Third-party tested, every batch
Each batch is tested by an independent analytical lab — identity by mass spectrometry and purity by HPLC. The Certificate of Analysis for your vial's lot is searchable by its batch code at /coa, so you can match what you receive to its published report.
Batch COAs publish here as lots are tested — every shipped vial includes its lot's COA, also searchable at /coa.
