THE RESEARCHER’S REFERENCE DESK

Clear information. Better prepared requests.

Three practical guides for comparing the catalog, reviewing documents and following your payment instructions. For a question about your own request, email support@planetpeptides.shop.

01 / BATCH DOCUMENTATION

How to read a Certificate of Analysis.

A COA records test results for an identified sample. Begin with the report’s identifiers; a clean layout or a large purity number is not a substitute for a material and batch match.

  1. Match the material and batch. Compare the material name, batch or lot identifier and specification with the material you are evaluating. A report from another batch does not verify yours.
  2. Check the issuing laboratory. Look for its name, report number, sample and test dates, and a verification route if one is supplied. Ask for the original document when details are incomplete.
  3. Read methods and results together. Identity, relative purity and material quantity are different measurements. LC–MS can characterize peptide structure and impurities; chromatographic results need their stated method and scope to be interpreted. One headline result cannot answer every question.
  4. Look for units and scope. Check what was measured, how it is reported, and whether the document describes limits or uncertainty. The report applies to its tested sample and measured parameters.
  5. Keep research references separate. A published paper explains a research question. It is not a laboratory test of the supplied batch.

02 / CATALOG QUANTITIES

Amount per vial × vials per pack × packs.

These are three separate numbers. Keep them separate and the pack math becomes much easier to compare.

Selected specification5 mg per vial
One pack10 vials
Listed across the pack50 mg
  1. Amount per vial: “5 mg” in this example is the listed amount in each vial, rather than 5 mg divided between ten vials.
  2. Vials per pack: “10 vials” describes the contents of one pack. Check the selected option: some catalog packs use a different count.
  3. Number of packs: two 10-vial packs contain 20 vials. In the example above, that lists 100 mg across those 20 vials.
  4. Compare like units. A listing in mg, mcg, IU or mL describes different quantities. Do not treat those units as interchangeable.
  5. Check blends separately. A blend’s total and component breakdown need to be stated clearly. If the breakdown or vial count is pending, ask support before requesting.

03 / VERIFIED PAYMENT DETAILS

The asset and the network must both match.

A coin or token name does not identify the receiving network by itself. The same asset may exist on multiple networks. Use only the exact instructions issued for your reviewed request.

  1. Wait for your request instructions. Do not reuse an address from an old order or an unsolicited message. Confirm your private request and approved amount first.
  2. Match every field. Check the asset, network, destination address, amount and any required memo or tag against the instructions. Copy the destination carefully and review it before sending.
  3. Check the sending screen. Wallets and exchanges may offer several networks for one asset. Select only the network named in your instructions; a different network can lead to a lost transfer.
  4. Include a memo or tag when required. Some receiving systems use that additional field to identify a transfer. An address alone may not be sufficient.
  5. Retain the transaction reference. Save the transaction identifier for your records. A screenshot or submitted reference does not itself confirm that payment was received; the store verifies the transfer independently.
