IMPORTANT FOR DESTRUCTIVE TESTS
Ship one extra vial per destructive test.
A few of our methods consume the sample. To keep your COA honest about this exact lot, each destructive test needs its own aliquot from the same batch. Batch-conformity vials add one unit each on top.
Endotoxin (LAL)
≥ 1 mg
USP <85> gel-clot or kinetic-chromogenic
Sterility (USP <71>)
≥ 2 mg
14-day fluid thioglycolate + SCD culture — full vial consumed
Preservative efficacy (USP <51> PET)
≥ 30 g
28-day challenge on cosmetics/topicals — dedicated unopened unit
Short on material? HPLC purity, Identity, NPC, and TFA can run on a single shared aliquot of ~1 mg total. Destructive tests are the only ones that stack sample requirements.
Full service matrix
Every test, every matrix, one lab.
What we can run, across every category we accept. Add-on prices are per sample.
✓ Available— Not offered for this matrix+1 VIAL Destructive — extra aliquot required
Sample requirements
How much to send.
Minimums per matrix, plus the destructive-test rule for peptides. Short on sample? Ship what you have — we’ll flag which tests can run on reduced volume before we start.
DESTRUCTIVE-TEST RULE
+1 extra vial per compound, per destructive test.
Endotoxin (LAL), Sterility (USP <71>), and PET (USP <51>) are destructive — they consume the sample. Ship an identical, unopened vial from the same lot for each, plus one per batch-conformity vial you add.
