IGF storage

**Towel** · 12-14-2007, 02:32 PM

I thought that you can store IGF at room temp for almost 2 years and still be good to use. If mixed with acetic acid. But now I hear different things. I am kinda confused

Each vial is only going to last for 3-4 weeks so..what do you guys think?

There's so much info out there (most of which is conflicting) that it's hard to tell what's what anymore.

From what I understand, IGF is only stable at room temp. for prolonged periods of time while it is still in powdered form.

Also, AA may work well for some brands of IGF, but for the IGF sold by ARR it's best to use what you're given and to follow the directions indicated with the product (or in this forum).

yes and also the product comes with acetic acid. But on the packaging it says it should be kept cold when mixed. Actually I wouldn't care less, i would just put it in the fridge and better be safe than sorry. But the thing is my parents don't like the idea of using gear........so i kinda got to hide my stuff. Well it's winter so I think I am going to put them between my double window.

I know I never got any AA with mine. In fact, the threads I've read with recon instructions make no mentions of AA coming with the product and actually discourage using AA to recon ARR's IGF-1 LR3. The product listing doesn't mention anything about AA either. Maybe you have something different. Are we talking about IGF-1 LR3?

Hahaha, I understand the parents/prying eyes thing...I have 3 roomates, one of which is an ex-gf...

Take a look at this site.

Browse around and you may find what you're looking for. Off the top of my head though I think you want to keep the IGF just above freezing.

yes it's IGF-1 LR3. Man that web is weird it says when reconstructed it should be stored at -20C and -80C wtf??? A stone will brake at that temprature.

Well -20 degrees C is about -4 degrees fahrenheit, and the optimal freezer temperature is 0 degrees fahrenheit, so I would assume that on the coldest setting your freezer might be able to get that low.

Without some kind of special equipment however, there's no way in hell you'll get to -80 degrees C.

A 60 degree C range is pretty big...

what i am saying is that the mixture is going to freeze. Which means you will be trying to inject ice blocks into your muscles. a typical fridge temp is about 2-5 degree celsius,which should be a good temp to keep your IGF. The information on that website doesnt make any sence at all.

how long does one vial last? Ive never tried it

**Renesis** · 02-10-2008, 01:40 PM

25days with NaCl and much longer with AA, am not sure on the time though. Please don't take any info from this thread it is horrible.

figure9, I appreciate that you are trying to help, but you can not post links to sites that sell things like that. Please edit your post, and to those that quoted his post please edit those as well. Thanks.

As you say you will consume your IGF way before it comes to a point where ut has degraded. I don't take any chances and mix with AA and keep it in fridge after that. Why risk it keeping outside - just being extra cautious

**jaxon** · 02-10-2008, 09:42 PM

Thanks but what i meant was if i was to take the highest dose thats safe how long would one bottle last me. I went broke once trying to do growth long enough to see changes, just want to know if a vial will last 5days. thanks

**Renesis** · 02-10-2008, 10:18 PM

1 vial at a regular dosing schedule will last roughly the 25 days. At highest doses? what are you looking at for highest dosing?

Typically a vial is 1mg (1000mcg), the dosage is 40mcg to 80mcg+, do the math, at 40mcg injecting every day it will last for 25 days. Is this what you looking for or did i completely misunderstand you?
