7-panel checklist

Had data + good, had data + bad, reported without pass/fail, or missing. Missing lowers thoroughness — you decide whether that panel matters; PeptIQ’s score still factors coverage.

2 of 7 present · 2 passed · 0 failed · 0 reported · 5 missing

Missing is a thoroughness gap — not automatically bad. PeptIQ’s legitimacy score still weighs panel coverage; you can down-weight panels that don’t matter for your use case.

  • Identity

    Tested · passed · core

    Compound identity confirmed (e.g. HPLC, mass spec).

    ID Confirmed

  • Purity

    Tested · passed · core

    Reported purity percentage for the analyte.

    98.7%

  • Heavy metals

    Not on this COA

    Lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury, or similar limits.

    No evidence for this panel. That lowers thoroughness — whether it matters depends on what you care about.

  • Microbial

    Not on this COA

    Bioburden / microbial limits testing.

    No evidence for this panel. That lowers thoroughness — whether it matters depends on what you care about.

  • Endotoxin

    Not on this COA · core

    LAL or chromogenic endotoxin assay.

    No evidence for this panel. That lowers thoroughness — whether it matters depends on what you care about.

  • Sterility

    Not on this COA

    Sterility testing where applicable.

    No evidence for this panel. That lowers thoroughness — whether it matters depends on what you care about.

  • Residual solvent / water

    Not on this COA

    Residual solvents or water content limits.

    No evidence for this panel. That lowers thoroughness — whether it matters depends on what you care about.

How to read this

Had data · good

Panel present with a pass (or clear acceptance).

Had data · bad

Panel present with a fail — a concrete quality signal.

Had data · unclear

Value reported without an explicit pass/fail mark.

Missing

Not on this certificate. Lowers thoroughness; you decide if that panel matters for your use case. PeptIQ’s score still factors coverage.

Findings

Evidence-linked observations from this audit.

  • High chromatographic purity

    98.7% purity by HPLC-UV/MS with clean chromatogram showing dominant peak at 5.85 min

  • Identity confirmed

    Mass spectral match confirmed by HPLC-UV-MS; mass spectrum shows expected charge states for MOTS-c peptide

  • Batch/lot number present

    Batch cusbs4m clearly documented with label claim of 10 mg, actual 9.82 mg (98.1% of label)

  • Established testing laboratory

    Krause Analytical LLC (Austin, TX) with verification URL provided; signed by Laboratory Director Mark C. Krause

  • Limited testing panels

    Only identity and purity panels performed; methods summary describes endotoxin and heavy metals testing but no results provided for this sample

  • Professional presentation

    Multi-page report with chromatogram, mass spectrum, methods summary, and proper documentation; includes CAS number 1627580-64-6
