You’re right that GC-MS involves heat and volatilization, but the main reason BA sometimes “disappears” on a GC-MS report isn’t that it’s burned off in the instrument, it’s the method.@Primal_Pharma sorry for jumping the gun. I checked my prior GCMS and they don't show the BA either, despite separate BA testing showing that it is definitely there. GCMS uses heat, right? It probably evaporates the alcohol.

Either way, your observation makes sense. separate BA testing shows it’s there, while the GC-MS report doesn’t flag it. We do use BA in the formulation, so your initial result doesn’t contradict what’s in the vial, just the limitations of that GC-MS method.
