GHK-cu arrived with water spots and won’t fully recon

Summary

GHK-Cu won't fully dissolve after reconstitution with recurring chunks or mist appearing later

Attempts to redissolve by syringe transfer and body warming cleared the vial temporarily but cloudiness or chunks returned after fridge storage. Suggestions focused on possible pH gelling, using extra bacteriostatic water for thicker 100 mg concentrations, and moving contents to larger sterile containers for better dilution. One participant described splitting their own material into pen cartridges to achieve more dilution and reduce reactions.

whether the batch itself is ruined

Nothing here is advice.

After seeing similar problems reported, I followed some online tips by transferring the whole thing to a 3ml syringe and returning it to the vial. That made it clear temporarily, but it got chunky overnight. With the second vial, warming it in my pocket during an hour of tasks got rid of the lumps, yet fridge storage led to a misty undissolved area appearing. Could the batch be spoiled?

Those unmixed containers seemed alright despite some haze. The haze on the container probably came after it thawed and sat in a damp spot. The mixed one in the image looks decent enough too. Haze on the container blocks a clear view inside. I wondered if they held fifty milligrams each. I wondered whether that bacteriostatic water had been the one used. Particles that won't dissolve and show up out of nowhere often stem from thickening due to an acidity issue. I checked the acidity level myself. I shifted it into a bigger container with some extra bacteriostatic water to watch the outcome.

Now I realize the containers hold one hundred milligrams each. Three milliliters alone could leave the liquid rather dense. Adding three more milliliters of BAC should fix that.

So that probably means I'd have to pick up some sanitized containers for moving the contents over.

I moved my batch over to a pair of pen cartridges. Higher dilution makes several injections simpler without triggering responses.

It resembles that brand's material and I have never experienced any problems with their items.
