Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about ordering research peptides from Iguana Peptides.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds. They are smaller than proteins and play crucial roles in biological processes. Research peptides are synthesized versions of naturally occurring or novel peptide sequences used in laboratory and scientific research settings.
No. All products sold by Iguana Peptides are strictly for laboratory and research purposes only. They are not intended for human or animal consumption, therapeutic use, or self-administration. By purchasing, you agree to use products exclusively for lawful research purposes.
All of our peptides are verified at 98%+ purity through independent third-party HPLC and mass spectrometry testing. Most compounds test at 99%+ purity. Every batch ships with a Certificate of Analysis documenting exact purity levels.
All compounds are synthesized and lyophilized in United States-based laboratories under strict quality control protocols. We do not source from overseas manufacturers. Every vial is traceable to its manufacturing origin.
A COA is a document from an independent testing laboratory that verifies the identity, purity, and composition of a specific batch of product. Our COAs include HPLC chromatograms, mass spectrometry data, and purity percentages specific to the batch number on your vial.
Lyophilized (freeze-dried) peptides should be stored at -20°C in a desiccated environment. Once reconstituted, peptides should be refrigerated at 2-8°C and used within the timeframe specified for that particular compound. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Orders placed before 2:00 PM EST ship the same business day. All orders include temperature-controlled packaging and full tracking information. Most domestic deliveries arrive within 2-3 business days.
We accept all major credit and debit cards through our secure Stripe payment gateway. Your payment information is encrypted and never stored on our servers.
Yes. Contact us directly for volume pricing on bulk research orders. We offer competitive rates for institutional and repeat purchasers.
Absolutely. Text us or email with the compound name and we will send you the most recent batch COA before you place an order. Transparency is non-negotiable for us.
Due to the nature of research chemicals, we cannot accept returns on opened products. Unopened products in original sealed packaging may be returned within 14 days for a full refund. If you receive a damaged or incorrect product, contact us immediately for a replacement.
Lyophilized peptides are typically reconstituted with bacteriostatic water (BAC water) or sterile water, depending on the specific compound and research protocol. We include reconstitution guidance with applicable orders. For specific reconstitution protocols, consult your research documentation or contact us.
