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

    Not on this COA · core

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

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

  • Purity

    Not on this COA · core

    Reported purity percentage for the analyte.

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

  • Heavy metals

    Tested · passed

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

    As: 0.003 ppm, Cd: <0.001 ppm, Hg: <0.001 ppm, Pb: <0.001 ppm

  • Microbial

    Tested · passed

    Bioburden / microbial limits testing.

    Total Aerobic: 400 cfu/g, Total Coliforms: <10 cfu/g, E. coli: Absent, Salmonella: Absent, Staphylococcus: Absent, Yeast & Molds: <100 cfu/g

  • 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.

  • No purity analysis

    COA lacks HPLC or other purity testing, which is essential for peptide quality verification

  • No identity confirmation

    No mass spectrometry, amino acid analysis, or other identity verification method present

  • Limited testing scope

    Only heavy metals and microbial testing performed; missing identity, purity, endotoxin, sterility, and residual solvent/water content

  • Lot number present

    Lot L1165 clearly documented

  • Issue date documented

    Issue date of July 15, 2025 is clearly stated and within valid range

  • No verification URL or contact info

    No website, phone number, or address provided for InstaMed to verify authenticity

  • Appearance and flavor testing unusual

    Organoleptic testing (appearance, flavor) is atypical for research-grade peptides and suggests this may be intended for food/supplement use rather than research

Timing & next steps

Practical follow-ups based on document age and gaps.

  • coa age
