Peptides Direct
EUPeptides Direct is an EU-based (Cyprus) research-peptide vendor that runs a public, batch-level certificate-of-analysis database drawing on Janoshik and other named labs.
Verified 10/10 of 10 criteria · checked 2026-07-27
Peptides Direct publishes a public CoA database of roughly 72 batch-specific reports across 32 products, viewable without an account, from named labs including Janoshik Analytical, Liquilabs, Kovera, BT Labs, Freedom Diagnostics and Krause Analytical, with methods such as UHPLC, LC-MS and ICP-MS plus microbial and endotoxin data. The vendor is unusually transparent about provenance, disclosing that most reports are manufacturer-commissioned or community-submitted and that only three are self-paid full safety panels, and it openly states that neither Janoshik nor Liquilabs holds ISO 17025 accreditation. Reports link to verify.janoshik.com for lab-side verification, though no formal public recall or complaints policy was found on the site.
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 | Public CoA database on own site advertising ~72 reports across 32 products, no login required. Source · 2026-07-27 |
| Batch-level CoAsCoAs are tied to a specific batch/lot number, not a single generic certificate per product. | 3 | ✔ Yes | Reports tied to specific lots/batches, e.g. LYO-0260, LYO-0259, V2606-CJ55-2401, Lot 51926, with individual test dates. Source · 2026-07-27 |
| Third-party lab namedThe name of the laboratory that ran the analysis appears on the CoA. | 2 | ✔ Yes | Labs named on reports: Janoshik Analytical, Liquilabs (Czechia), Kovera, BT Labs, Freedom Diagnostics, Krause Analytical. 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 | Janoshik is a recognised independent peptide lab; site discloses tiering (49 manufacturer-commissioned, 20 community, 3 self-paid) and admits neither Janoshik nor Liquilabs holds ISO 17025 accreditation. 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 | Site states each Janoshik report carries a one-click link to verify.janoshik.com to confirm with the lab; the mechanism is genuine but I did not complete an independent lookup of a specific code.

| Identity + purity methodsWhich analytical methods are identifiable on the published CoAs. | 2 | ? Unverified HPLC + MS | Methods cited include UHPLC, LC-MS and ICP-MS for identity/purity/content, microbial and endotoxin testing per USP/Ph.Eur. Source · 2026-07-27 |
| Freshness of the latest CoADate of the most recent CoA visible on the site. | 2 | ? Unverified < 3 months | Most recent self-commissioned Liquilabs reports dated 29 Jun 2026, roughly one month before the 2026-07-27 review date. Source · 2026-07-27 |
| CoAs accessible before purchase, no accountCoAs can be viewed without a customer account or a prior purchase. | 2 | ✔ Yes | All reports described as publicly available and verifiable online; no account or prior purchase required to view. Source · 2026-07-27 |
| Sterility / endotoxin data publishedSterility or endotoxin (LAL) results are published in addition to purity. | 1 | ✔ Yes | Beyond purity, reports include microbial enumeration and endotoxin detection; 3 self-paid Liquilabs panels described as full safety panels with heavy-metals (ICP-MS). Source · 2026-07-27 |
| Public complaints / recall handlingA public recall/complaint policy, or documented handling of a disputed batch. | 1 | ✘ No | A Returns link exists in the footer but no public recall or complaints policy or documented disputed-batch handling was found; no FDA warning letter or CoA-fraud red flag identified.
