Quite ironic that, don’t you think?

Yes. Although, I would argue about "independent evidence." However, that's for another forum.

Personally, it makes me "merry" and proud that those living in diverse countries can unite and celebrate holidays together. We work together, we live together, we "serve" together... why not celebrate together.

Happy Holidays brother!

Yes mate, there’s often more that unites us than separates us as communities & it’s in this community’s interest to recognise that & put aside that which divides us as we work towards our goal of harm reduction.

Merry Xmas mate, hope you ‘n yours have a good ‘un, as we say on this side of the pond.

The -ene functionality is applicable to the gonane core so my understanding is these impurities could be potentially present with any testosterone ester as the testosterone is synthesized prior to esterification. I would not think any one ester would be more prone to these impurities as the basic esterification step is same for all. Any organic chemists / interested parties please correct me if / where wrong.

My take would be a sample high in -ene impurities would be a poorly synthesized testosterone base material (poor testosterone selectivity).

My hypothesis: these impurities in their esterified form are slipping through HPLC and being picked up as Test ester API.

Cheers for that - my chemistry knowledge is pretty abysmal TBH.

Out of curiosity, do you know whether it’s theoretically possible that there’s something that would cause similarly false readings in an HLPC test for 17aa compounds? Just that many old skool guys are adamant that pharma oral AAS were much stronger back in the day & these claims are almost always dismissed as rosey tinted glasses etc because “tested 25mg dbol is 25mg dbol”.
