Frequently asked questions

Yes. Everything we sell is a laboratory research chemical, intended strictly for in-vitro research. Our products are not medicines, foods, dietary supplements, or cosmetics, and they are not for human or veterinary use.

Every batch is tested by an independent third-party laboratory: purity by reversed-phase HPLC and identity by mass spectrometry.
