• Behind the Science: How We Verify Every Batch

    “Trust us” isn’t a testing methodology. So here’s exactly what happens before any compound reaches you — not a summary, the actual panel.

    The testing panel

    Every batch goes through independent third-party testing at Purity Analytics, a Georgia-based lab, covering:

    • HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography) — measures purity, confirming what percentage of the vial is actually the compound it claims to be
    • Mass spectrometry — confirms molecular identity, verifying the compound is what it says it is, not just how pure it is
    • Heavy metals (ICP-MS) — screens for contamination from the manufacturing process
    • TAMC/TYMC — total aerobic microbial count and total yeast/mold count, catching biological contamination
    • Endotoxin testing (LAL) — screens for bacterial endotoxins, especially critical for injectable research compounds

    Why the signature matters more than the number

    A COA is only as trustworthy as its origin. Ours are cryptographically signed using PKCS#7/Sectigo digital signatures — the same underlying technology banks use to verify document authenticity. That means the document itself can prove it hasn’t been altered since the lab issued it, and you can verify that signature yourself in Adobe Acrobat, not just take our description of it on faith.

    Every COA is also independently checkable at verify.purityanalytics.com — you don’t need to trust our website’s claim that testing happened; you can go straight to the lab’s own verification system.

    The honest part

    This process isn’t unique to us, it’s what any legitimate research supplier should be doing. What we think is actually worth pointing out: it’s rare to see suppliers publish the full panel rather than a vague “tested for purity” claim. See our [Research Index] for the published literature these compounds are studied against, and check any batch’s COA yourself before you use it.
