What documents should you ask a peptide vendor for?

Quick answer

Five, and a seller worth buying from publishes them: the certificate of analysis, the name of the laboratory that tested it, that laboratory’s accreditation wording, the list of tests it ran, and the seller’s company details with written terms. Together they show what was tested, by whom, and who answers if something does not match.

The five documents, side by side

What each one settles, where it stops, and how to check it yourself.

Documents to ask for before paying, and what each one settles
DocumentWhat it tells youWhat it does not tell youHow to check it
Certificate of analysisA laboratory’s results for one production lotAnything about a different lotScan its QR code, or enter its key, on the laboratory’s own website
The laboratory’s nameWho ran the testsWhether that laboratory is accreditedFind the name on the certificate itself, not only on a store page
Accreditation wordingHow the laboratory describes its quality systemAnything beyond the exact words usedRead it word for word: accredited to a standard and aligned to one are different claims
The list of testsWhich checks were run on that lotResults for tests that are not listedLook for identity and purity, then note what else was tested
Company details and written termsWho you are paying, and what it promises if a result disagreesAnything about whether a product is approvedLook the company up where it says it is registered, and keep a copy of the terms
Reading a record

How to read a published record

A certificate record is short. Each line answers one question, and together they let you check a lot yourself.

  • Lot names the production batch the results belong to.
  • Purity, HPLC is how pure that lot tested by high performance liquid chromatography.
  • Certificate is the report’s own number. With the key printed on it, the record opens on the laboratory’s own site.
  • Tested is the month the laboratory ran the tests on that lot.
  • Laboratory tells you who ran the tests. Read its accreditation wording next to the name.
  • Second laboratory names another lab’s report on the same lot, here a Janoshik bacterial endotoxin test that opens on verify.janoshik.com.

Peptara Labs’ certificates

Three questions about the documents behind a Peptara Labs order. Each answer links its source. This site has not tested any product.

Does Peptara Labs publish its certificates?

Yes, one per product on its certificates page, each from a recent batch with its lot code, HPLC purity and test date. Its website also lists the printed batch certificate for what shipped among what arrives.

What does a Peptara Labs certificate test for?

By its description: identity by HPLC and LC-MS, HPLC purity against a 95.0 percent release criterion, net peptide content, sterility, bacterial endotoxin, heavy metals and a fentanyl screen.

Can you check a Peptara Labs report on the laboratory’s own site?

Yes. Each Titreon certificate has a QR code and a printed key that open it on titreonanalytical.com, and each Janoshik endotoxin report opens on verify.janoshik.com. This guide checked both on 15 September 2026.
