I'm new here and just wanted to share my appreciation for this forum. I especially like the fact that discretion and prudence seem to be valued so highly. From what I can tell it's a place for people who are sensible and (mostly) have their heads screwed on straight. Very happy to have found a place with this type of community.
I'd also like to ask a question, which I hope is okay here (if not, I'd appreciate learning where to post something like this going forward). I've used the forum's search function but it hasn't turned up what I'm looking for. Do any active users regularly lab test products from vendors? I don't mean just reagent testing, which is easy and inexpensive enough for me to do. Rather, I'm wondering if anyone regularly has product sent out for more extensive laboratory analysis. While I trust the more accredited vendors on here, I'm a cautious person by nature and would appreciate that extra bit of assurance. I've thought of doing it myself, but the expense would make it difficult for me to do regularly, so I wanted to see if any other users are already doing this. Thanks!
