent used and there was contact with the rubber for long duration.
The solvent used is miglyol if that helps and they’ve been stored for 2 months, 3 tops.
You’re all good brother. I’ve had some lay on the side for months without an issue.
X2 Just check to see there aren't rubber bits floating around depending on the style of stopper - Although many I get now from UK labs have a clear strong rubber part that doesn't look like it would corrode at all!
Right on, thanks dude
Roger that, thanks dude
Shouldn't have much bearing on the degradation of the rubber. If you shake it and it looks like some cloudy is coming off the rubber I would worry. No particles? No separation? No milky?
Awesome, thanks dude
It’s only been about two months at the most. Thanks for the help amigo!
I had some on its side and it’s fine. I even put a drop on the bio trace swab at work. Said zero contaminates
Thanks, good info I appreciate it
They’ll be fine I reckon mate. As long as they weren’t stored like that for a year +
