Question 1

What are peptides?

Accepted Answer

Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds. They are smaller than proteins and play crucial roles in biological processes. Our peptides are synthesized for in-vitro research and laboratory use only.

Question 2

Are your peptides for human consumption?

Accepted Answer

No. All products sold by Experts Only Research are strictly for laboratory and research purposes only. They are not intended for human or animal consumption, and should not be used as food, drugs, or cosmetics.

Question 3

What is a Certificate of Analysis (COA)?

Accepted Answer

A COA is a document from an independent laboratory that verifies the identity, purity, and quality of a compound. Every Experts Only Research product undergoes HPLC and mass spectrometry testing. COAs are available for download on each product page.

Question 4

How are your peptides shipped?

Accepted Answer

All orders are shipped in temperature-controlled, discreet packaging via USPS or UPS. Orders placed before 2pm EST ship same day. Standard shipping typically arrives within 2-5 business days.

Question 5

Do you offer bulk or wholesale pricing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer volume discounts for research institutions, universities, and qualified laboratories. Please contact us through our inquiry form for custom quotes on bulk orders.

Question 6

What is your return policy?

Accepted Answer

Due to the nature of our products, we cannot accept returns on opened items. Unopened products may be returned within 30 days of purchase for a full refund. If you receive a damaged or incorrect product, contact us immediately for a replacement.

Question 7

What testing methods do you use?

Accepted Answer

Every compound undergoes dual-method verification: High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) confirms purity percentage, and Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) confirms molecular identity. Both tests are conducted by independent third-party laboratories.

Question 8

How should peptides be stored?

Accepted Answer

Lyophilized (dry) peptides should be stored at -20°C for long-term stability, or at 2-8°C for short-term use (up to 6 months). Reconstituted peptides should be refrigerated at 2-8°C and used within 4 weeks. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
