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.

  • High HPLC purity

    Chromatographic purity >99.9% is normal for research-grade peptides and supported by clean chromatogram showing single dominant peak at 4.56 min.

  • Mass spectral confirmation

    Mass spectrum matches reference standard for SS-31 (Elamipritide), CAS 736992-21-5. Page 2 shows both sample and reference spectra with consistent fragmentation patterns.

  • Batch/lot number present

    Batch/Lot hgmwynm clearly stated on COA and visible on vial photo.

  • Dates are consistent and valid

    Sample received 2/26/2026, endotoxin test 2/28/2026, HPLC tests 3/2/2026. All dates are sequential, logical, and on or before today (2026-07-29).

  • Branding inconsistency

    Document shows dual branding: 'Finnrick Analytics' and 'Finnrick.com' in header, but all testing attributed to 'Krause Analytical LLC' with Krause logo, address (8127 Mesa Drive Suite B-206 Austin, TX 78759), and director signature (Mark C. Krause). Unclear relationship between Finnrick and Krause entities.

  • Verification URL domain mismatch

    Verification URL is https://finnrick.com/verify but testing lab is Krause Analytical LLC. This may indicate Finnrick is a reseller/distributor using Krause as contract lab, but the dual branding is not explicitly explained on the COA.

  • Limited testing panels

    Only purity, identity, and endotoxin panels performed. Heavy metals method (USP/NF 233) is described on page 3 but no results reported. No microbial, sterility, or residual solvent/water testing. This is not uncommon for research peptides but limits quality assurance scope.

  • Professional presentation

    COA includes detailed methods summary (page 3), chromatogram and mass spectra (page 2), vial photos, and standard lab disclaimers. Formatting is consistent with legitimate analytical lab reports.
