Can't store md5 string in varchar

Howdy! I'm placing an md5 encrypted string created via the java.security.MessageDigest and "MD5" algorithm in a varchar(16) field.

When I retrieve it out and compare it against the same string newly created they are not the same. When I look at the string retrieved from the database some of the odd characters are now converted to something else.

Suggestions?
