Questions
Questions about research peptides
What are research peptides?
Short chains of amino acids made synthetically and sold for laboratory and scientific research. They are characterised by their sequence, purity and identity, and supplied for research use only.
What is the difference between research peptides and compounded peptides?
A compounded product is prepared by a licensed pharmacy for a specific patient on a prescription. A research peptide is a chemical sold for research; it is not prepared for any patient or animal, and it is not a medicine. We sell research peptides only.
Can I give these to my dog or cat?
Our products are sold for research use only and are not approved for use in any animal. We can’t advise on giving anything to an animal. Please talk to your veterinarian about the health of the animals in your care.
Are peptides safe for pets?
Safety in companion animals has not been established for the products we sell, and none are FDA approved. We publish what has been studied and in which species in our research library, without drawing conclusions the studies don’t.
Is BPC-157 FDA approved?
No. BPC-157 is not approved by the FDA for use in people or animals. We sell it for research use only.
How is every lot tested?
An outside lab tests each lot by HPLC for purity and by mass spectrometry for identity. The certificate is published on our certificates page before that lot ships. Type the lot number from your label to see it.
How should vials be stored?
Sealed, cold and dark: −20 °C for long-term storage, 2–8 °C for a few weeks. Our guide to storing lyophilized peptides explains why.
How fast do you ship?
Orders paid by 1pm ET on a business day usually leave the same day. Delivery times and costs are on our shipping page.
Can I return an order?
Unopened, sealed items can be returned within 30 days for a refund. If anything arrives damaged or wrong, we replace or refund it. The full policy is in our terms of sale.
How can I pay?
By card, Apple Pay or Google Pay through Stripe’s secure checkout. We never see your card number.
Do I need to be 21?
Yes. You must be 21 or older to buy, and you confirm this and our research-use terms at checkout.
