How do I verify the quality of research peptides vs pharmaceutical-grade peptides?

For research peptides, request batch-specific COAs showing HPLC purity (should be 98%+) and mass spectrometry confirmation of molecular identity. For pharmaceutical-grade or compounded peptides, verify the pharmacy holds appropriate 503A or 503B accreditation.

  • For research peptides, request batch-specific COAs showing HPLC purity (should be 98%+) and mass spectrometry confirmation of molecular identity. For pharmaceutical-grade or compounded peptides, verify the pharmacy holds appropriate 503A or 503B accreditation. The guide to reading COAs provides detailed instructions for interpreting both types of quality documentation when evaluating research peptides vs prescription peptides sourcing options.
