Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Welcome to the NutriMax Labs Peptide FAQ page. Here you'll find clear, concise answers to common questions about peptides, their research use, storage, and handling.
1. What are peptides?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as building blocks of proteins. In research, peptides are studied for their roles in biological functions such as cell signaling, hormone activity, and tissue regeneration.
2. Are your peptides intended for human consumption?
No. All peptides sold by NutriMax Labs are strictly for research purposes only. They are not intended for human or animal consumption, clinical use, or therapeutic applications.
3. How should peptides be stored?
For optimal stability, peptides should be stored:
- Lyophilized (powder form): in a freezer at -20°C or below
- Reconstituted (mixed with bacteriostatic water): refrigerated at 2–8°C and used within a few weeks
Always follow specific storage instructions provided with each peptide.
4. What is peptide purity and why does it matter?
Peptide purity refers to the proportion of the sample that is the intended peptide sequence. High purity (>98%) is critical for research accuracy and reliability. NutriMax Labs provides peptides with high purity levels verified through analytical testing.
5. What is the best way to reconstitute peptides?
Peptides are typically reconstituted with bacteriostatic water. The amount of solvent depends on the intended research concentration. We recommend using sterile practices and consulting relevant protocols for guidance.
6. Do you offer guidance on dosage for research?
NutriMax Labs does not provide specific dosing recommendations, as all peptides are for research use only. Researchers should consult scientific literature or research protocols to determine appropriate concentrations for their studies.
7. Where do NutriMax Labs peptides come from?
We source our peptides from reputable manufacturers with stringent quality controls, ensuring high purity and consistency suitable for research applications.
8. Do you ship peptides internationally?
Yes, we offer international shipping where regulations permit. It is the buyer’s responsibility to ensure compliance with local laws regarding the import of peptides for research purposes.
