Frequently Asked Questions
Quality and COAs, storage, ordering, shipping, and research-use-only compliance.
About our compounds
What are peptides?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds. In research they are studied as highly specific signaling molecules. P3X Labs supplies them strictly as research compounds.
How do peptides differ from proteins?
Peptides are short chains, typically 2 to 50 amino acids. Proteins are longer chains, often more than 50 amino acids. Peptides are commonly studied as signaling molecules.
Are your compounds synthetic or naturally derived?
All compounds are synthetically produced using modern peptide synthesis, which supports high purity and batch-to-batch consistency.
Do your products contain additives or preservatives?
No. Products are free from unnecessary additives, fillers, or preservatives.
What form do products ship in?
Products ship as lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder for stability and shelf life. We do not sell pre-mixed liquid product.
Do you offer pre-formulated blends?
Yes. We offer blends such as BPC-157 / TB-500 and CJC-1295 & Ipamorelin, alongside our category Stacks.
Can I request a compound that is not listed?
We expand the catalog regularly. Contact us to ask about availability or upcoming products.
Quality and Certificates of Analysis
How do you verify quality and purity?
Every batch is independently tested by an accredited third-party laboratory for identity, purity, and contaminants, with results documented in a Certificate of Analysis. See our COA Process.
What purity do you report?
Purity is reported per batch, typically at or above 99%, measured by HPLC, with identity confirmed by mass spectrometry.
Are your products third-party tested?
Yes. Independent testing confirms identity, purity, and endotoxin, and is the basis for every COA. See our Testing Methodology.
Do you provide a Certificate of Analysis?
Yes. Every lot ships with a batch-specific COA. Scan the QR code on the vial to open that batch's COA.
How do I verify my product is authentic?
Each vial carries a lot number in the canonical FDT-YYYY-NNNNNN format and a scannable QR code that opens that batch's COA. The same lot number appears on our records and the shipping manifest.
Are your products tested for contaminants?
Yes. Endotoxin is screened using the LAL assay and reported in EU/mg on the COA, alongside identity and purity results.
Storage and handling
How should I store lyophilized product?
Store lyophilized product cold and dry for long-term stability, away from moisture, heat, and light, following standard laboratory practice. A freezer at roughly -20°C (-4°F) is typical for long-term storage.
Do products degrade over time?
Yes. Peptides degrade with exposure to moisture, heat, and light. Proper storage helps preserve their integrity for research.
Ordering and shipping
How is pricing structured?
Straightforward per-vial pricing, with no coupon codes required. Our protocol Stacks bundle related compounds at a discount.
Where do you ship from and to?
Orders ship from our USA-based facility. See our Shipping Policy for regions and details.
How much is shipping, and when is it free?
Shipping rates and available methods are calculated at checkout based on destination and order weight. See our Shipping Policy.
How fast do orders ship?
In-stock orders are processed and dispatched the same or next business day. Orders placed on weekends or holidays are processed the next business day, and you receive a tracking number by email when the label is created.
Can I track my order?
Yes. Once your order ships, use the tracking number in your confirmation email to follow its progress.
Do you offer discreet packaging?
Yes. Orders ship in plain, discreet packaging with no product details on the exterior.
What if my order is damaged or lost?
Risk of loss passes to you on delivery to the carrier. If your order arrives damaged or is lost in transit, contact us and we will work with you and the carrier to resolve it.
Can I change my shipping address after ordering?
If your order has not yet shipped, contact us immediately and we may be able to update it. Once an order has shipped, the delivery address cannot be changed.
What is your returns policy?
Because these are research compounds, all sales are final. See our Terms of Service for the full policy.
Legal and compliance
Are your products FDA-approved?
No. Our products are research compounds and have not been evaluated or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for human or veterinary use.
Can these products be used in or on humans or animals?
No. Products are strictly for research and are not for human or veterinary consumption. Misuse is prohibited and may violate federal, state, or local laws.
Do I need a prescription to purchase?
No prescription is required, because products are sold exclusively for laboratory research. You are responsible for compliance with all applicable laws in your jurisdiction.
What does “For Research Use Only” mean?
It means products are intended exclusively for laboratory research and in vitro study. They are not for human or veterinary use or any medical purpose. See our Research Use Only Agreement.
Why can't you provide usage or administration guidance?
Because products are for research use only, we do not provide usage, administration, or application guidance of any kind, and we do not endorse use outside a laboratory research setting.
Are you a compounding pharmacy?
No. P3X Labs is a chemical supplier. It is not a compounding pharmacy or compounding facility under Section 503A, and not an outsourcing facility under Section 503B, of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
