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.
3 of 7 present · 3 passed · 0 failed · 0 reported · 4 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.
>99.9%
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
Tested · passed · core
LAL or chromogenic endotoxin assay.
<0.5 EU
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.
Dual branding inconsistency
Document shows both 'Finnrick Analytics' and 'Krause Analytical LLC' branding. Header states 'Finnrick Analytics' and 'Finnrick.com' but footer and signature reference 'Krause Analytical LLC' at 8127 Mesa Drive Suite B-206 Austin, TX 78759. This dual identity is unusual and may indicate reseller/white-label arrangement or document assembly from multiple sources.
Verification URL domain mismatch
Verification URL is https://finnrick.com/verify but the performing laboratory is stated as Krause Analytical LLC. The relationship between Finnrick and Krause is not clearly explained on the COA.
High purity with supporting chromatogram
Chromatographic purity >99.9% is supported by clean HPLC chromatogram (page 2) showing single dominant peak at ~7 minutes with minimal impurities. This is normal for research-grade peptides.
Mass spectral confirmation provided
Mass spectrum (page 3) shows expected molecular ion peaks for Retatrutide with m/z values around 1586.5, 1585.7, and charge state series consistent with peptide structure. Identity confirmed by HPLC-UV-MS.
Batch/lot number present
Batch/Lot 38h96wg clearly stated and matches Test Certificate ID.
Dates are logical and recent
Sample received 6/9/2026, testing performed 6/11-6/14/2026, report issued 6/16/2026. All dates are sequential, reasonable, and within valid range (on or before 2026-07-29).
Limited testing panels
Only purity, identity, and endotoxin testing performed. No heavy metals, microbial contamination, sterility, or residual solvent/water content testing. While not necessarily indicative of fraud, this is a limited panel for comprehensive quality assurance.
Large watermark overlay
Prominent 'FINNRICK' watermark overlays entire document, which is unusual for final issued COAs. May indicate sample/draft status or anti-counterfeiting measure, but reduces professional appearance.
Potency below label claim
Actual content 27.5 mg vs. label claim 30 mg (91.8% of label). While within some acceptable ranges, this is below the stated amount and should be noted by end users.
