Strange film

First time purchasing Mast E and looked closely at the bottle the other day and there is a strange translucent film inside the bottle. You can swirl it around and obviously it disappears only to return.

Has anyone ever seen this?

should be clear.

i wouldn't pin it. infection isn't worth it!

you can try heating it in a water bath and see if it clears.... if not. dump it.

It's not the liquid but above on the inside of the vial very thin and translucent.
 
This is one - will try another. It is kinda hard to see but I swirled the bottle so the bottom half of the empty vial removed some of the film. If you look at the square you can see the part of film on the right was removed (at an angle).

All 4 vials are the same w/film.

I won't not use that...There is no reason to have any type of "film" or any other substances in that vial...
 
Here is another:

Again in the square you can see where the area got cleared from the liquid and the rest of the vial looks foggy.

It just doesn't look right but it may just be me.
 
Looks like it's condensation almost. Hate to say it, but I'd bin it. I'm all for getting to the bottom of a mystery, but not when I get to do it on a IV of antibiotics.
 
Im with Mythotik, no reason for any type of floating film in a Test vial. Id chuck that Shit.
 
I brew 50 bottles of mast e at a time. That and primo are the only ones I brew less than 1000ml batches. I've had no other issues or complaints with any of the other bottles from that batch.


But..... I have absolutely no problem making another batch today and reshipping it tomorrow for you expressto ensure you have a replacement no later than saturday
 
Even though youve gone through half the bottle and could've introduced something into the bottle with your pin that you draw with, and I'm sure since its half gone if there was an issue with the qualityyou wouldve have posted more pics than of just the bottle.....

You guys know I always go above and beyond to make sure my people are treated right.

I'll replace all the mast e even if you can't post an unopened vial with the same film. But I'd love to see a pic of an unopened vial with the same issue as I've inspected the stock I have on hand and see nothing similar.
 
couple thoughts. maybe you introduced a small amount of water to the vial? or perhaps the vials are not at neutral pressure?
 
Thanks for responding to this! The other 3 vials I have (which I have not used) also has the same film and can post pics if you like. So as far as introducing something into the vial I would have to rule out. I am very careful when pinning and do not want to end up in the hospital. I have been pinning for sometime now being on TRT and always take the same precautions everytime!

Have no problem posting the other 3 vials. Will get them up later today. And thanks again Pep for responding!

Pep when I first received the order I did not notice any of this - it was later (last Sunday) after my pin that I noticed it. Hence the PM I sent on Monday. I then checked the other 3 vials and all have the same film. The cyp vials look normal.
 
Weird how cold is it in the storage area? Oil or ba sticking to the glass? Idk it's hard to see In a pic but I think I see the clear layer of fluid you speak of almost clinging to the bottle with the fog?

No cold storage - have no idea what is on the glass. Yes kinda looks like fog but more of filmy substance.
