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.

    >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

    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 purity confirmed

    Chromatographic purity >99.9% with clean chromatogram showing single major peak at 6.59 min. This is normal for research-grade peptides.

  • Identity confirmed by mass spectrometry

    Mass spectrum shows m/z 1586 matching reference standard for Retatrutide. CAS number 2381089-83-2 provided.

  • Branding inconsistency

    Document header shows 'Finnrick Analytics' and 'Finnrick.com' but footer and signature reference 'Krause Analytical LLC'. The document appears to be a white-label or reseller arrangement, which is not inherently illegitimate but creates confusion about the actual testing laboratory.

  • Lab verification unclear

    Verification URL provided (https://finnrick.com/verify) but the relationship between Finnrick (vendor/reseller) and Krause Analytical (testing lab) is not clearly explained on the COA.

  • Methods described but results not shown

    Page 3 describes methods for Endotoxins (USP/NF 85) and Metals (USP/NF 233) testing, but no actual test results are provided in the COA. This suggests these tests may not have been performed on this batch.

  • Dates are reasonable

    Sample received 2026-01-29, tested 2026-02-10, report issued 2026-02-16. Timeline is logical and all dates are on or before 2026-07-29.

  • Batch/lot number present

    Batch/Lot 8cb2kas clearly marked and consistent throughout document including vial photos.

  • Professional presentation

    Document includes chromatogram, mass spectrum comparison, vial photos, detailed methods, and proper signatures. Formatting is consistent with professional analytical lab reports.
