Frequently asked questions
Research peptides are legal to buy and sell in Canada when labelled and sold strictly for laboratory research use only. They are not approved by Health Canada as drugs, supplements, or products for human consumption. See our full guide: Are research peptides legal in Canada?
Yes. Every batch is independently tested by Testides and Peptide Test Canada, and a certificate of analysis (COA) reporting HPLC purity and mass-spectrometry identity accompanies each product.
It is the proportion of the target peptide relative to related impurities as measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
Lyophilized peptides are reconstituted with an appropriate diluent — usually bacteriostatic water. Our reconstitution guide covers volumes and technique.
Lyophilized peptides are generally stored cold and away from light; reconstituted peptides have a shorter shelf life and are kept refrigerated.
Yes. We ship Canada-wide, with free shipping on orders over $200.
