RUO Products
What does "Research Use Only" (RUO) mean ?
RUO products are intended exclusively for research purposes and are not intended for human or veterinary use.
→ Learn more about our RUO productsWhy are certain peptides not included in your catalog ?
We select only products whose scientific rationale is sufficiently supported by current scientific knowledge.
→ Explore our product selection policyWhy don't you offer peptide blends ?
Some peptide combinations are not, in our view, sufficiently supported by scientific evidence. We prefer to offer products that we can confidently stand behind.
→ View our product selection policyHow do you select the peptides you offer ?
Every product is evaluated based on the available scientific literature before being added to our catalog.
Quality control
How do you verify the quality of your products?
Every batch undergoes a quality control protocol comprising multiple complementary analyses performed before it is made available.
→ Discover our quality control protocolIs a purity of over 99% sufficient ?
No. Purity is essential, but on its own it cannot guarantee the overall quality of a product.
Why do you also test for endotoxins, heavy metals, and bacteria ?
Because a product can exhibit excellent purity while still containing other contaminants.
That is why our quality control protocol goes far beyond HPLC analysis alone.
Are your analyses independent ?
Yes. Every batch is tested by independent laboratories, which issue a certified Certificate of Analysis (COA) for each one.
Transparency & Traceability
How can I verify my vial ?
Every vial features a QR code that provides direct access to the Certificate of Analysis (COA) corresponding to its batch number.
→ Discover our traceability policyDoes every batch have its own COA ?
Yes. Each batch is associated to its own certificate of analysis.
Can I view a COA before placing an order?
We regularly provide sample Certificates of Analysis to demonstrate our commitment to transparency.
Is each QR code unique ?
Yes. Each QR code links directly to the Certificate of Analysis for its corresponding batch.
Payment
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept credit card payments (when available), instant bank transfers, and Bitcoin.
Why do you recommend instant bank transfers?
Because they provide a fast, reliable payment method that is particularly well suited to the RUO market.
Why do you accept Bitcoin ?
Bitcoin offers an independent and secure payment solution, particularly appreciated by customers who prefer to avoid traditional payment intermediaries.
Are method payments secure ?
Yes. We carefully select payment solutions that meet high security standards to protect every transaction.
Delivery
Which country do you ship from ?
All orders are prepared and shipped from France.
What are your shipping times ?
Orders are generally dispatched within 24 hours after payment has been confirmed.
Are your packages discreet?
Yes. We take special care with our packaging to ensure discreet and secure delivery.
Do you ship throughout the European Union?
Yes. We ship to all countries within the European Union.
Peptides storage
How should I store a lyophilized peptide?
Unreconstituted peptides should be stored according to the recommendations provided on their product page.
How should I store a peptide after reconstitution?
Storage conditions depend on the specific peptide. Please refer to the corresponding product page for the recommended storage conditions.
Can I freeze a peptide?
Yes. As long as the peptide remains in its lyophilized (unreconstituted) form, it is recommended to store it at −20°C upon receipt to maximize long-term stability. Once reconstituted, however, freezing is strongly discouraged. Freeze–thaw cycles may compromise solution stability and affect the integrity of the molecule. Recommended storage conditions after reconstitution vary depending on the specific peptide. Please refer to the corresponding product page for product-specific storage recommendations.
Orders
How can I track my order ?
A tracking link is provided as soon as your order has been shipped.
Can I modify my order ?
If your order has not yet been prepared, please contact our team as soon as possible.
What should I do if my package is lost or damaged ?
If your package is lost or arrives damaged, please contact the carrier directly using your tracking information to initiate a claim.
