Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers about research use, quality documentation, handling, ordering, shipping and support.
PEPTIONS products are supplied exclusively for legitimate laboratory research and analytical use. They are not for human or veterinary use, consumption or self-administration.
01 · Research use
Who are PEPTIONS products intended for?
Qualified laboratories, research organizations and trained professionals conducting legitimate analytical or scientific research. They are not intended for personal use.
Are PEPTIONS products medicines, supplements or cosmetics?
No. These research materials are not foods, dietary supplements, cosmetics or approved medicines.
What does “Research Use Only” mean?
The material is supplied for controlled laboratory, analytical or preclinical research where permitted. Purchasers are responsible for approvals, handling procedures and legal compliance.
Can PEPTIONS provide dosing or treatment guidance?
No. We do not provide instructions for human or veterinary administration, dosing, diagnosis or treatment.
02 · Quality & COA
What is a Certificate of Analysis (COA)?
A COA is a batch-specific document summarizing analytical results and identifying information for a tested lot. The lot number should match the product documentation.
What do HPLC and LC-MS verify?
HPLC commonly assesses chromatographic purity. LC-MS or mass spectrometry supports identity confirmation by molecular mass. The methods answer different analytical questions.
Is a COA available for every product and lot?
Availability varies by product and lot. Verified batch-specific documentation will be identified when available; general website statements do not replace lot records.
Which purity specification applies to my order?
Refer to the selected product specification and verified batch documentation. Batch-specific information takes precedence over general catalog information.
03 · Storage & handling
What is lyophilized material?
Lyophilized material has been freeze-dried to remove water under controlled conditions, supporting stability during appropriate sealed storage and laboratory handling.
How should unopened lyophilized products be stored?
Follow the label and batch documentation. Keep materials sealed and protected from inappropriate heat, moisture and light, while minimizing repeated temperature cycling.
What should I check when the shipment arrives?
Confirm the product name, specification, quantity and lot information. Inspect the outer package and sealed product condition before storage.
Can PEPTIONS provide reconstitution instructions?
We do not provide instructions connected with human or veterinary use. Qualified researchers should follow approved laboratory protocols and batch documentation.
04 · Orders & payment

How long does order processing take?
