Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our research peptides
1
Are these peptides research grade?
NuScience peptides are research-grade compounds verified to 99%+ purity by HPLC and mass spectrometry through independent third-party laboratories. They are supplied strictly for research and analytical purposes only.
2
What is the difference between HPLC purity and net peptide content?
HPLC purity is the target peptide compared with peptide-related impurities. Net peptide content is actual peptide compared with water, salts, and counter-ions in the vial, which is why a 99% pure peptide can weigh in at a lower net content.
3
What does research use only mean?
It means the compound is a laboratory reagent for in vitro and analytical research, not a drug or supplement, and not for human or veterinary use.
4
How do I confirm the purity of a specific batch?
Match the lot number on the vial to its batch-specific certificate on the Lab Test Results page, and check that the HPLC and mass spectrometry results meet the stated specification.
5
How should laboratory grade peptides be stored?
Storage requirements may vary by peptide and product formulation. Refer to the applicable product labeling and verified manufacturer documentation for storage conditions specific to each research material. Follow appropriate laboratory procedures to protect research materials from conditions that may affect their quality.
6
Where can I find the Certificate of Analysis for a batch?
COAs are available for select products on our Lab Test Results page. Please refer to the available lab reports for product-specific testing information.
7
Are peptides supposed to be refrigerated?
Peptides are generally recommended to be stored in a cool and dry environment, but refrigeration is not always necessary. It depends on the specific peptide and its stability characteristics. Always refer to the supplier’s guidelines for storage recommendations.
8
At what temperature are peptides stable?
The stability of peptides varies, but they are often stable at temperatures ranging from -4°F to +39°F (-20°C to +4°C). However, this is a general guideline, and it’s crucial to check the specific stability information provided by the supplier for each peptide.
9
Can I store peptides in the freezer?
Yes, peptides can be stored in the freezer, and it is a common practice to enhance their shelf life. Peptides are often stable for longer periods when stored at temperatures below -4°F (-20°C). Again, check the specific storage recommendations provided by the supplier.
10
Are peptides heat sensitive?
Peptides can be sensitive to heat, and exposure to high temperatures may lead to degradation. It is advisable to store peptides in a cool environment and avoid prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures. Always follow the recommended storage conditions to maintain the stability and integrity of the peptides.
11
What are peptides in science?
Peptides are short amino acid chains, building blocks of proteins. They serve vital roles in biology, acting as messengers, hormones, and enzymes, influencing various physiological processes.
