Field Notes

Dispatches on sourcing, method and traceability. Written for people who read the certificate before they read the label.


  1. METHOD

    What a certificate of analysis actually proves

    Identity, purity and the difference between them — and how to read a certificate of analysis.

    In preparation
  2. TRACEABILITY

    Why a lot number is the only claim that matters

    A batch you can look up is a claim you can check. Everything else is branding.

    In preparation
  3. HANDLING

    Storage conditions and the shelf life of a research peptide

    Storage conditions and how to read the information supplied with each lot.

    In preparation
  4. STANDARD

    Same science. A higher standard.

    The certificates we will publish with each lot, and the claims we refuse to make.

    In preparation

The first dispatches are being written. In the meantime, every compound in the catalog carries its own specification, and lot records will be added as supplier certificates arrive on the verification page.
