Peptide & compound quality control

Identity, purity, content, contamination and sterility for research peptides, custom blends and small molecules — with a publicly verifiable certificate in seven business days.

ESSENTIAL — $299 CAD

Identity + Purity

LC-MS confirms the molecular weight against theory. RP-HPLC-UV at 214 nm gives purity as a percentage of total peak area, with every impurity above 0.05% reported. One price, both answers, always together.

COMPLETE — $349 CAD

Adds net content

Purity tells you what fraction of the powder is your compound. Net content tells you how many milligrams are actually in the vial. A 99% pure vial containing 3 mg of a labelled 5 mg is a 40% shortfall that purity alone will never show you. Complete adds net content and water content on top of Essential.

ADD-ONS — FOR ANYTHING INJECTED

Endotoxins & Sterility

Kinetic chromogenic LAL to USP <85>, down to 0.005 EU/mL. Sterility by rapid PCR in days, or by USP <71> membrane filtration over the full compendial 14-day incubation. We will not shorten <71> and we will not pretend to.

Before you ship

How much material to send

Not enough sample is the single most common reason a submission stalls. Our order form calculates the exact vial count for the tests you pick — but here is the shape of it.

What you orderedMinimum materialVialsForm
Identity + purity only1–2 mg1Lyophilised or solution
Identity, purity, net content, water5 mg1–2Lyophilised preferred
Add endotoxins and/or sterility+5 mg+1Sealed, unopened, crimped
Add heavy metals+5 mg+1Destructive digest — needs its own vial
Conformity across a lot1 per vial testedAll identical, same lot
Why vials and not just milligrams. Chemistry, microbiology and elemental analysis happen on physically separate benches with different contamination controls. One vial cannot be in three rooms. Sending the right number of vials is what keeps your seven-day turnaround a seven-day turnaround.
What we will not accept

An honest exclusion list.

Our intake form screens sample names live and will stop you before you ship. This is a compliance control, not a formality — and it protects you as much as it protects us.

Hormone products

HGH and somatropin, hCG, hMG, testosterone and its esters, nandrolone, trenbolone, stanozolol, oxandrolone, gonadotropins and botulinum toxin. We do not test these, at any price.

Controlled substances

Scheduled substances and precursors under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act require import permits with a forty-five day lead time. That cannot coexist with a seven-day service. If you are unsure whether your compound is scheduled, ask before you ship.
