Quality and batch records
Every batch we supply was lab tested by its manufacturer before release. Two results matter most: purity, measured by HPLC, and identity, confirmed by mass spectrometry. Both are written on a certificate of analysis that bears the same batch number as the vials in your carton. That certificate opens the file we keep on each batch, and this page lists what else is in the file.
When this site calls peptides lab tested, it means that certificate exists and can be read. Our buyers are businesses and institutions in federal Iraq and the Kurdistan Region. Individuals are not supplied.
- The certificate of analysisEach batch has exactly one certificate, and the manufacturer is its author. Every later document in the file refers back to it. The library opens with the first loaded batch; until then, the certificate for your batch comes with the goods, and you can ask us for it.
- How batches are testedHPLC supplies the purity figure. Mass spectrometry shows whether the molecule is the one named on the label. Each covers a gap the other leaves, and the testing page records where those gaps are.
- Delivery and storageCold, dry and sealed is how a freeze-dried peptide lasts. The delivery page records storage temperatures, packing, delivery to business premises in Baghdad, the provinces and the Kurdistan Region, the Certificate of Conformity for imported goods, and the checks for goods-in.
One number on four documents
Vial label, box, delivery note and certificate all carry the batch number. A storekeeper opening the carton can compare the four in a minute.
Should a batch ever be questioned, that number tells us which buyers received it and on which dates, because each delivery is logged against it.
Third party tested peptides
Shop pages use the phrase freely and seldom attach a document to it. We apply it to a batch in one case only: an independent laboratory has analysed that batch, and its report, with the laboratory named, is filed in the library next to the manufacturer's certificate. A manufacturer's figures are never presented under anyone else's name.
Batch records and product registration
A batch certificate and a product registration answer different questions. Registering a medicine in Iraq is a matter for the federal Ministry of Health, whose National Center for Drug Control and Research tests the products put forward. Our certificates describe batches of research and cosmetic materials, and they take the place of no registration.
What the records do not say
- That we make the products. We do not; we supply products made by others.
- Any purity figure without a certificate behind it, under a batch number.
- That research-grade products are sterile, or fit for any use in people or animals. They are sold as laboratory materials and nothing more.
- What a research-grade product does. Product pages hold identity data only: the amino acid sequence, the formula, the mass and the CAS registry number.
