yeah...its around somewhere. cant remember where, but I will look it up for you.
still, you have to ask yourself - if esterfied hormones are fat (oil) soluble in their own right, then what are solvents needed for?
an alcohol swab is sufficient to clean a site pre-inject, so no issue there.
and, just because the gear was sterile when it went into the sterile vial doesn't mean there is no chance of contamination. the dynamic part of that equation is drawing. and this is taken into account by the major manufacturers who are subject to a lot more liabilities than a UGL. UGL sells you dirty shit, you destroy a bicep for life with a runaway abccess, and it's not like your gonna sue him.
Watson, schering and other FDA targeted giants - whole different ballgame. UGL rules just don't apply. So, yeah. they take the added measures.
some fool thinks he's gonna save money on pins...reuses em. a lot.
and he's a pig. lays the exposed pin on top his pizza box or beer can.
next day, draws. introduces a contaminent. could be biological. could be organic. the body's defenses don't care. and remember, a microscopic size contaminent is all that is needed for the body to react.
so, the fuk head gets and abcess. looses a good part of his thigh. hires a philidephia law firm of 700 lawyers that specialize in drug companies. big law suit. media sharks have a field day. the corps stocks plunge. lots of money lost, rep damaged....
and the rest...well, watch the news, read the paper.
im in a hurry so your gonna have to excuse the typos
but, look, its really not that complicated. a hormone - the ones we are interested in, really don't like water or oil it is the ester that makes them soluble, mostly in oil.
so you wanna make gear? go to the grocery store, pick up some safflower oil. dump in some powders - hopefully the perfect ratio that allows max oil saturation without the hormone, or some of it anyway, jumping back out (crashing). do it all on a mr. coffee hot plate (250 degrees). heat it until its clear (all dissolved). fresh sterile vial, syringe filter, large drawing pin and go to work. job done.
it just really isn't that complicated.
once in the body, the hormone comes out of the oil and into the blood where it uses the water content as the carrier to get it past the bodies mechanisms that would otherwise keep it out of the tissues.
and I dunno, maybe the BA and BB helps aid in the hormones solubility into the oil, but as far as I know, the esterfied hormone is fat soluble, period. needs no assistance. and oil is basically liquid fat.
