Igtropin: Just so you guyz know

**InsaneInTheMembrane** · 08-23-2006, 01:48 AM

Hey guys,

I emailed a rep at Igtropin to ask about the stability of their product once reconstituted with their sterile water, hoping the rep would say that it would last longer than the stated 24 hrs... guess what? It doesn't

He replied saying that after 24 hrs the IGF STARTS TO DEGRADE!!! Although he didn't say by how much.

SO for all of you who are wondering about Igtropin's 100 mcg vials, unless you plan to use it all up within 24 hours, definitely take the time to get some vinegar/AA and start reconstituting with it! I would not even risk 48 hrs!

hope it helps
cheers

Sorry you confused me a little. So does it start degrading with just the aa or do you have to mix the aa and the bw for it to start degrading?

**InsaneInTheMembrane** · 08-25-2006, 03:07 AM

what I meant was, that if you reconstitute with JUST the sterile water that comes with it, it is good for only approximately 24 hours...after that, it starts to degrade..by how much., i dont know.

However, if you follow RedBaron and ss01's suggestions and use AA/Vinegar to reconstiture, then ACCORDING to them (red and ss) , it should last several weeks in the frisge.

cheers

thanks for the info.

one of my friend do it now only with igtropin water reconstitution.

This reminds me of all the marketing of supplements like Some shakes out there. "For best results use 3X a day" lol. Marketing at its best.

I too prefer to use AA or BW water with it. I ran Igtropin before but was injecting the entire 100mcg daily so it didnt effect me either way. IMO Igtropin is not even close to being worth what they charge. I now pay a third of that price and get just as good results if not better..

yeah I agree, it was the only IGF I could get my hands on (beggars cant be choosers..lol)...but next time around, I definitely gonna search for other brands that are much cheaper and equally effective..cheers

LOL, that's alright buddy. I'm basically just saying that it's great that we have other options out there. The Black Market can be a wonderful thing. Good thing LR3 isn't illegal to purchase so we can all enjoy it.

This was posted in another thread and it says that when mixed with AA IGF-1LR3 can be stored at room temp for 2 yrs....

Stability Data for LongTMR3IGF-I (Liquid Formulations)

The stability of a liquid solution of LongTMR3IGF-I was monitored for a period of two years at storage conditions of -20 C, +4 C, +22 C, and +37 C. The final concentration of LongTMR3IGF-I was in acetic acid. At various time points, samples were taken and compared to a lyophilized control (stored at 4 C). Listed below are the stability results for each respective storage condition.

? Storage Condition: -20 C

Biological Potency No Change up to 2 years
Immunological Activity No Change up to 2 years
Mobility of Protein No Change up to 2 years
Elution Profile by reversed phased HPLC No Change up to 2 years

? Storage Condition: +4 C

Biological Potency No Change up to 2 years
Immunological Activity No Change up to 2 years
Mobility of Protein No Change up to 2 years
Elution Profile by reversed phased HPLC No Change up to 2 years

? Storage Condition: +22 C (room temperature)

Biological Potency No Change up to 2 years
Immunological Activity No Change up to 2 years
Mobility of Protein No Change up to 2 years
Elution Profile by reversed phased HPLC No Change up to 2 years

? Storage Condition: +37 C

Biological Potency No Change up to 1 year
Immunological Activity No Change up to 1 year
Mobility of Protein No Change up to 1 year
Elution Profile by reversed phased HPLC No Change up to 1 year

? Conclusions

o There is no significant difference in the potency of LongTMR3IGF-I associated with the storage of the liquid formulation when stored at this range of temperatures.
o There is no evidence for loss of biological activity at any of the tested temperatures when stored as a liquid product.

That's ok buddy.

What I meant was that it's great to have other options not just one. Some people have to pay a lot more then others. Good thing LR3 isn't illegal and we can all get a good deal on it.
