AminoVault
USAminoVault is a US research-peptide vendor that publishes batch-specific Certificates of Analysis from the independent, ISO 17025-accredited MDx BioAnalytical Laboratory.
Verified 10/10 of 10 criteria · checked 2026-07-27
AminoVault hosts numerous freely downloadable CoAs on its /lab-tests/ page, tied to specific QC/lot numbers and produced by the named third-party lab MDx BioAnalytical Laboratory (ISO/IEC 17025 via PJLA, reportedly in a post-audit re-accreditation cycle in 2026). CoAs show mass-spec identification plus HPLC purity and, on at least some products, endotoxin analysis; the most recent are dated within three months of assessment. A CoA lookup is referenced at mdxbiolabs.com but could not be completed to authenticate a certificate, and no public recall/complaints policy was found.
Criterion-by-criterion evidence
Every score below is a recorded, dated observation. Where we could not verify a claim, the criterion is marked Unverified and excluded from the score (but it still counts against coverage).
| Criterion | Wt | Finding | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Publishes CoAsThe vendor publishes at least one certificate of analysis (CoA) on its own website. | 3 | ✔ Yes | Dedicated /lab-tests/ page hosts many downloadable CoA PDFs (Retatrutide, TB-500, GLP-3, Mots-C, GHK-Cu, BPC-157, etc.) served directly from the site. Source · 2026-07-27 |
| Batch-level CoAsCoAs are tied to a specific batch/lot number, not a single generic certificate per product. | 3 | ✔ Yes | CoAs carry distinct QC/lot identifiers (e.g. COA29151 / QC260639 for Retatrutide, QC250891 for TB-500, batch 115), i.e. per-batch rather than one generic cert. Source · 2026-07-27 |
| Third-party lab namedThe name of the laboratory that ran the analysis appears on the CoA. | 2 | ✔ Yes | Retatrutide CoA PDF metadata names MDx BioAnalytical Laboratory (contact [email protected], Jason Snitker, Operations Manager). Older CoAs (e.g. TB-500) show sections but the lab is less explicit. Source · 2026-07-27 |
| Independent / accredited labThe lab is independent of the vendor and/or accredited (ISO 17025), or is a recognised independent peptide lab (e.g. Janoshik, MZ Biolabs). | 2 | ✔ Yes | MDx BioAnalytical Laboratory (Texas, founded 2008) is an independent contract lab holding ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation from PJLA; third-party reports note it is in a post-audit re-accreditation cycle as of March 2026. Source · 2026-07-27 |
| CoA verifiable at sourceThe CoA can be authenticated on the laboratory's own website (e.g. a verification code) — actually tested, not just claimed. | 2 | ◐ Partial | CoA states 'COA: 29151 Searchable via: mdxbiolabs.com under Certificates of Analysis tab'; the MDx page shows a 'CoA Search' section but I could not complete an actual number lookup to authenticate a certificate. Source · 2026-07-27 |
| Identity + purity methodsWhich analytical methods are identifiable on the published CoAs. | 2 | ? Unverified HPLC + MS | CoA contains a 'Mass Identification' section; site describes RP-HPLC and LC-MS/MS, and MDx uses HPLC-DAD coupled to a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer. Source · 2026-07-27 |
| Freshness of the latest CoADate of the most recent CoA visible on the site. | 2 | ? Unverified < 3 months | Most recent visible CoA (GLP-3) carries PDF Create/Modify date 2026-07-01, within 3 months of the 2026-07-27 assessment date; several CoAs dated 2026-05/06. Source · 2026-07-27 |
| CoAs accessible before purchase, no accountCoAs can be viewed without a customer account or a prior purchase. | 2 | ✔ Yes | CoA PDFs are directly linked and downloadable from the public lab-tests page with no account or prior purchase required (HTTP 200). Source · 2026-07-27 |
| Sterility / endotoxin data publishedSterility or endotoxin (LAL) results are published in addition to purity. | 1 | ✔ Yes | Retatrutide CoA PDF includes an 'Endotoxin Analysis' section in addition to identity/purity; MDx advertises sterility and endotoxin testing capability. Not visible on every product CoA. Source · 2026-07-27 |
| Public complaints / recall handlingA public recall/complaint policy, or documented handling of a disputed batch. | 1 | ✘ No | No public recall or complaints/dispute-handling policy located on the site or in third-party sources. No FDA warning letter or documented CoA fraud found either (no red flag identified). Not verified — no evidence on record. |
