Research Peptide FAQ

Answers to the questions researchers most often ask before ordering from Elite Aminos.

What does "research use only" mean?
All Elite Aminos products are supplied strictly for in-vitro assays and preclinical laboratory research. They are not therapeutic products, are not FDA-approved, and are not intended for human or veterinary consumption, ingestion, or any in-vivo use.
Do I have to be 21 or older to purchase?
Yes. By placing an order you certify that you are at least 21 years of age and are a qualified researcher or professional purchasing for laboratory use.
Are Elite Aminos peptides third-party tested?
Yes. Every lot is manufactured to research-grade purity standards and third-party tested. Certificates of Analysis are available on request for institutional buyers — contact us with your order number.
How should I store research peptides?
Unreconstituted lyophilized peptides should be stored at or below 4°C, protected from light. Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, most peptides should be refrigerated at 2–8°C and used within the timeframe specified by your study protocol.
